DO NOT lift the enclosure with the batteries in place.
• Do not transport, lift, or place the unit on any surface unable to fully support its weight.
• Do not allow personnel to walk beneath the suspended unit during the lifting operation. Use
steel-toe work shoe protection. Use “hard hats” at all times during this procedure. Verify
transportation path is free of obstructions prior to lifting.
3.0 Installation
3.1 Lifting
If arranging block and tackle to lift the enclosure, use the following standard rule:
Make the length of the cable between the eyebolts and the lifting hook at least twice the distance
between the lifting plates (2 X 32” = 64”). This will ensure that the lifting angle of the chain is greater
than 60 degrees.
After the enclosure is in place, the lifting plates may be removed or left in place. The lifting plate
fasteners are sealed to prevent water intrusion or seepage.
Prior to placing the enclosure, make certain there is adequate swing room for the door. Allow at least 40” for the
door’s swing arc (with a few extra inches). See Fig. 2.1 on p. 17 for a detailed schematic of the door’s swing
arc. In addition, the enclosure must be on a smooth surface. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the
mounting surface for the enclosure is smooth and free of bumps.
