Director 2/64 Installation Guide
WARNING:
The Director 2/64 weighs approximately 115 pounds. Use
proper handling and lifting equipment to reduce the possibility of injury or
product damage.
Two people will need to work together to transfer the director to the lift. Make
sure the wheels of the lift cannot roll as you transfer the director to the lift.
Move the director slowly and carefully onto the lift to prevent back and hand
injury. Dropping the director could injure personnel or damage the equipment.
1. Position the lift device next to the director.
2. Using a pallet jack, raise the pallet on which the director is mounted to the
same height as the top surface of the lift device.
3. Slide the director across from the pallet to the lift device.
4. Determine the appropriate rack mount position. Remember that the director is
9U (15.75 inches) high.
