OPTION 2 -
IN-GROUND ANCHOR
For installation you will require:
• Wheelbarrow and Spade.
•
Concrete Mix - Not included. Can be purchased from your closest building supply store eg Home Depot / Bunnings.
• Spare wooden planks or other bracing materials
•
Hex Key Set. This is included with the Umbrella.
Step 1
Choose your site and ensure the ground is level. Check for buried utilities.
Step 2
Dig your footing hole at least 500mmW x 500mmL x 600mmH / 1’7” x 1’7” x 1’11”. It is recommended that
you flare the footing hole slightly at the base for extra stability - See
Figure 8.
Step 3
Using the Screws supplied with your Umbrella, fit the spigot to the In-Ground Anchor. - See
Figure 7.
Step 4
Prepare the concrete mix in your wheelbarrow.
Step 5
Position the In-Ground Anchor in the hole and use the spirit level on the Spigot to ensure the anchor
is level. See
Figure 7.3
for where the ground level should be. Ensure orientation is correct for how you
wish to position your umbrella - see
Figure 1
and
Figure 8
(pages 6 and 11).
Step 6
Pour concrete into the hole to the bottom of the Spigot base.
DO NOT cover any part of the Serenity Spigot. See
Figure 7.
Step 7
Use bracing and support to ensure the In-Ground Anchor and Spigot stay level.
Step 8
Allow at least 24-hours for the concrete to cure - your chosen product will have a recommended time on the
packaging so double check this.
Step 9
Slide your Rotation Plate over the Spigot and move on to
Stage 4.
