Pedestal Installation

Foundation Construction

1. Prepare a hole for the foundation and
wiring conduit using the minimum
recommended dimensions shown in
Figure 4.
*
Refer to local electrical codes for
required depth of buried wiring .
2. Trench to the foundation site as
required for each wiring run.
3. Position straight and sweep elbow
conduit sections in foundation hole
as shown. Tape the conduit ends to
seal out dirt. Backfill soil to form a 6"
(15.2cm) foundation depth. Conduit
should not extend more than 2"
above the finished top surface of the
foundation.
4. Prepare the sides of the foundation
hole with wood forms.
5. Prepare the mounting bolt positioner
with the 5/16 x 4-1/2" bolts and nuts
(provided) as shown in Figure 3. The
threads should extend 2" (51mm)
from the top surface of the bolt
positioner.
6. Pour concrete into the formed
foundation hole. Press the mounting
bolt positioner into the concrete
until it is flush and level with the
foundation surface and aligned with
the conduit.
7. Finish the concrete with a level flat
area for the pedestal base (13" x 13"
[33cm x 33cm] for the metal pedestal
or 16" x 16" [41cm x 41cm] for the
plastic pedestal). To prevent pooling
at the base of the pedestal, add a
slight taper away from the pedestal
base contact area. Allow concrete to
sufficiently harden before continuing.
8. Remove the hex nuts from the
mounting studs. Carefully position the
controller onto the studs. Install a flat
washer and a hex nut on each stud and
tighten securely.
