Enclosure Installation
Leveling
WARNING: Level the enclosure before attempting to install equipment. The casters are not designed to provide long-term support for the
enclosure. Use the levelers to provide long-term support. Install the enclosure in a structurally sound area with a level floor that is able to bear
the weight of the enclosure, all equipment that will be installed in the enclosure and any other enclosures and/or equipment that will be installed
nearby.

After the enclosure has been moved to the installation location, use a carpenter's level to check the
slope of the floor. If the floor slopes more than 1%, choose an alternate installation site.
2
Use an 18 mm open-end wrench to lower each leveler
levelers, 2 at the front and 2 at the rear.) Make sure each leveler contacts the floor solidly. Note:
Lower a leveler by turning it clockwise; raise a leveler by turning it counter-clockwise.

After lowering each leveler, use the carpenter's level to confirm that the enclosure is level in all
directions. Adjust the levelers as required until the enclosure is level.

(Optional) If you wish to provide an additional measure of stability, you can attach the 2 shipping
brackets, using the hardware that attached the enclosure to the shipping pallet. Use a 13 mm open-
end wrench to connect the brackets to the outer
enclosure. Attach the brackets to secure mounting points in the floor using user-supplied hardware or
Tripp Lite's SmartRack Bolt-Down Kit (Part # SR331).
Ground Connection
All the parts of the enclosure are grounded to the frame of the enclosure. Use the enclosure's front or
rear threaded grounding point
A
directly to your facility's earth ground connection with an 8 AWG (3.264 mm) wire. Route the ground wire
under the enclosure's frame to ensure unhindered door operation. WARNING: Attach each enclosure to
earth ground separately. Do not use the enclosure without an earth ground connection.
