Installation of Base
for the Four Leg Base Stand

(continued)

The second base assembly is our Four Leg Base Stand (Figure #2). This unit is designed to
go above ground on a concrete pad. You can install this either of two ways; number one, you
can request a template of the base stand and install J -bolts in the concrete as you are pouring
it, or you can wait until you receive the base stand (having previously poured the pad) and
drill the holes into the concrete using the stand as a template. You must use a type of lead
head or garonite (a parafast resin mortar) to secure the bolts.

**

Most local concrete companies stock this type of product.

***

If not available locally, DH Satellite can furnish the garonite.

Concrete Pad for 3.7-4.2m Antennas

Garonite™ is a specially formulated, finley ground
hydraulic cement. It expands while setting and will
not loosen, shrink or crack under stress, vibration,
heat or cold and will cure to strengths far
exceeding those of regular concrete.

Garonite™ does not contain metallic filings,
calcium chloride or other corrosive agents.
Garonite™ is supplied in ready-to-use form.
Simply add water for special application when a
high-strength, non-shrink, pourable consistency
grout material is required, such as grouting heavy
duty equipment when core drilling anchor bolts and
base plates.
