Step 9 – Attach Impact Head
Place Impact Head on upstream end of rail 1 and attach using 8 standard splice bolts with nuts on
traffic face (Figure 17).
Hint
: Place bottom two bolts first then use guardrail pin bar to lever head
up snug onto rail.
Bolt head and rail 1 to post 1 using the supplied M16 x 50mm (5/8 in x 2 in) guardrail post bolt.
Use a 50mm x 50mm (2 in x 2 in) washer under the nut on the inside of post 1 (Figure 18).
Step 10 – Place the Cables
Push the cables under the steel strap on the Ground Strut (Figure 19) and forward through the
holes at the top of the anchor. Lay the cables out parallel to the guardrail, downstream from the
anchor.
Ensure that bottom cable (closest to road) has half the thread protruding through the anchor, as
shown. Ensure the top cable has the nut wound on a least two turns past the end of the thread
(Figure 20).
