INSTALLATION STEP 1: POSITION THE PEDESTAL Locate the approximate area where you want the pedestal to go before cutting the hole. The usual position for pedestals is centred between side walls. NOTE: Due to the pedestals being man made, the distance to the centre may vary from 245 to 255mm. - Page 6 If there is a joist in the way, either reposition the waste hole OR install trimmer joists to each end of the cut joist, and fix all connections with galvanized framing anchors with 4 nails each leg (refer to diagram below).
