4. Without touching the meter body or adjacent pipes, position the rod as close to the
center of the pit as possible. Drive the rod into the ground. Ensure the rod remains
vertical.
Note The rod shown has a protective end cap to protect the rod while driving it into
the ground.
5. Drive the rod into the ground so the top of the rod is approximately three and one-half
inches below the bottom of the pit lid.
If the rod cannot be driven in enough to equal the necessary spacing, cut the
remaining rod length to the proper height using an abrasive cut off tool.
If the rod is driven to the correct depth but remains loose in the soil, replace the
rod with a longer version.
Caution Cutting fiberglass creates dust particles. Practice proper safety precautions
when using cut-off tools to prevent exposure to fiberglass dust particles.
