Place the mounting template into position in the pad form as shown in
8.
Fasten the mounting template to the wooden stakes.
9.
Level the mounting template on the stakes so that the top of the plate is flush with or slightly above the top of the pad.
10.
Allow the conduits to extend above the template approximately 3 inches (8 cm). Make sure that each conduit extends
vertically through the template, perpendicular to the hole.
Pouring the Concrete
Perform the following steps to pour the concrete:
1.
Cover the conduit openings to keep wet concrete from entering them.
2.
Pour concrete into the forms until level or slightly above the forms.
3.
Puddle the concrete along the edges of the forms, then use a straight piece of lumber or equivalent to level the concrete.
4.
If not using the mounting template, then before the concrete hardens, install locally provided screw anchors with 1/2-13
threads. Place them in the pad using the dimensions shown in
and
5.
For additional finishing, wait until the pad no longer looks as if water is standing on top of it, and trowel the concrete smooth.
6.
In a moist environment, allow the concrete to cure for a minimum of seven days. You may remove the forms after the second
day.
7.
If you are installing screw anchors after the concrete has hardened, then perform the following steps to install them:
•
Obtain expansion-type anchors with 1/2-13 threads.
•
Determine the proper hole size based on the size and type of your expansion-type anchors.
•
Drill holes in the pad. See
for the proper placement of the holes.
•
Insert the expansion-type anchors into the holes.

Mounting the Cabinet on the Pad
Perform the following steps to mount the cabinet on the pad:
1.
Before placing the cabinet, verify that the pad has been prepared and the conduit for electrical feed and distribution cabling
has been installed according to local electrical codes and practices.
2.
Open the door, and secure the wind latch located in the bottom left corner.
3.
Place the rubber gasket on the pad over the conduit and the template. If you are not using the template, then place the
rubber gasket over the conduit in the pad so that the cabinet will be properly positioned on it. (See
4.
Using proper lifting procedures, place the cabinet in the mounting position on the pad.
5.
Secure the cabinet to the pad using the rubber gasket, the hardware from the template, or customer-supplied 1/2-inch (1.3
