Step 2: Mount Cabinets
There are two methods of mounting cabinets: wall or floor mounting. Wall mounting the
most common and economical method is described below. The floor mounting description
begins on
Note
Toshiba recommends installing cabinets (see
) from the top down,
Base Cabinet on top, first Expansion Cabinet below it, second cabinet below that,
etc. This applies to 5 Cabinet Systems only.
Wall Mounting the Base (Top) Cabinet
Follow these instructions to wall mount the Base Cabinet or the first Remote Expansion
Cabinet. A wooden backboard between the cabinet and the wall is necessary (see
).
1.
Obtain a board, such as plywood, that is at least 3/4 of an inch thick. The board should
be at least 6-1/2 feet high (completely expanded systems with seven cabinets require
this much height) and 26 inches wide (minimum).
Secure the board to the wall with wood screws with the bottom edge of the board is six
inches above the floor. (If there are wall studs, make sure the screws align with the
studs.)
2.
Remove the front, back, and side covers from the Base Cabinet or first Remote
Expansion Cabinet (see
Note
The two screws on the front cover and the two screws on each side cover should be
loosened just enough to slide the covers off. The front cover slides left and the side
covers swing out and down for removal.
3.
Hold the Base Cabinet back cover against the wall or backboard so that its two top
mounting holes are approximately 6-1/2 feet (78 inches) above the floor. This allows up
to five cabinets to be installed (top-down) with a six-inch clearance between the floor
and bottom cabinet (see
4.
Use a level to make sure that the back cover is held level.
5.
Trace the upper arch of the top mounting holes with a pencil.
6.
Remove the back cover from the wall. Draw a line between the top two marking hole
marks.
7.
Drill holes on the line in the middle of the arch tracing.
8.
Screw #12 X 1.25 inch size wood screws into the two drilled holes, leaving about 1/8 of
an inch clearance between the screw heads and the wall.
9.
Hang the Base Cabinet or first Remote Expansion Cabinet back cover from the top two
screws and secure the screws into the wall.
10. Drill holes at the bottom two mounting holes of the back cover, and secure #12 X 1.25
inch wood screws into the two holes.
11. If installing a Base Cabinet or first Remote Expansion Cabinet back cover to the wall:
Position the cabinet on the back cover cabinet hangers, slide the cabinet right to the
proper mounting position, and secure the cabinet to the back cover with two screws on
the right side of the cabinet. If installing Expansion Cabinets, skip to
.
12. Install earth wiring, AC and reserve power cabling, and PCB cabling per the
“Recommended Installation Sequence” on Page 2-5
