2.5 MACHINE GROUTING
After concrete has cured completely and anchors have cured completely into
place:
2.5.1
Position washer over the mounting anchors.
2.5.2
Raise the washer 1/2” [12.7] off the mounting surface and place spacers
under the corners of the washer base.
2.5.3
Level the washer, leaving washer at least 1/2” [12.7] off the mounting
surface.
Do not permanently support the washer with spacers under the corners.
Machine must be grouted, and spacers must be removed.
2.5.4
Mix non-shrinking machinery grout according to the grout instructions.
The grout should not be too runny or too firm. Completely fill the 1/2”
[12.7] space between the washer base and the mounting surface. Force
grout under all base angles and plates until completely filled. Fill around
all anchor bolts.
2.5.5
Finger tighten all nuts to anchor bolts.
2.5.6
When the grout has started to stiffen (but before it is cured), remove the
spacers from the corners and allow the washer to settle into the wet
grout. Fill in any voids as necessary with additional grout.
2.5.7
Allow grout to completely cure, then tighten all nuts to securely fasten the
washer to the grouted mounting surface.
2.5.8
Retighten nuts after 5 days of operation and check quarterly.
If using a steel mounting base, first grout the steel mounting base to the
concrete floor using the above steps, then repeat the steps for mounting
and grouting the washer to the steel mounting base.
