SET THE UNIT
Screw one set of nuts and washers onto the anchor bolts – After the foundation
has set, screw one set of nuts followed by one set of washers onto the anchor bolts.
Set the nuts so the lowest washer is about 2½ inches above the concrete and at an
even height. To accomplish this, use a small level and check all three directions.
These nuts are not adjustable after the unit is in place. The bottom edge of the unit
will be ½-inch above the concrete when installed.
Set the unit on the anchor bolts – Align the faceplate in the desired direction, then
lift the unit over the anchor bolts. Note that the unit weighs approximately 225
pounds. Use appropriate lifting materials and methods to avoid possible injury
and/or damage.
Secure the unit – Access the mounting studs through the door on the side of the
unit and tighten the mounting nuts onto the anchor bolts. This may be more
convenient if a long socket, extension and universal joint is used to tighten the
hardware.
INSTALL COMBINATION BEACON/STROBE
Gasket – Place the strobe gasket on top of the enclosure.
Connect the cords – Plug the wires from the beacon-strobe into the mating plug at
the top of the enclosure.
Fasten the beacon/strobe – Using the supplied screws, fasten the beacon-strobe to
the top of the enclosure.
WIRING
Ground – The ground (green) wire should be stripped and fastened to the supplied
grounding lug.
24V AC supply – Using the proper crimping tool, attach a #8 fork to each of the
incoming power wires and fasten them to the terminal screws labeled “24V AC.”
120/240V AC supply – Using the proper crimping tool, attach a #8 fork to each of
the incoming power wires and fasten them to the correct terminals as labeled on
the transformer. After completing the wire connections, install the supplied terminal
covers.
IMPORTANT: The leveling of the bottom nuts is crucial to the leveling of the unit. A small
error will be magnified after installation.
IMPORTANT: A ½-inch air gap is required between the foundation and the unit. Moisture
problems may result if this condition is not complied with
