For metal piers, place the piers in the center of the Vector pads. Set the single 4x4 or two 2x4’s through the piers, and bumps against the

used on level ground sets.

Conventional pier adjusters must be placed under beam with upturned edge directed towards the outside of the home.

Pier spacing must be consistent with home manufacturers’ installation instructions and/or state requirements.

Tip: Pre-cut your lumber and mark as to brand or model of homes you will be installing. If frame widths are the same, the pre-

cut boards will also be the same length in each Vector set-up.

V-Drive System

for rocky soil conditions

V-Drive anchors are used only in Zone I, single section homes in areas where rocky soil conditions do not allow helix style anchors to be

installed.

Vector Systems are set following the general set up instructions provided. With the V-Drive anchor, the short 2x4 boards used with the

outside tension brackets are discarded. In place of the short 2x4’s, a longer 2x4 is used as per the diagram above. This 2x4 board should
