Page 7: Installation
INSTALLATION Footings There are two common types of array footing, Set and Fastened. Set Footing A Set Footing is the most common method for installing the Post Base. It involves setting the large square base into the concrete footing. Prepare a posthole min 600mm wide (A), to a depth (B) of 600 – 800mm (double the width and pre pour a thick layer of concrete into the bottom of the hole, measurements for soft sandy ground) -
Page 8: Fastened Footing
Fastened Footing The array post base is designed with the option to be bolted to pre-set bolts in a concrete floor or block if desired. 200mm pre-set anchor bolts, or sleeve anchor bolts Position post over bolts and tighten down. or(minimum) Attach post top to post base with 4 bolts/nuts/washers provided. -

Page 10: Beam
Beam Place the Beam in the Tube Cap flanges and fasten with M16 All Thread and nut. Angle Adjusters Place the 2 x angle adjustment tubes between the beam and the tube cap, on the outside of each. Fasten with the M16 All Thread and nuts once you select the angle desired (see next page). It is recommended positioning the beam flat for assembly and adjusting for angle once complete. - Page 11 Adjust the angle of elevation by attaching the Adjustment Tubes to the hole positions required corresponding to the required angle. Please refer to the illustration below.

SOLAR PANELS Placing the solar panels on the array. Use end and mid clamps to attach solar panels to the rails. Clamps are inserted from above (see below). With the array at an angle of 0˚ (flat) place the first panel/s on the rails with even overlap at both ends and then place the mid clamps in position but do not fully tighten. - Page 14 Once fitted with the required number of solar modules, be sure to double check tightness of all mechanical fixings. Adjust array for optimal angle when complete (see pg. 11) WATERBOY solar array installation is now complete.
