The Foundation Kit included in the FS11 delivery contains the required
equipment for both mounting when casting the pad and mounting to an
existing surface. The triangle-shaped drilling template can be used as an
auxiliary device that has to be removed before mounting the base plate.
Mounting when Casting Pad
To mount the FS11 system while casting the pad, proceed as follows:
1. Screw on the three reinforcing plates to the lower end of the
foundation screws as in Figure 6 on page 30. To prevent the plates
from rotating after their correct position has been found, destroy
the threads above and below them by hammering.
2. Fix the drilling template to the upper ends of the foundation screws
with six M16 nuts.
3. Embed the assembly in the concrete foundation as shown in Figure
6 on page 30.
4. After the concrete has set, remove the template.
