LOOR PREP
1.
Ask the general contractor if your current copy of the build-
ing dimensions are the most recently issued. Also, ask for
the points of reference from which you should take dimen-
sions to locate the cases.
2.
Using chalk lines or a laser transit, mar
k the fl oor where
the cases are to be located for the entire lineup. The lines
should coincide with the outside edges of the case feet.
3.
Move case as close as possible to its permanent location.
Remove all crating and shipping braces above the ship-
ping pallet. Loosen the plastic dust cover from the pallet,
but leave cover over the case to protect it while removing
the case from the pallet.
4.
Shipping braces with a sled runner construction can either
have metal brackets that can be removed with a screw
gun, or wood blocks that can be removed with a J-bar.
Note: Shipping braces are normally located at each
corner of the case. (Shipping braces used vary and are
based on case design for best transport.)
5.
Carefully, if horizontal supports, lift case up and off the
pallet. Remove dust cover. Installation hardware ships in
a marked packet located inside the case. Remove dust
cover. Installation hardware ships in a marked packet
located inside the case.
6.
To level, locate the highest point on the positioning lines
as a reference for determining the proper height of the
shim-pack levelers. A laser transit is recommended for
precision and requires just one person. Level adjustable
feet by twisting, if applicable, or shim as necessary under
horizontal supports as this will help ensure that the case
is not settling over time.
7.
Locate horizontal support positions along the chalk line
(Fig. 1). Spot properly leveled shim packs at each support
location.
8.
If necessary, drill a hole in each end of every horizontal
support (Fig. 2) and fasten to the fl oor with concrete
anchors.
Note: The holes do not need to be in the exact
locations specifi ed here. Be sure that the anchors are

Locate the horizontal supports under unit before
removing from pallet. Failure to do so will dam-
age the fi nished metal if correct lift points are
not identifi ed prior to removal.

LINE-UP & INSTALLATION
Single Case
1.
Move the case into position. Using a “J” bar, raise the end
of the case (under cross support), and lower the horizontal
support on to the shim packs. Repeat on the other end of
the case.
C A U T I O N
These cases are not designed for excessive
external weight. Do not walk on top or inside
of cases. Doing so may result in case damage
and/or personal injury.
▲
W A R N I N G
Be certain that your hands and feet are out of
the way before lowering the case. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury.
