Pre-Installation
1
If this is an existing installation, unlock the 24 mm leg lock nuts and raise the leveling legs of the control
module or control module/expansion module unit until the complete system is resting back on its
casters.
Important: Do not separate any existing control module/expansion module assemblies.
2
Position the control module or control module/expansion module in its intended location.
3
Determine the quantity and position of expansion module's to be added.
4
Make sure the floor area is the appropriate size to allow for installation. Verify that the module is
positioned correctly to accommodate the multi-module installation; there should be 32 inches of service
space available in the front and back.
5
Ensure that the leveling legs of all frames will not be resting on tiles that will need to be raised after the
system has been installed.
