Section 1 - Packaging Remove the cardboard and shrink wrap from the pallet (if used) and safely lift each item on the pallet. Items on the pallet may be secured using metal or plastic strapping. Use caution, as the strapping may be under tension and can cause injury when cut. If packed in a crate, remove lid and at least one long side and one short side.

Leveling the Stands Once the concrete has cured and all the bolts are straight, the mounting points will need to be leveled. Shims may be used, but the proper method of using leveling nuts is highly recommended as described below. Run a set of leveling nuts on the bolts as low as allowable (one nut per bolt).
Lifting the Stands Note: LMI recommends the detector assemblies be placed and secured into the stands prior to lifting the stand into place. If stands were purchased with your system, the detector assemblies will come pre-assembled with the stands. This can be done by placing the stand on ground level and using lifting straps to lower the detector assembly into the stand and securing using the provided hardware.
Squaring the Stands After the lower stands have been lifted and secured into place, it is crucial that they are square with each other. Failure to do so will result in sensor alignment issues that cannot be resolved with the included sensor mounting brackets. The opposing front outside corners of the stands should be within 1.27 cm (1/2 of an inch) of each other on the diagonal reading.
Mounting the Control Box The four provided 3/8 x 16-inch stainless steel bolts with a length of 1.9 cm (0.75 in.) should be used to mount the control box to the back of the stand containing detector 1. Using bolts longer than the specified may cause damage to the detector assemblies’ enclosure. Stands purchased with your system will have tapped holes to facilitate the installation of the control box.
The bottom of each detector enclosure and the control box is pre-drilled for conduit connections required for a standard installation. Refer to the following drawings for conduit requirements at the concrete pad. Model 4525-7000: 517 x 692C Model 4525-10500: 517 x 693C...
