Installing the Cabinet on a Concrete Pad
The cabinet is equipped with four lifting eyebolts. Attach slings to the eyebolts to lift and
move the cabinet with a boom crane or derrick. Position the boom crane or derrick truck
near the installation site to perform this task.
The boom crane or derrick and the lifting slings must be capable of lifting at least a 3000 lb.
working load. Use wire rope slings long enough to provide a minimum six foot vertical
distance between the eyebolts and the sling junction to the boom line. Use appropriately
rated connecting links or lifting hooks.
Calix recommends using at least three people to install the cabinet: one to operate the crane
or derrick, one to guide the cabinet laterally as it lowers, and one to spot-check alignment of
the mounting anchors/holes and the conduits/entry boxes as the cabinet lowers.
DANGER!
The cabinet is very heavy. If it falls during lifting, it could cause
serious injury or death to personnel. Do not stand under the load or place
any part of your body under the load during lifting. Follow local safety
practices for lifting and moving heavy loads.
CAUTION!
Installing the cabinet requires safe handling to ensure that no
injury to personnel or damage to the cabinet occurs.
Before installing the cabinet, verify that the splice compartment door is open to a locked
position and that the battery compartment doors have been removed.
To install the cabinet on a concrete pad
1.
Sweep the pad free of dirt and debris.
2.
Install the isolation mat onto the concrete pad.
3.
Check the four lifting eyebolts on the top of the cabinet to ensure that they are securely
seated.
4.
Attach the lifting slings to the boom line. Attach the other ends of the slings to the
cabinet lifting eyebolts using connecting links or hooks.
5.
Lift the cabinet approximately 12 inches above the ground and position it directly above
the foundation pad.
