FLOOR
8 - FOUNDATION BOX LAYING
1 - Make a hole in the ground underneath the pillar 8a and create a base of pebble gravel to avoid backwater
Á 8a .
[
]
2 - The existing bottom hinge is no more useful and must be removed À 8a .
3 - By means of spacers put the foundation box inside the hole, using the spirit level to ensure the correct
installation and paying attention that the pin on the box is aligned with the top hinge of the gate 8b .
4 - Make sure you have properly prepared the cable duct Á 8b and the Ø60 mm drain pipe À 8b .
5 - Remove the box from the excavation and run the first concrete layer to create the basement.
6 - Make sure you have blocked all the holes on the foundation box or the concrete will enter within the box
itself.
7 - Put the box on the site, make sure the box is still wide and level.
8 - Run the second concrete layer to fill in the spaces between the box and the digging.
9 - Wait for the concrete to set.
9 - LEAF INSTALLATION
The FLOOR operator must not be present within the foundation box until the leaf installation is completed,
especially until all welds have been done.
The installation of the gate can be done in 2 different ways:
MODE 1
• Remove the self-supporting pin  9a from the foundation box, lubricate with grease and insert again.
• Phase the notch À 9a of the self-supporting pin  9a with the notch Á 9a on the foundation box.
[
• Place the gate directly on the self-supporting pin  9a .
• Place the gate in closed position making sure that the notches on pin À 9a and box Á 9a are still
aligned.
• Make sure the leaf is level and that the top hinge is aligned with the pin.
• Weld the leaf on the pin, avoiding to use the box as ground for welding, because the welding current would
pass through the bushing causing damage to the bushing itself 9b .
MODE 2
• Take a U profile (not included) of right size 9c .
• Remove the self-supporting pin  9a from the foundation box.
• On the U profile find the correct position for the fixation of the pin 9d .
