Concrete Foundation Installation

A concrete foundation pad may be constructed to

elevate the machines. The concrete foundation pad

must be poured, reinforced with rebar and tied to the

existing floor with reinforcing bars. Refer to Figure 7,

Figure 8 or Figure 9 for a typical concrete foundation

pad installation.

1. Verify that the floor meets the requirements given

in the Machine Foundation section.

2. Excavate the floor to a depth of approximately

9 inches (230 mm) below the floor surface,

making certain that the sides of the hole slope

outwards from top to bottom. The bottom of the

hole should be 6 inches (152 mm) larger all

around than the top.

3. Wet the hole well and brush the bottom and sides

with cement grout.

To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance

must be bolted to an uncovered concrete

floor.
