WARNING
➤ DokaXlight panels must be securely braced

➤ Fix panels to the ground with plumbing struts or
panel struts (see the section headed 'Plumbing

This stabilises the panels so that they cannot fall

NOTICE
Never use a sledge-hammer to plumb and
align the panels!
This would damage the profiles of the gangs.
➤ Use only proper plumbing tools (e.g. a spe-
cial pry-bar) that cannot cause any damage.
➤ Continue lining up panels in this way, clamp them
together (see the section headed 'Inter-panel con-
nections') and fix them to the ground with plumbing
struts or panel struts.
The panel assembly can now be exactly plumbed
and aligned.

NOTICE
➤ Comply with the stipulated stripping times.
➤ Beginning with the opposing formwork, dismount the
