Mounting with the EMI Gravity Mounting Kit
This kit is ordered separately from EMI (part number 1000-0000-0162).
Grade Considerations:
1.
Ground/gravel should be normally dry and have good drainage.
2.
Ground/gravel should be level or very close.
Procedure:
1.
Lift and set the WIC On The Ground (Gravity) Foundation Kit in the desired
location. The WIC On The Ground (Gravity) Foundation Kit ships assembled,
stairs separate of course, so lift and set it on grade in the desired location. If
using a forklift and the forks are not long enough to get under all three bars of
the frame, make sure the frame does not tilt over during lifting. This can be
accomplished with weight on the two bars the forks did get under, or by
removing the footers from the bar the forks did not get under. This is aimed at
safety, as the frame can withstand tilting. The weight of the frame is 300 lbs.
The weight of the footers are 31 lbs each.
2.
Level the frame by adjusting the leveling hardware between the frame and the
nine footers. Be sure to maintain 18 inches from grade to the top of the frame,
which is the bottom of the WIC. Start by leveling the four corners first then adjust the remaining footers.
3.
Lift and set the WIC on the WIC On The Ground (Gravity) Foundation Kit in desired location. Be sure to bolt the WIC base to
the frame prior to releasing all of the weight of the WIC on the frame.
4.
Once all hardware is installed connecting the WIC base to the frame, tighten and secure the hardware.

Mounting with the EMI Extension Mounting Kit
This kit is ordered separately from EMI (part number D1007-0000-0012).
This kit includes four concrete pad extensions for the four corners of the WIC.
1.
Set the four concrete pad extensions on the four corners of the concrete pad in
the desired locations (Figure 10).
2.
Lift and set the WIC on the extensions. Ensure that the WIC is level, and bolt
the WIC base to the extensions prior to releasing all of the weight of the WIC
on the extensions.
3.
Once all hardware is installed connecting the WIC base to the extensions,
tighten and secure the hardware.
