5. Cabinet Installation
CAUTION! READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS BEFORE INSTALLATION!
WARNING: The Distribution Center is extremely heavy. Do not attempt to unpack, move or install the
Distribution Center without assistance. Until it has been properly installed and stabilized, the Distribution
Center is prone to tipping and could cause property damage and/or personal injury. Use extreme caution
when handling the Distribution Center and be sure to follow all handling and installation instructions.
Do not attempt to install wiring without first stabilizing the Distribution Center.
5.1 Preparation
The Distribution Center must be installed in a structurally sound area with a level floor that is able to bear the weight of the
Distribution Center, all the wiring that will be installed in the Distribution Center and any enclosures and/or equipment that will
be installed nearby. Before unpacking the Distribution Center, you should transport the shipping container closer to the final
installation location to minimize the distance you will need to move the Distribution Center after the protective packaging has
been removed. If you plan to store the Distribution Center for an extended period before installation, follow the instructions in
the Storage & Service section.
You will need several tools (user-supplied):
• 13 mm Open-end Wrench
• 18 mm Open-end Wrench
5.2 Unpacking
1
Confirm that the shipping container is upright and stable, then use a utility
blade to cut the shrink-wrap securing the corner protectors. Apply the utility
blade directly over the corner protectors to prevent the utility blade from
scratching the Distribution Center or cutting the heavy protective plastic
bag beneath the shrink-wrap. WARNING: Do not scratch the Distribution
Center or cut the heavy plastic bag beneath the shrink-wrap. Do not
push or pull the Distribution Center while unpacking.
2
Remove the corner protectors. Save all packing materials (including the
pallet) for later use unless you are certain they will not be required. The
packing materials are recyclable.
3
Remove the heavy plastic bag surrounding the Distribution Center. Examine
the Distribution Center for any damage or loose parts. Confirm that all
parts are present. If anything is missing or damaged, contact Tripp Lite for
assistance. Do not attempt to use the Distribution Center if it has been
damaged.
