STEP 5

(Installing The POWERSIDE Column)

1. Before proceeding, double the check measurements

and make certain that the bases of each Column are

aligned with the chalk line.

2. Using the base plate on the POWERSIDE column as a

guide, drill each anchor hole in the concrete approximately

6” deep for 12K and 15K models and 8” for 18K models

using a rotary hammer drill and 3/4” concrete drill-bit. To

assure full holding power, do not ream the hole or allow the

drill to wobble. (See Fig. 5.1)

3. After drilling, remove dust thoroughly from each hole

making certain that the Column remains aligned with the

chalk line.

4. Assemble the washers and nuts on the anchors then

tap into each hole with a hammer until the washer rests

against the Base Plate. Be sure that if shimming is required

that enough threads are left exposed. (See Fig. 5.2)

5. Insert the shims as necessary under the Base Plate so

that when the anchor bolts are tightened, the Columns will

be plumb. (See Fig. 5.3)

6. With the shims and anchor bolts in place, tighten by

securing the nut to the base then turning 3-5 full turns

clockwise. DO NOT use an impact wrench for this

procedure. (See Fig. 5.4)

STEP 6

(Mounting The OFFSIDE Column)

1. Position the OFFSIDE Column at the designated chalk

locations and secure to the oor following the same proce-

dures as outlined in STEP FIVE; Items 1-6.
