     If you want to keep it at the current location and level it, it can be 
quite simple.  There should be some play in moving the unit and at least one 
direction.  Move it so ever gently in one direction.  On the side you moved 
it from, cut galvinized conduit pipe length to go below frost line.  Pound 
at least 2 or three into the ground along that side leaving the top at the 
level you want the bottom of the pad to be.
     Now shift the pad over those pipes with a little extra and pound pipe 
along the other side.  Once in place just put something under the middle to 
hold level.
     Check under the pad to see what the base is like on the underside. 
Some have partitions to add strength and other can have a foam concrete mix. 
Keep in mind what kind of give there is in the copper lines.
