Confact Oliver Technologies at 1-800-2847437: <br />� a)Pier height exceeds 48" b) Length of home exceeds 76'c)Roof eaves exceed 16"d)Sidewall height exceed 96" <br /> e)Location is within 1500 feet of coast <br /> INSTALLATION OF GROUND PAN <br /> 2. Remove weeds and debris in an approximate two foot square to expose firm soil for each ground pan(C). <br /> 3. Ptace ground pan(C)directly below chassis I-beam . Press or drive pan firmly into soil until flush with or below soil. <br /> SPECIAL NOTE:The longitudinal"V"brace system serves as a pier under the home and should be loaded as any <br /> other pier. It is recommended that after leveling piers,and one-third inch(1/3")before home is lowered completely on <br /> to piers,complete steps 4 through 9 below then remove jacks. <br /> INSTALLATION OF LONGITUDINAL"V"BRACE SYSTEM <br /> NOTE: WHEN INSTALLING THE LONGITUD/NAL SYSTEM ONLY, A MINIMUM OF 2 SYSTEMS PER FLOOR SECTION IS REQUIRED.SOIL TEST <br /> PROBE SHOULD BE USED TO DETERMINE CORRECT TYPE OF ANCHOR PER SOIL CLASSIFICATION.IF PROBE TEST READINGS ARE BETWEEN <br /> 175 8 275 A 5 FOOT ANCHOR MUST BE USED.IF PROBE TEST READINGS ARE BETWEEN 276 8 350 A 4 FOOT ANCHOR MAY BE USED.USE <br /> GROUND ANCHORS WRH DIAGONAL TIES AND STABILlZER PLATES EVERY 5'4".VERTICAL TIES ARE ALSO REQUIRED OPI HOMES SUPPUED <br /> WITH VERTICAL TIE GONNECTION POINTS(PER FLORIDA RECx). <br /> 4.Select the correct square tube brace(E)length for set-up(pier)height at support location. (The 18"tube is always <br /> used as the bottom part of the longitudinal arm). Note: Either tube can be used by itself,cut and drilled to length as long as a <br /> 40 to 45 degree angle is maintained. <br /> PIER HEIGHT 1.25"ADJUSTABLE 1.50"ADJUSTABLE <br /> (Approx.45 degrees Max.)

Install (2)of the 1.50"square tubes(E {1 S"tube})into the"U"bracket(J), insert carriage bolt and leave nut loose for final <br /> adjustment. <br /> 6. Place I-beam connector(F)loosely on the bottom flange of the I-beam. <br /> 7. Slide the selected 1.25°tube(E)into a 1.50"tube(E)and attach to I-beam connectors(F)and fasten loosely with bolt and nut. <br /> 8. Repeat steps 6 through 7 to create the"V"pattem of the square tubes loosely in place.The angle is not to exceed 45 <br /> degree and not below 40 degrees. <br /> 9.After all bolts are tightened, secure 1.25"and 1.5p"tubes using four(4)1/4"-14 x 3/4"self-tapping screws in pre-drilled�holes. <br /> INSTALLATION OF IATERAL TELESCOPING TRANSVERSE ARM SYSTEM <br /> THE MODEL 1101 "V"(LONGITUDINAL&LATERAL PROTECTION)ELIMINATES THE PIEED FOR MOST STABILIZER PLATES 8�FRAME TIES. <br /> NOTE:THE USE OF THIS SYSTEM REQUIRES VERTICAL TIES SPACED AT 5'4". <br /> FOUR FOOT(4')GROUND ANCHOR MAY BE USED EXCEPT WHERE THE HOME MANUFACTURER SPECIFIES DIFFERENT. <br /> 10. Install remaining vertical ti�down straps and 4'ground anchors per home manufacturer's instructions. NOTE:Centerline <br /> anchors to be sized according to soil torque condition.Any manufacturer's specfications for sidewall anchor loads in excess of <br /> 4,000 Ibs. require a 5'anchor per Florida Code. <br /> 11. NOTE:Each system is required to have a frame tie and stabilizer attached at each lateral arm stabilizing location.This frame tie& <br /> stabilizer plate needs to be located within 18"ftom of center ground pan. <br /> 12. Select the cor�ect square tube brace(H)length for set-up lateral transverse at support location.The lengths come in either 60" <br /> or 72"lengths. (With the 1.50"tube as the bottom tube, and the 1.25"tube as the inserted tube.j <br /> 13. Install the 1.50 transverse brace(H)to the ground pan connector(D)with bolt and nut. <br />' 14. Slide 1.25"transverse brace into the 1.50"brace and attach to adjacent I-beam connector(I )with bolt and nut. <br /> 15.Secure 1.50"transverse arm to 1.25"transverse arm usinq four(4) 1/4"-14 x 3/4"self-tappinq screws in pr�drilled holes. <br /> ; ; OLIVER TECHNOLOGIES,INC.
