7� Tie tag lines to the provided tag line tie off on the bottom corners of the display. Refer
to Figure 3 .
8� Unbolt the display from the trailer by removing the shipping braces.
Note: For displays that require a section splice, complete the steps in Section 4:
Section Splicing (p�9) before continuing the installation process.
9� Locate the center-line label on the back of the display.
10� From the center of the display, measure and align the display mounting components
so they match the structure upright spacing. If a section splice is required, measure
the spacing before splicing the display because the splice plates should not be
loosened or moved after the display is spliced.
Note: Do not fully tighten the mounting components at this time as it may need to
be adjusted while attaching the display to the structure.
11� After aligning the mounting brackets, verify the ISP enclosure door will not experience
interference during installation.
12� If the display is two sections wide and has a vertical splice, either from the factory or
on site, locate the horizontal splice tube at the
splice location. This tube is shipped installed
and must be secured before lifting the display.
This tube also acts as a mount and can
engage an upright. If needed, before lifting
the display, loosen and slide the splice tube
until one of the alternate alignment lines aligns
with the display splice. Tighten all splice tube
bolts before lifting the display.
13� Lift the display off of the truck.
14� Slowly lift the display to the structure head and
guide into place with tag lines.
15� Lower the display along the uprights until it
rests on the ledger brackets.
16� Verify the display is resting on all ledger
brackets. If the display is not resting on all
ledger brackets, shim the ledger bracket
until it is in contact with the display. Refer to
Figure 4 .
Note: The support ledger is provided by the
customer prior to display installation.
Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 .
17� Slide the rocker clamps over until they engage
the upright flanges. Refer to Figure 5 .
