Installation

Anchoring Frame

1. Remove bolts holding the frame (602) to the ship-
ping pallet.
The overall system weighs about 2400-3400 lb.
(1089-1542 kg). To avoid injury and equipment
damage, follow instructions below. Never have one
person move or lift the frame.
2. To lift the system, use the top joists on the frame
with a forklift. Have an adequate number of person-
nel to lift or move the unit; avoid jarring or tilting it.
3. Remove the pallet and all remaining shipping sup-
ports from underneath the frame.
The four base footings of the frame and the bottom of
the bin must be level on the same surface in order for
the SaniForce BES to operate properly. If necessary,
level the SaniForce BES using sanitary metal shims.
Make sure the frame does not wobble.
Anchor the four foot pads to the floor. To prevent the
frame from being pushed off the floor, the anchor bolts
must be long enough to withstand the 5027 lb. (22.36
kN) of downward force that the air cylinder can exert.
Use the holes in the four base footings as a guide and
drill holes for 1/2 in. (13 mm) bolts. Bolt the frame to the
floor with anchors.

Installing Air Cylinder

The air cylinder weighs about 130 lb. (59 kg). To
avoid injury and equipment damage, follow
instructions below. Never have one person move or
lift the frame.
NOTE: All models do not use the same parts. Refer to
parts lists for your model, pages 35-45.
