Install the EIO-04 Under-Seat Slope Bracket with the Access Point Against a Stadium Riser Slope Using EIO-GASKET

Learn how to install the EIO-04 under-seat enclosure with the AP560i access point on a flat surface, with EIO-GASKET sealing the space between the slope bracket and the stadium riser.

About this task

The EIO-GASKET keeps the debris from getting between the ramp base and a wall or a stadium riser. The EIO-GASKET supports the EIO-04 ramp bases.

The EIO-GASKET is made of compressible silicone rubber.

The best practice is to use the EIO-GAKET when the ramp base cannot be pressure washed from behind or when debris can be pushed behind the ramp base by a pressure washer. For information on pressure washing guidelines, see Power or Pressure Washing Guidelines.
Note

Note

When you mount the AP on a riser with the metal "L" bracket only and not with a large metal sloping bracket, it is recommended that you add a 3mm-thick stainless steel washer between the “L” brackets and the riser on all of the anchors. The washer provides proper drainage during storms.

Procedure

  1. Attach a metal “L” bracket on each side of the AP560i access point using two M6 screws for each bracket.
  2. Torque the M6 screws to 35 in-lbs.
  3. Use the metal “L” brackets as a template, mark four hole centers, and drill in the concrete.
  4. Insert four concrete anchors into the holes.
  5. Add a 3mm stainless steel washer to each anchor.
    The 3mm washers create a dranage channel for storm water and debris.
  6. Insert the 2 concrete anchors without the washers or nuts.
  7. Using a single security torx screw for each gasket attach a gasket to each side of the metal slope.
