Foundation
- The foundation can be a large tube that is flanged at both ends; one flange is fastened to the ground while the other is fastened to the axis 1 slewing bearing.
- Alternatively, the foundation can be a plate that is fastened at its corners to the ground. On top of this ground-mounted plate, 4 upright pillars are welded or fastened; then, another plate is fastened upon these pillars then fastened again to the axis 1 slewing bearing.
- Alternatively, the foundation can be two long square tubes that are fastened to the ground parallel and at a sizeable distance from each other. Then two more square tubes, parallel to each other but perpendicular to the first two tubes, are fastened on top of the first two tubes. Upright square bars are fastened to the intersections of the first and second tubes, making that 4 bars in total, being 1 to each intersection. A plate is fastened on top of these bars then fastened again to the axis 1 slewing bearing.
