INSTALLATION — Continued
Protective cover at pole-unit mounting
position. See Step 13
Eyebolts (not furnished)

Figure 4. Hoisting the cross base.
Step 3
Attach four suitable lifting slings to the cross base. See
Figure 4. Unbolt the base from the shipping skid and lift
the base atop the mounting pedestals, as shown on the
catalog drawing. Avoid sudden starts and stops. Verify
that the switch-position indicator on the base is visible on
the desired side (this is also the side on which the opera-
tor door will open).
Step 4
Loosely bolt the cross base to the mounting pedestals
using the ⁵⁄₈—112¹⁄₄ hex-head galvanized steel cap
screws, flat washers, and self-locking hex nuts furnished.
Then— using a level—verify that the cross base is hori-
zontal, both lengthwise and side-to-side; adjust the lower
set of anchor-bolt nuts at the pedestals to achieve this
condition
Step 5
Securely bolt the cross base to the mounting pedestals.
Shims are furnished and should be installed as necessary
between the cross base and the mounting pedestals, to
compensate for any irregularities greater than ¹⁄₈ inch
between the mating surfaces.
Step 6
Check the lower set of anchor-bolt nuts at each mounting
pedestal to verify that all nuts are in contact with the
bottom of the pedestal. Hand-tighten these anchor-bolt
nuts as necessary. Then securely tighten the upper set of
anchor-bolt nuts at each mounting pedestal.

Anchor bolts
Two nuts and two flat washers
provide leveling means
Step 2
Install the mounting pedestals. See Figure 3. Make cer-
tain that the grounding pad on each mounting pedestal is
properly positioned for this particular installation.
Adjust the lower set of anchor-bolt nuts at each pedes-
tal to generally plumb and level the pedestal. The upper
set of anchor-bolt nuts should be only loosely attached at
this time.
