Application Procedure
Preparation of Machinery and Foundation
Before placing the machine, loose and damaged areas in the concrete should be cleaned and damaged areas should be repaired. Surfaces where grout will be applied must be roughened. Any foreign matter that may affect performance, such as oil, grease and dust on the bolt and base surface, must be cleaned. Air discharge holes must be drilled in the base plate beforehand. The machine should be placed, its position and scale should be adjusted, and its position should not be changed after that. If the adjustment wedges (shims) will be removed later, they should be lightly oiled to prevent the grout from sticking. After placing and adjusting the machine, the foundation concrete must be saturated with water 6 hours before grout pouring.
Preparation of Molds
Molds should be made of solid material that will not absorb or leak the water of the grout mortar, and should be mounted to withstand the forces it will encounter during the process. On the side where the grout mortar will be poured, a casting gap of about 5 cm should be left between the edge of the base plate and the mold. In order to give the grout mortar the pressure that will enable it to spread, the mold height should be considered on the casting side depending on the situation. In order to fill the bottom of very large sized plates, it may be necessary to take precautions such as creating a pressure height of up to 1.5 m or using equipment such as pumps and pipes, pouring the first batch with mortar containing 5% more water than normal and making the surface of the foundation concrete slippery. The edges of the molds must remain free of gaps to prevent leakage and pressure loss.
Mixing
The appropriate amount of water described on the packaging is poured into a clean mixing bowl. While BYK 5014 GROUT is slowly added into the water, it is mixed with a 400-600 speed electric mixer and a suitable mixing tip for approximately 3-4 minutes until it becomes homogeneous. There should be no lumps left in the material. After the material is left to rest for 3 minutes, it is mixed again for 1 minute to make it ready for application.
Mixing Rates
For 25 kg bag of BYK 5014 GROUT approximately 4,25-4,75 lt of water should be used.

Watch Points
• BYK 5014 GROUT should be applied within 45 minutes at +20°C.
• For outdoor applications, it should be protected from sun, rain, wind and frost for the first 24 hours.
• Working and reaction times of cement-based repair mortars are affected by air temperature, humidity and ground temperatures. High temperatures accelerate hydration and the working time is accordingly shortened. Low temperatures slow down hydration, which increases
operating time. In order for the material to complete its cure, the applied ground temperature and ambient temperature must not fall below the minimum allowed temperature.
• It should not be used in contact with plasters whose pH value is lower than 5.5.
• A vibrator should never be used while placing the material.
• For applications at low temperatures (between +5°C and +10°C), BYK 5014 GROUT should be stored in warm places.
• Mixing water should be heated between +30°C and +50°C and used. Areas to be filled with BYK 5014 GROUT should be covered and protected
from cold before application.
• For applications at high temperatures (between +25°C and +30°C), BYK 5014 GROUT should be stored in cold places. Mixing water should be
made using cold or even ice.
