be enlarged for better comprehension.
Ensure the supporting structure for the display is plumb, horizontally level,
and square before installing the display panels.
1. Inspect the level of the vertical
sections by taking measurements
of the horizontal intervals between
vertical columns (X
three equally spaced horizontal
measurements. Refer to Figure 3.
If the difference between any two X
measurements exceeds 5 mm, adjust
the structure or plan ahead for panel
adjustments while installing the
display panels..
2. Ensure the structure is plumb by
placing a sufficiently long level attached to the top
panel of the frame. Refer to Figure 4.
If the δ value at the bottom of the structure exceeds
1 mm for each 1 m of the frame's height, adjust the
structure or plan ahead for panel adjustments while
installing display panels. For example, a 10 m high
structure would have a normally allowable δ
measurement of 10 mm.
3. Inspect if the structure is curved by placing a
horizontal reference in the vertical bar that has the

Panel Installation
1. Take the display panels out of the crate and check the
integrity of the panels. Check for any obvious damage
from transport.
2. Use the supplied lifting tool as an additional handle and
remove the panel from the crate. Refer to Figure 6.
3. Use a C-clamp to attach an angled metal section with
a total length of two panels or more to the bottom of
the metal structure to support the first row. Ensure the
metal support piece is horizontally level and vertically
plumb. Refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8.

4. Attach eye bolts to the rivet nuts at the top of each panel to lift the
panel into place. Refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10. Lift only one panel at
a time. Make sure to keep a minimum 45° angle on each side.

5. Bring the panel into position. Install the bottom-center panel (Section
202 in Figure 11) first unless otherwise specified.
