Abstract
An apparatus for adjusting the height of a fuel dispenser includes a support or base assembly coupled to the fuel dispenser at its underside. The apparatus is mounted to a service station island or refueling position roadway. One form of the apparatus includes at least one base member. Several base members can be connected together in a stacking formation to form a composite bed for the fuel dispenser having a desired vertical rise. Fasteners are used to interconnect the base members and to make a connection to the fuel dispenser. Another form of the apparatus includes upper and lower members disposed in adjustable vertically slidable relationship to one another. The fuel dispenser rests on the upper member. The height of the fuel dispenser can be adjusted by moving the upper member relative to the lower member.
