    Annex 5:

    ItemProblemsMethod
    Chemical boltWhether the chemical bolt is loosening or not1. The quality of concrete need to be improved and the concrete foundation need to be changed if the problem goes to the strength of the foundation. Screw bolt or the chemical agent need to be changed if there is problem with the screw bolt itself.
    Screw boltWhether the chemical bolt is loosening or not1. Re tighten the screw bolts.
    2. Change the supplier.
    Clampwhether the clamp is deformed or not1. Re install the clamps.
    ModuleWhether the modules are flat and of the same inclination degrees1. Mounting kit need to be changed or reformed.
    2. Adjust the mounting kit into the same level.
    Mounting kitwhether the mounting kit gets rusty or not1. Mounting kit should be handled with care so as to protect the hot dip zinc layer. Crash should be avoid during installation.
    2. zinc rich epoxy primer should be painted once the hot dip zinc layer is damaged with the thickness of no less than 120μm. Once the mounting kit get rusty, sand paper can be used to clean the rust and zinc rich epoxy primer or other protection painting material can be used later after the cleaning.
