28 Installing a Multi-Module Library
Preparing to Install a New Multi-Module Library
To prepare to install a new multi-module library, complete the following procedures:
• Attaching Control and Expansion Modules as System Units on page 28
• Testing the Digital Level on page 31
• Positioning the System Unit on page 30
• Verifying Level Condition on page 33
• Additional Leveling on page 34
• Setting the Leg Lock Nuts on page 35
Attaching Control and Expansion Modules as System Units
If you are installing four frames or less, you can bolt the frames together while the frames are on their
casters, and then raise and level the frames as one system unit.
Aligning and Bolting the Frames
1 Using the corner edges of the frames as a rough alignment, position the frames together so the
attachment bolt holes are aligned.
Verify that the attachment holes are aligned. If necessary, adjust the frame legs to better align the
attachment bolt holes.
2 Repeat the following steps for the front lower bolt, front upper bolt, back lower bolt, and back upper bolt,
in that order:
a. Insert the attachment bolt from right to left into the attachment hole
b. If the bolts do not slide smoothly into the holes, raise the appropriate leveling legs until they do.
c. Once the bolts are inserted, loosely thread the nuts onto the bolts.
Note
For older libraries, you may need to insert the back lower bolt from left to
right. See Technical Bulletin 6-00925, “Change in Procedure for Joining
i2000 Frames”.
