12.2.1.2
Installing Racks
In a typical installation, the rack is bolted to a concrete floor to provide stability.
Prerequisites:
The following procedure describes the steps necessary to bolt the rack to a concrete floor. Be sure to
check with local authorities to verify that the following procedure conforms to local building codes and
regulations before permanently installing the rack.
Procedure:
1 Carefully align the rack at the desired anchoring location.
2 Use the rack mounting foot as a template and mark the location of the six 19 mm (0.75 in.)
diameter mounting holes. All six anchoring positions must be used.
3 Move the rack aside, drill holes in the concrete floor, and install the mounting anchors
(RAM RD-56 anchors recommended) per instructions provided with the anchors. Make sure that
none of the anchors comes in contact with the reinforcing wire mesh buried in the concrete; the
rack must be electrically isolated from any other equipment or materials at the site.
4 Align the rack with the installed anchors and lightly secure the rack to the floor using the proper
mounting hardware. Do not tighten the mounting hardware at this time.
5 Check the vertical plumb of the rack. Also check that the top is level. Use shims (flat washers or
flat aluminum plates) as necessary under the rack mounting foot to achieve vertical plumb and
horizontal level.
