STEP 1: 1.1 If pod levelers are used, they must be threaded in from the bottom side of the floor. Do this now! Pod type leveler: 1 inch/95019.01 1.5 inch/95019.02

NOTE: You will be provided with pod and cone point levelers in 2 lengths. These are used to level the floors. Most situations will require the use of only the short levelers, but very irregular floors may require using some of the long levelers. Pod levelers are generally used on hard floors and cone levelers on carpeted floors.

NOTE: The system used in this example is referred to as a 2-1, meaning that it includes 2 stationary sections of shelving positioned in back of one mobile carriage. The system size can vary but there will always be one more static section of shelving than mobiles. Floor sections arrive assembled as shown. If more than 2 sections of floor are required, each section will be numbered from left to right on the bottom side. Read through the entire installation instructions before beginning. NOTE: The hex rail goes in front.

2.3 Slide the bumper blocks into the channel in the floor sections. The rubber bumper goes toward the interior of the floor and the countersunk holes orient to the top side of the floor section.

2.2 Install a rubber bumper on one end ofeach aluminum block. Notice that the 2 holes drilled through the blocks are offset to one side. Once installed intothe floor section, these holes must be shifted to the outside or the screws will not pass through. Therefore, 2 are assembled as rights and 2 as lefts.

STEP 2: 2.1 Each floor system is provided with 4 end stop kits as shown. These will beplaced into the floor sections to end up in all 4 corners of the full floor. Put 2 on the left side of the left floor section and 2 on the right side of the right floor section. The end stop kits must be installed into the floor sections before they are laid in place and leveled. End stop kit: 37008.01

S1/S1L-Page -15

STEP 10: 10.1 The shelving must be anchored to the carriage. Drill 3/16 inch clearance holes through the bottom shelf supports. Drill one at each end of each support. Caution! Drill these holes 4 inches in from the end of the shelf supports. Failure to do this will cause the anchor screw to contact the carriage wheel.

10.2 Drill into the carriage top using the previously drilled holes for location. Drill a 9/64 inch hole in all 4 places. Fasten theshelving section using the self threading screws provided. Flat head screw: 96036.03 Caution! Local code may require that a heavier anchoring screw be used. Check local code.

Note: Vacuum up all drill chips. Chips left on the carriage or on the rail will cause rough carriage travel and will cause undo wear and tear on the carriage wheels.

STEP 11: 11.1 Earlier in the installation procedure the end stops were put into the floor sections but not tightened. Slide the end stops toward the center of the floors section to about the location of the steel channel piece welded between the rails.

11.3 Move the carriage out of the way and tighten the end stop blocks. The keps nuts below should allow tightening from above. If necessary, remove the front entry cover to gain access to the front keps nuts. Access to the rear keps nuts ispossible. Set the end stops on the remaining end of the floor using the same technique just described.

Note: The system depicted on the previous pages is referred to as a 2-1, which means it consists of 2 stationary shelving units positioned behind 1 mobile shelving unit. Adders are available which include more than one mobile shelving unit. In such cases bumpers need to be installed to prevent hard contact between carriages. The following steps address the installation of bumpers when required.

11.2 Roll the carriage over toward the end of the floor section. Make sure the carriage wheels do not come in contact with the floor end cover. As the carriage moves, the anti tip brackets will push the end stopblocks into the correct position.

SECTION III S1 MANUAL (M)

NOTE: The system used in this example is just one of many configurations available. Regardless of which configuration is being installed, the basic steps outlined here will apply. Read through the entire installation instructions before beginning. Notice the numbers written in magic marker. The floor must be assembled according to this marking system. Start with the number 1 at the left when facing the front of the system. Match numbers moving from left to right.

NOTE: You will be provided with pod and cone point levelers in 2 lengths. These are usedto level the floors. Most situations will require the use of the only short levelers, but very irregular floors may require using some of the long levelers. Pod levelers are generally used on hard floors and cone levelers on carpeted floors.

STEP 1: 1.1 If pod levelers are used, they must be threaded in from the bottom side of the floor. Do this now! Pod type leveler: 1 inch/95019.01 1.5 inch/95019.02 NOTE: The system used for these installation instructions does not require a floor mounted end stop. If your system does not include platforms on each end, see the S1ML section of this manual for end stop installation instructions! (Steps 2 and 11)
