Removing/Installing Rear Access Panels
CAUTION!
Spring loaded locking rods prevent opening the rear panels without performing “Opening the Front Door” on
page 18, first.
There are three rear access panels.
•
Each access panel contains 1/4 turn locks and lift off to be removed.
•
Panels are interlocked and upper panels must be removed before removing lower panels.
•
The top rear access panel cannot be removed until two rods inside the primary equipment compartment are disengaged.
These rods should automatically disengaged when the front door is opened.
Refer to the following procedure to remove/install rear access panels.
Procedure
1.
Open the front door.
2.
From the front of the enclosure, verify that the left-hand and right-hand locking rods are in the forward position which
disengages the rods from the top rear access panel 1/4-turn locks. Refer to Figure 4.4.
3.
Use a can wrench and turn the 1/4-turn locks (after verifying locking rods in the above step) located at the top corners of the
top rear access panel according to the open-close labels. Refer to Figure 4.4.
4.
Slowly tilt the top of the top rear access panel down, until the safety chain attached to it can be accessed. Unhook the safety
chain from the top corner of the top rear access panel. Refer to Figure 4.4.
5.
Lift the top panel to disengage it from the tabs on the panel below it and pull it away from the enclosure.
NOTE!
The panel is electrically bonded to the enclosure with a 6 AWG cable. The cable is long enough to allow the panel to
be placed on the ground next to the enclosure. The cable should not be disconnected from the panel.
6.
To remove the lower panels, use a can wrench and turn the 1/4-turn locks located at the top corners of the rear access panel
according to the open-close labels (lowest rear panel only has one lock at the top center of the panel). Refer to Figure 4.4.
7.
Lift the panel to disengage it from the tabs on the panel below it and pull it away from the enclosure.
NOTE!
The panel is electrically bonded to the enclosure with a 6 AWG cable. The cable is long enough to allow the panel to
be placed on the ground next to the enclosure. The cable should not be disconnected from the panel.
8.
Reverse the above steps to reinstall the panels. Ensure that you re-attach the safety chain to the top corner of the top rear
access panel. Also, ensure the front door is in the open position before replacing the top rear access panel (when the front
door is closed, the two locking rods are automatically pushed in to engage the locking mechanism). Turn the 1/4-turn locks
according to the open-close labels to secure the access panel.
9.
Close and secure the front door.
