Does the EZ Base include any kind of standoff to keep the end of the post above any water on the ground?

Yes, much like the 2 side flanges (with the bolt/screw holes) that flare out, there are 2 flanges that flare inwards towards the inside hollow part of the base. These are the same thickness as the rest of the material on the base (about 1/8" to 3/16") and they keep the post from direct contact with the surface that the base is mounted on.Note that the base is tapered very slightly for a snug fit for the post and has screw holes on the vertical sides for screws to secure the post to the base itself. If you're really concerned about any post contact with the surface, you may want to consider not having the post slide all the way down to the bottom (but I would not recommend this).

No but you can simply put a spacer in the bottom or not slide the post all the way into the bracket, of course you will have to use adequate fasteners to support any load (not the best of approaches).

No. However, the rectangular base is quite heavy, making very stable, even when extended out as far as it will go.

Yes, there are metal sections that anchor the unit to the ground. They seem effective, but installation is tricky if ground is not level.

yes Greg,you can fill it with water or sand.It does tip over if you hang on it...the base does say on it 'do not hang'

No Anchor, the instructions call for a 4x4x8 pressure treated post cemented in the ground. this piece slides over the post and secures to it. I'm sure you could work something over an existing post too.

No, this was just the sidewall when we purchased it, we also bought the E-Z Up Sierra II Canopy which has the four posts and the top.

This post does not have an extension. It is designed to mount over a 4"x4" treated post that is sunk at least 30" inches into the ground and preferrably in concrete. I use an inverted 20 gallon trash can with the bottom cut out as a mold for my concrete base.

Nope. Once you put the shell at the bottom, it will raise the height making the ports unaccessible for the landing zone dock.

Yes it does. It keeps the unit about six inches off the ground. I have mine sitting on some bricks and it works great.

If it's closed off, like in the form of a square, all ends are attached, no. If you have it open and using it just as a freestanding barrier, yes.

You can raise the post on the side with lever to insert on the right side to hold it in place, then I press it in to snap. We keep ours outside, and if you raise the post higher it might need to be weighed down on the base with sand inside the base, or just put a heavy brick on the base, to keep it from tipping over, good luck.

no it does NOT and i think this is a design flaw. I would rather it would stay up so that water could evaporate when not in use.

Yes. The sight post has a spring loaded pin to keep it in place. The pin can be depressed to allow for sight pin removal.

No, but you can put a riser on the gas block. Yankee Hill makes a riser for that specific purpose.

The plexiglass is positioned so that it is "arched" therefore there is no issue with water remaining on top. However there were several issues I had with the one I bought and how the pieces fit together including the plexiglass staying affixed between the front and back tracks. It would blow out with winds and land on the ground. I would contact the company and make sure this will not be an issue.

no there is no base, it is supported by the plumbing. Mine is around an inch off the ground and I have installed a cut off on either side to kill the flow when i refill it. if it is a short distance it will not effect the unit however one could place it on the ground or on a brick or stone for support.

It's a standing base. The way it's designed wouldn't allow a hanging position.
