Autostacker™ Parking Lift 18 P/N 5900248 — Rev. B — May 2021
Anchor Bases to the Ground
Each Base has three holes in them for anchoring to the ground, with two holes placed in the front of
each Leg Assembly and one located in the back.
Before you anchor your Autostacker, make sure the Leg
Assemblies are correctly aligned. Measure to
verify that the Left and Right Chalk Lines are parallel, then measure diagonally to make sure the two
diagonal measurements are the same; this ensures your layout is correct.
⚠ CAUTION Poor alignment can affect how your Autostacker raises and lowers. Re-aligning the
Leg Assemblies
after
you anchor them into place is difficult. It is well worth your
time to align your Autostacker correctly before you anchor it into place.
⚠ WARNING You
must
wear OSHA-approved (publication 3151) personal protective equipment
at all times when installing, using, maintaining, or repairing the Autostacker: leather
gloves, steel-toed work boots, eye protection, back belts, and hearing protection
are
mandatory
.
Concrete specifications are:
• Depth: 4.25 inches
• PSI: 3,000 psi, minimum
• Cured: 28 days, minimum
Anchor Bolt specifications are:
• Length: 4.75 inches
• Diameter: .75 inch
• Anchor Torque: 85 – 95 pound feet (do not
torque more than 105 or less than 80)
The following drawing shows the locations of the Anchor Bolt holes in the Bases.
To anchor your Autostacker to the ground:
1. Verify the Bases are where you want them; once Anchor Bolts are torqued into position, they are
not
easily removed.
2. Using the holes in the Autostacker Bases as guides, drill the holes 4 inches / 101 mm deep.
⚠ CAUTION Do
not
drill all the way through the Concrete; if you punch completely through the
slab, you could compromise the holding strength of the Anchor Bolt.
When drilling, go in straight; do not let the drill wobble.
Use a carbide bit (conforming to the current ANSI B212.15).
The diameter of the drill bit
must
be the same as the
diameter of the Anchor Bolt. So if you are using a ¾ inch
diameter Anchor Bolt, for example, use a ¾ inch diameter drill
bit.
