Installing the Modules:
Starting along the lower left or right corner
of the table, slide the end clamp onto the
end of the module mounting rail (ST-AK
60/37 or ST-AK 66/37).
Place the first module onto the rails in
landscape mode and position it against
the end clamps. Fasten the end clamp
screws by turning them counterclockwise to
tighten the end clamp to the module frame.
(Torque: 6 to 8 ft. lbs.).
See Figure 10.2 & 10.3
Two end-clamps are used
on each end of a column of
landscape oriented modules.
See Figure 10.3
Once the module is
mounted, click the
mid clamp onto the
module rail and slide the
clamp onto the module
frame.
See Figure 10.4
Now, slide the next module under the mid
clamp. Next, adjust the mid clamp to the
module height, and tighten the hardware
clockwise.
See Figures 10.5 & 10.6
(Torque: 6 to 8 ft. lbs)
Continue process on all rows of modules.
Module end clamps will also be installed
in the same manner as Figure 10.7 on the
opposite end of the table.
