WARNING!
• Existing building structure types and framing
considerations vary greatly from building to building,
therefore each installation of this unit (including but not
limited to the building structure, brackets, hardware and
any
other structural supports) shall be approved by a
structural
engineer licensed in the governing jurisdiction.
Subsequent
building alterations or addition of other nearby
high vibration
equipment may require follow up analysis by
the licensed
structural engineer. Unapproved installations
can result in
falling equipment leading to severe personnel
injury or
death.
• High seismic locations may require special reinforcement
and additional lateral support. Follow governing local
building codes for inspection requirements following any
significant event. Significant events include but are not
limited to seismic and other impacts to the unit or structural
mounts.
• Do not store other material on top of or hang anything
from unit.

maintenance procedures
NOTICE!
• Do not locate other heat generating equipment nearby
that could raise the ambient temperature around the unit
above the max rating stated in the Technical Specifications
section.
• For unit to meet designed operation efficiency, do not
allow other equipment to obstruct the free flow of air to the
side intakes and from the front fan exhaust.
• Refer to the maintenance section for recommended
procedures to ensure unit functionality and safety
throughout the life of the product. For most unit
maintenance procedures, ensure access to front and sides
of unit using OSHA approved access equipment.
