Before starting the assembly of the stand, please ensure that all stand components are available.
For a battery above 150V, insulators will be provided with the stand.
Assembly instructions
Please follow the instructions below in conjunction with the drawings below. To accomplish these operations only a 13mm
spanner is required.
1. Mount and fasten insulators with bolts (9), screws (14) and washers (15) under each support (1).
2. Insert bolts (6) into washers (7) into upper slots of support (1), then screw into anchor plates (3) and connections
plates (4). Do the same with the other support (see details A and B).
3. Join rails (10) and supports (1). Space rails to the correct width.
4. Tighten all bolts. Cells can now be installed.
5. Please ensure that the stand is levelled using a spirit level. If required, use the spacers provided (16).

Cells should be connected in series.
Assemble the battery on the stand, ensuring that the positive terminal of one cell is connected to the negative
terminal of the adjacent cell and so on throughout the battery.
Do not lift cells by their terminal posts. Use appropriate equipment (such as a raising board and a sling band)
for handling standby cells.
Cells are supplied with special air-tight plugs which must be replaced with standard vent plugs (supplied
separately) once cells have been filled with electrolyte.
For 4-tier stands and above, we recommend the cells are filled before being placed on the stand.
Note: the maximum fill to charge time is 12 hours (see section 4).
Cell installation
Please follow the instructions below.
1. Position the first cell on the stand, starting with the
least accessible row. Check the alignment of the cells.
2. Install the other cells with the appropriate spacing between
cells in mind.
