STACKING INCUBATORS
Use the following procedure to stack incubators. This work is potentially dangerous, so contact our sales
representative or agent.

Never stack 4 or more incubators.
Doing so is dangerous.

bag.
Note:
Use 2 stacking plates (A and B) for each one
. Only one pair of stacking plates is provided per an
incubator, so take out the stacking plates (A and B) from both incubators.

screws.

Remove from the back of the lower incubator the 2 hooks (4 screws) and remove from the upper
