- - If you have a long longitudinal rip install first only a few fasteners : at the beginning, in the middle and the end of the rip.
Then check if there are no displacements along the rip. In the next Step you can install one fasteners every meter and check again if all works good before filling the rip. During the process the belt must be on a flat surface without any tension in order to avoid any displacements between both sides of the belt rip. >
