2. Preparing the Floor Area for the
Cabinets
Before unpacking the cabinets, you must ensure that the installation area is
prepared for the equipment. You should have at hand the floor plan, which is
found in the Site Records, 450-1011-152, in the section labelled ‘Floor Plan’,
and the following tools and materials:
TOOLS:
1
Small wire cutter for plastic tie-wraps
1
Chalk Line.
MATERIALS:
1
Roll of Adhesive Tape, Durex Acetate Fiber
1
Felt Pen.
Preparing the Floor Surface. The floor surface should be firm and
unyielding, such as tile or wood covering, or low-pile carpet. This ensures
the stability of the cabinets and minimizes stress on cabinet interconnection
assemblies.
The floor must also be clean and free of any surface irregularities that might
affect the leveling of cabinets.
