TPM Addendum - Installing Support Bars
Table Of Contents
The Support Bar(s) shipped with your system may look different from the one
shown in the TPM Assembly Instructions that came with your product. The
Support Bar(s) have been redesigned as shown here. Follow these steps for the
proper installation of the new Support Bar. Refer to the original assembly
instructions for information on setting tilt angles.
There are two configurations of Support Bars, a single and a double. Whether it’s
a single or a double depends on the structural requirements of your system. If
your shipment includes two Support Bars, both must be installed for structural
integrity and safety.
To avoid interference between the Support Bar(s) and other components, e.g.,
the Strongback or the Mounting Sleeve, the Support Bar(s) must be installed in
the orientation shown here.
