hoseclampandaslotscrewdriver.Directtheotherendofthe

hosetowhereveryourdownspoutoriginallydrained,which

shouldbeeitherasplashpadorsewerdrain.

Step 5 Attach Lid & Place

Placethelidonthebarrelanda󰀩xusingthefourprovided

screws(#6x1.5”)andacrossheadscrewdriver.Hand-tighten
