mounting base/cap intended to fit

Remove the top outer donut to prevent damage while driving the
pipe into the ground. To remove, expand the two tabs at the bottom
of the donut and pull upwards.
Position the pipe anchor at the desired location and using a sledge
hammer, drive the anchor post into the ground 24 in.
Try to drive the pipe as level as possible. Using a spirit level, check
level every 6 in. After about 18 in deep the trajectory of the pipe is
typically established and you cannot manually pull the pipe back
into level.
Reinstall the top outer donut. If the pipe is off-level, remove and adjust
the position of the top and/or bottom donut to compensate for the
crooked pipe.
