Step 5Stem mount
1) Start by cutting the PVC "T" joint lengthwise through the middle (See the detailed diagram with the "cut line")
2) Place the PVC reducer fitting into the top of the T as tightly as you can.
3) Pre-drill two 3/32" holes through the T and adapter for the two screws and install the two screws.
4) Next place the 1/4" bolt through the L-angle bracket, rubber washer and through the neck of the T. This is to check the length of the bolt as it will need to be cut. See the notes in the diagram.
5) Once the bolt is cut to length, assemble the parts as follows (per the diagram).
6) First the bolt goes through the L-angle bracket, then the rubber washer and through the top of the PVC "T" and reducer.
7) Now from the bottom insert two (2) 1/4" x 1" fender washers against the lip of the reducer fitting and push the bolt through.
8) Now you can place the lock washer over the end of the bolt and start threading the 1/4" nut.
9) Tighten the nut and bolt until the bracket is snug against the PVC fitting.
10) Drill several small holes in the side of the upper section of the PVC just below the bottom of the 1/4" - 20 nut (see diagram).
11) Use a small file or hack saw blade to form a slot that will allow the hose clamp to pass through the PVC (just under the 1/4" nut).
12) Pass the hose clamp through the slots formed in the previous step and then set this part of the assembly aside until the final assembly.
