Using the base plate on the MAINSIDE column as a guide, drill each anchor hole in the concrete
to at minimum 5

” concrete drill-bit. To assure full holding power,
do not ream the hole or allow the drill to wobble. (See Anchoring Details on Page 4)
4.
After drilling, remove dust thoroughly from each hole using compressed air and/or wire brush. Make certain
that the column remains aligned with the chalk line during this process.
5.
Assemble the washers and nuts on the anchors then tap into each hole with a block of wood or rubber
hammer until the washer rests against the base plate. Be sure that if shimming is required that enough
threads are left exposed.
6.
Using a level, check column plumb for every side (Fig. 8). If shimming is required, use 3/4” washers or shim
stock, placing shims as close as possible to the hole locations. This will prevent bending the column base
plates.

STEP 5: (Mounting the OFFSIDE Column and the Drive-Over Base Plate)
1. Position the OFFSIDE column at the designated chalk locations.
2. Using the Drive-Over Base Plate bolts provided, make sure that the distance between the two columns is
correct (Fig.9).
3. Using a tape measure to measure the distance between the opposite corners of the base plate on the
columns. Equal values will ensure the lifting arms will be square.
Note: Test fitting the Drive-Over Base is recommended to ensure proper column spacing, alignment & fit.
4. Set Drive-Over Base Plate aside, it is to be mounted after hose & cable installations in STEPS 7 & 8.
5. Secure OFFSIDE column to the floor following the same procedures as outlined in STEP 4.
