HANDLING OF THE ACF60-00 UNIT
Although approved for installation on a combustible base, the unit must not be installed directly on the roof
surface. Use base supports for the installation (see Figure 7).
Both the unit and the supporting base weight should be sufficiently supported by the roof joists.
Provide for a gangway all around the unit for maintenance purposes.
Installation on roofs directly above sleeping quarters should be avoided if possible. If not possible, special
consideration must be given to the transmission characteristics of the building structure. The use of vibration
isolators under the equipment (acoustically insulated bases) and approved flexible connections (vibration-
damping pipe fittings) between the unit and the piping system is recommended.
LEVELING
The unit should be level both front to back and side to side. Place a level on the top of the unit to check for
level. If the unit is not level, metal shims are recommended for use under proper corners to obtain level. If
the shim(s) thickness exceeds 1/2", support shims should be inserted under the center of the unit.
