• <br /> For tie down strap and anchor spacing. See the Mobile Home <br /> Manufacturers Installation Manual. Each state, county or municipality <br /> may require a specific anchor from the groups shown for each soil <br /> classification. Check local regulations before installation. <br /> Note: <br /> • Soil test probe the anchor location in order to match the proper anchor with the soil classification. <br /> • Stabilizer plates or certified stabilizing device must be used with anchors when anchors are used to resist <br /> horizontal forces. <br /> • The distance from the end of the home to the first anchor must not exceed 2'-0". <br /> • All homes located in Wind Zones II and III must have a vertical tie installed at each diagonal tie location. <br /> SOIL CLASSIFICATION CHART <br /> Soil Soil Blow Count Test Probe Recommended <br /> Class Description (ASTM D1586) Value Minute Man Anchor <br /> 1 Sound hard rock NA NA Cross Drive or Rock Anchor <br /> 2 Very dense &/or 40-up 551 lb. in. 4430DH <br /> cemented sands, Up 650DH <br /> coarse gravel 4430 EZDH <br /> 4636 EZDH <br /> and cobbles, 636 EZDH <br /> caliche, GW-2 <br /> preloaded silts, 12" Stabilizer Plate <br /> and clays.

Check local regulations first. Soils less than 4B, see home manufacturer's instructions. <br /> Note: Many anchors are designed for particular soil condition(s) and are unacceptable for use in other type soils. <br /> We have listed the soils for which each anchor is designed and approved. Soil classifications are taken from the <br /> "standard for the installation on mobile homes". Part 3280 each anchor model listed has been tested by an <br /> independent professional engineer to meet ANSI A225.1 and ASTM D3953.91 codes. <br /> Revised 3/14/07 <br /> 11 . <br />
