FIGURE 3-2. Base Assembly
Thread two nuts onto each J-bolt, leaving 2.5 cm (1 in) of thread visible
between the nuts and end of the J-bolt. Attach the J-bolts to the template with
another nut. Angle each J-bolt so it points away from the center of the
template.
Place the two 46 cm (18 in) pieces of lumber over the form, leaving room for
the J-bolts. Lower the J-bolts into the hole until the template comes to rest on
the 46 cm (18 in) boards. Optional: Use wood screws to anchor the template to
the two 46 cm (18 in) boards.
Fill the hole and form with concrete.
FIGURE 3-3. Base Embedded in Concrete
Remove the template after the concrete has cured. Leave the two nuts below
the template on each J-bolt in place. Insert the pole into the pedestal, and
tighten the six bolts evenly.
