Installing the baseplate.
There are a number of different fastening techniques that can be used to fasten the baseplate in position. The standard kit is supplied with J-bolts
so that the baseplate can be cast in concrete. While this method offers a nice solid base it takes more than 48hrs to install as the concrete must cure
properly before continuing with the installation. Whichever mounting method you opt for, the position of the base plate will always remain the same.
Here are the dimensions to use when positioning the base plate. The baseplate should be installed above the highest point of flooding that may occur
with the run off of water down the driveway.
