Attach the front mounting bracket to the pole as follows:
Note:
Clearfield recommends using two people to perform this task: One to hold the mounting bracket in
position against the pole, and one to install the mounting hardware.
Step 1:
To install the pole mounting fixture
a.
Determine how high above ground to elevate the cabinet. Mark a height at the center of the pole, two inches below where
the top surface of the base platform will sit.
Note:
The top of the base platform must be at least 18 inches
above the ground.
b.
Drill a 3/8-inch pilot hole into the pole at the marked height
location.
c.
Position the front mounting bracket against the pole, aligning
the top bracket hole with the drilled hole.
d.
Install (1) 1/2 x 5-inch lag screw and 1/2-inch flat washer to
attach the front bracket to the pole. Verify that the bracket is level,
and then tighten the screw.
e.
Drill (2) 3/8-inch pilot holes into the pole through the
remaining holes in the center of the front bracket.
f.
Verify that the bracket is level, and then install (2) 1/2 x 5-inch
lag screws and flat washers into the pilot holes to attach the
bracket to the pole. Tighten the screws to secure the bracket in
place.
g.
Install (4) 1/2 x 18.75-inch threaded rods through the front
bracket from behind. Loosely install a 1/2-inch flat washer, lock
washer, and nut onto each rod to secure it in place.
Note:
The upper right rod must not protrude more than 3/4-inch
past the tightened nut to prevent
interference with cable entry.
