    • Clear large rocks from the streambed to make it easier to install the strut channel.

    • Place cleared rocks downstream so they do not damage the node during a storm.

    • Set 5 ft steel strut channel into place.

    • Ensure the open side of the strut channel faces south so that the solar panel receives maximum sunlight! Addtionally, be careful not to deform the steel strut channel too much. A bit of deformation is okay.

    • Use the post pounder to drive the strut channel 3 ft into the stream bed.

    • This is what the attached strut channel connector looks like from above.

    • Place two additional spring strut channel nuts into the aluminum strut channel to be attached.

    • Insert the last two washers and screws into the nuts.

    • Use an impact driver to secure the screws into place. The impact driver should have a 3/4 '' Socket connected via a socket adapter.

    • Socket Adapter

    • This is what the extended strut channel looks like.

    • Line up a 1 ft strut channel with a u-bracket to the vertical strut channel.

    • Put two spring strut channel nuts into the vertical strut channel. Insert two washers and screws into the u-bracket to hold the strut channel arm.

    • Use the impact driver to tighten the screws.

    • This is a what the final node holding structure looks like.

    • Place two screws into the node enclosure with the 5/16'' washer and strut channel nuts on the backside.

    • You can remove the strut channel nut spring to make installation easier.

    • Slide the node into the strut channel arm.

    • The washer should be on the outside of the strut channel and the strut channel nut should be on the inside.

    • Tighten the screws with a 3/8 inch wrench.
