Installing S&C Mounting Pedestals
Step 19
Cut the steel straps that bind the mounting
pedestals and cross base. Unbolt the mounting
pedestals from the skids.
Step 20
Install the pedestals.
a. To lift a pedestal into position, attach eye-
bolts to the holes along the top gusset of
each pedestal. Make sure that the grounding
pads are positioned properly for the installa-
tion.
Also make sure that the pedestals
are positioned such that holes for the
connection enclosure face the desired
direction, per the catalog drawing.
b. Adjust the lower set of anchor-bolt nuts to
generally plumb and level the pedestals. The
upper set of anchor-bolt nuts should be only
loosely attached at this time. See Figure 21.
Step 21
Install the cross base.
a. Attach four suitable lifting slings to the cross
base.
b. Lift the cross base atop the pedestals. Avoid
sudden starts and stops.
c. Position the cross base on the pedestals.
Make sure the cross base is positioned
such that the side to which the conduit
assembly will be attached, is facing the
desired direction for the installation.
Refer to the catalog drawing. See Figure 22.
