Concrete And Anchoring - rav KPH-40ECGA Installation Manual

16.

Concrete and Anchoring:

Concrete shall have a compression strength of at
least C20/25 and a minimum thickness of 200 mm.
Drill (10) 3/4" dia. holes in concrete floor using
holes in column base plate as a guide. See Fig.
24 for hole depth, hole spacing, and edge distance
requirements.
CAUTION:
DO NOT install on asphalt or other
similar unstable surfaces. Columns are
supported only by anchors in floor.
IMPORTANT:
Using the horse shoe shims
provided, shim each column base until
each column is plumb. If one column has to
be elevated to match the plane of the other
column, full size base shim plates should be
used (Reference the Shim Kit).

Shims
(1/2" Max.)
NOTE: If more than 2 horse shoe shims are used at any of the
column anchor bolts, pack non-shrink grout under the unsupported
area of the column base. Insure shims are held
tightly between the baseplate and floor after torquing anchors.

Recheck columns for plumb. Tighten anchor bolts
to an installation torque of 110 ft-Ibs.(149Nm). Shim
thickness MUST NOT exceed 1/2"(13 mm). when
using the 5-1/2" (140mm) long anchors provided with
the lift, Fig. 23. Adjust the column extensions plumb.
If anchors do not tighten to 110 ft-Ibs.(149Nm)
installation torque, replace concrete under the
column base with a 3960mmX1875mmX200mm
concrete under each column base with a 4' x 4' x 6"
(1219 x 1219 x 152mm) thick 3000 PSI (20684 kPa)
minimum concrete pad keyed under and flush with
the top of existing floor. Let concrete cure before
installing lifts and anchors.
NOTE: Use rectangular shims

INSURE shims are held tightly
between base plate and floor
after torquing anchors.
