Enclosure Installation

Unpacking (continued)

Use a 13 mm open-end wrench to remove the shipping brackets. Be extremely careful, as the

enclosure could shift unexpectedly after bracket removal. Save the brackets and bracket hardware for

later use.

Position at least one person at the front of the enclosure and one person at the rear of the

enclosure. Slowly push the enclosure toward the back of the shipping pallet until all four casters go

over the edge of the pallet and touch the floor. WARNING: Use at least one assistant when

removing the enclosure from the pallet. Be extremely careful when moving the enclosure.

Placement

WARNING: Install the enclosure in a structurally sound area with a level floor that is able to

bear the weight of the enclosure, all equipment installed in the enclosure, and any other

enclosures and/or equipment installed nearby.

Use the casters to move the enclosure for a short distance over a level, smooth, stable surface by

pushing it from the front or rear (not the side panels). Do not attempt to roll the enclosure over long

distances. The enclosure should be moved close to its installation location inside its shipping

container before it is unpacked. (Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the shipping container.)

WARNING: Do not push or pull the enclosure at the side panels or pull the enclosure toward

you.

After the enclosure has been moved to the installation location, use a carpenter's level to check the

slope of the floor. If the floor slopes more than 1%, choose an alternate installation site.

(Optional) To provide an additional measure of stability, you can attach a shipping bracket to the front

end of the unit using the hardware that secured the enclosure to the shipping pallet. Use a 13 mm

open-end wrench to connect the bracket to the bracket mounting points on the front of the enclosure.

Then attach the bracket to secure mounting points in the floor using user-supplied hardware or

Tripp Lite's SmartRack Bolt-Down Kit (model: SRBOLTDOWN).

Note: Do not mount the bracket to the rear end of the unit. Doing so will obstruct the brush strip plate and prohibit

the ability to run cables through the bottom panel.
