5. Place the panels. Position the panels on the prepared subgrade with geotextile face down. Cutto shape with skill saw with fine-toothed blade (in reverse position). Use protective gloves to avoid abrasions. Top of cell panels should be 1 cm (10 mm) below adjacent hard surfaced pavements or final grade. 6.All hard surfaces abutting areas to receive Gravel Surfacing shall be in place prior to commencing work. Finished gravel work should be no more than 1/2" below adjacent hard surfaces. 7. Place first row of panels against a stationary edge if possible. The panels have interlocking connectors. You can install panels 'side by side' or in a 'herring bone" pattern; either method works. No anchors are needed for gravel stabilizer panels installed on slopes less than 20 degrees. 8. Fill cells with chosen infill. Maximum particle size of granular infill material should not exceed'/z'. Minimum particle size can be 1/8"to allow porosity.Cell walls must be sufficiently covered with infill to prevent any equipment or load bearing vehicular traffic from damaging the grid. 9. Install edge restraint if desired. Standard metal, plastic, concrete edge restraints orconcrete curbing may be used. 10. You can: Water stones thoroughly for an immediate finished look! Post-Placement A. Reserve a few 5 g. buckets of infill stones on site to top dress as necessary over the next year. Once the area is fully packed, top dressing is no longer necessary. B. Snow plowing — Use shovels or blades with plastic blades. If using a metal blade, set blade 2" above gravel surface, leaving a layer of snow. This system is free draining during freeze/thaw events. C. Use of salt for de-icing is allowed.
