HOW TO INSTALL MOBILE HOME EARTH ANCHORS BY HAND
THE EARTH ANCHOR HAND TOOL SEEN IN THIS VIDEO CAN BE FOUND ON EBAY. LOOK FOR EARTH ANCHOR INSTALLATION HAND TOOL.
This video shows how to manually install mobile home earth anchors by hand using the inline installation method, where the tops of the anchors are slanted at a 45 degree angle toward the I-beam under the trailer. The inline method gives the anchors more holding power than the vertical installation method, and doesn't require using stabilizer plates. .
Installing anchors by hand makes more sense if you are only occasionally installing anchors, because it saves the cost of buying or renting an $800 machine, or hiring a contractor.. Even if you have a machine, there isn't enough room under the trailer for a machine to install anchors slanted toward the I - Beam. That's why anchors are usually installed vertically outside the trailer, so they can use a machine.
This video was made while the ground was still frozen, so we we dug a starter hole 18" deep. The starter hole helps the anchor start drilling into the ground, and also makes sure it goes in at a 45 degree angle. In warmer weather, when the ground is soft, a starter hole is not needed,. To make the ground even softer, you can pour water over the ground.
I would say that anyone in reasonably good physical condition should be able to drill an earth anchor into the ground by hand in about 15 minutes. Installing earth anchors by hand saves you the cost of buying a machine, or hiring a contractor, and it also gives you a good workout that can save you money in gym fees..
The dimensions of the earth anchor installation hand tool are -
3 -1/2" long x 1 - 1/2" wide. The hex nut is 1 - 1/8".
This earth anchor installation hand tool can be found on Ebay.com.
