You can either cast hex bolts into the concrete or pour the concrete pad and install an-
chor bolts after the pad has cured. Drilling the pad for anchor bolts will generally require
the use of a hammer drill. For cast in bolts, we recommend two 6" long galvanized 5/8"
diameter bolts with about 2 ½" of the threaded end sticking up above the concrete. The
bolts should be centered on the pad and spaced 17.7" apart. Note the tower tilt align-
ment direction required in
Figure 3.
For non-concrete installations the channel plate that faces towards the gin-pole anchor
should be assembled in the extended position, as shown in
Figure 3. When being bolted to a concrete pad the channel plate should be assembled
in the retracted position. Securely bolt the Base Plate to the concrete pad. Install the
ground rods adjacent to the concrete pad.
