A general installation practice is described below for reference. Adapt the instructions as needed for local requirements,
practices, or conditions.
WARNING!
The foundation vault may be very heavy. Do not place any part of your body under the vault
during lifting. Handle with care to avoid personal injury or damage to the vault.
To install a foundation vault
Transport the foundation vault to installation site.
Using a suitable lifting device, lift the vault into position above the foundation hole.
Lower the pad onto the gravel base, making sure the conduits and earth ground wire pass inside the vault as it
descends.
Adjust the vault positioning on the gravel base until it is stable and level.
Backfill and grade around the vault perimeter with soil to secure it in place.
Verify that the vault remains level. Adjust as required.
