Do these steps to install each kit:
1. Place the Unistrut (Item 1) on a flat surface.
2. Slide both spring nuts (Item 2) into the Unistrut channel. Make sure to seat the springs
against the interior wall of the channel.
3. Loosely fasten the Pipe Blocks (Item 3) to the spring nuts using (2X each) M8 hex bolts
(Item 4), flat washers (Item 5), and lock washers (Item 6).
4. Position the semi-assembled Unistrut (Item 1) and Pipe Blocks (Item 3) against the
mounting pole, then slide the Pipe Blocks until they contact either side of the mounting
pole. Make sure that the Pipe Blocks are centered within the Unistrut (Item 1). Tighten the
mounting hardware.
5. Slide the Floating Strap Bracket (Item 7) into the Unistrut channel (Item 1). Make sure
that the bracket studs face outward.
6. Loosely assemble the Floating Strap Bracket to the Pipe Strap (Item 8) with (2X each) M8
flat washers (Item 5), lock washers (Item 6), and hex nuts (Item 9).
7. Holding the kit subassembly in place against the mounting pole, slide the Fixed Strap
Bracket (Item 10) into the Unistrut channel (Item 1) until it abuts the adjacent Pipe Block
(Item 3).
8. Wrap the Pipe Strap (Item 8) around the pole, fitting the strap onto the Fixed Strap
Bracket (Item 10) studs as snugly as possible. Score or otherwise mark a trim line on the
Pipe Strap (Item 8) then, using the tin snips, trim the Pipe Strap to suit as shown in the
side view provided in Figure 2-9.
9. Remove the Fixed Strap Bracket (Item 10) from the Unistrut channel (Item 1) and
assemble the Strap Tensioner Bolt (Item 11) to the Fixed Strap Bracket (Item 10). Note
that the bolt head will abut the interior wall of the channel.

Pipe Block (Item 3).
11. Secure the Pipe Strap (Item 8) using the Fixed Strap Bracket (Item 10), with (2X each)
M8 hex nuts (Item 9), flat washers (Item 5), and lock washers (Item 6).
12. As shown in the side view provided in Figure 2-9, secure the Fixed Strap Bracket (Item
10) in place using the Strap Tensioner Bolt (Item 11) with (1X each) M8 flat washer
(Item5), lock washer (Item 6), and hex nut (Item 9); tighten as needed.
