  • Page 2 Remove the two packing screws next to the latches to enable the inner tray to be removed; then lift the four latches on the inner plate. Lift the plate out of the box. Note: The FZB may have either the EDGE™ or the EDGE8™ module trays installed. 3.3. To Remove the Door...

  • Page 3: Mounting The Cabinet

    MOUNTING THE CABINET 4.1. To a Wall Step 1: Install (4) supplied wall-mounting brackets to cabinet using provided screws (Figure 1). Step 2: Determine the mounting location. Select a flat vertical surface for mounting to prevent warping. IMPORTANT: Make sure there is adequate space for the door to open without interference. Step 3: Use a pencil to mark the wall through the holes in the mounting brackets.

    Step 4: Reinstall all floor tiles with the panel-lifter tool. Ensure tiles are even with adjacent tiles. If the floor tile over the FZB will not lay flat and even, it may be necessary to install the box below the stringers as described in Section 4.2.3. Figure 6 4.2.2 Alternative Method 1 If unable to successfully install the unit under a raised floor following the instructions in Section 4.2.1:...
  • Page 5 Step 2: Position the trim plate into the gap between the stringer and the FZB. Reinstall the trim plate to the side of the unit with the provided screws (Figure 7 inset). (It may require two people to perform this operation.) Step 3: Reinstall all floor tiles with the panel-lifter tool.
  • Page 6 Step 3: Determine mounting location of FZB in the ceiling and remove two ceiling panels or tiles (Figure 9). Figure 9 Step 4: Measure distance to building “red-iron” or other structural or supporting elements. Use this measurement, plus any slack length required for tieing the wire or installing nuts on threaded rod, to determine the length of each of the four support wires or rods.
  • Page 7 Step 8: Pass the supporting tie wires or threaded rods through the mounting brackets (Figure 11). If using wire, simply pass the wire through the hole in the mounting bracket, loop back up, and make several wraps around the wire. Step 9: Adjust the tension by bending the wire with a pair of pliers.

    INSTALLING MODULES NOTE: The FZB may have either the EDGE™ or the EDGE8™ module trays installed. For illustrative purposes, EDGE modules are shown in the remainder of the instruction. Step 1: The module frame can be tilted to provide better access for module or panel installation, if desired.
  • Page 9 Step 4: If the inner plate was removed from the box to a work surface, return the plate to the box and secure it with the latches seen in Figure 2 before installing the feeder trunk cables. Step 5: Before installing trunk cables, lift cable access panels as shown in Figure 15. Figure 15 Step 6: Install the trunk cables in the cradles per bullets 1 and 2 of Figure 16.
