GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND INSTALLATION
Removing the clamp
Keep the allen screws and allen wrench in a safe place as they will
be needed to secure the Stanchion to the Base in the event of
a ood.
Maintaining the Base
1. There are (4) 1/2 in. - grub screws with every Stanchion.
These must be coated with a waterproof grease or anti-seize
compound and screwed into the holes on each plate. This will
protect the threads in the plate and allow trafc to move
across the anchor plate without damaging the threads
(See illustration Q).
2. These plugs should be ush with the top of the Base and no
deeper. They should also be re-greased periodically and after
every use to ensure they will come out when needed.
