1. Uncrate the display sections and check the integrity of the
cabinet. Check for any obvious deformation or flaws from
transport. Refer to the DD3016690 DVX-11X2/1502/1801
Series Shipping Frame Field Instructions for crate disassembly
instructions. The mounting and interconnect hardware is
included in colored bags in the display sections. The bag
color and storage locations are as follows:
•
Interconnect hardware: blue bag in the bottom of each
stacked or single-high section
•
Mounting hardware: red bag in one section of each crate
•
Weldless hardware: green bag in the bottom of each
stacked or single-high section (if applicable)
2. Use the lifting lugs on the full-height tubes to lift the
sections into place. Refer to Figure 1 on page 1. Install
the bottom-center section (Section 202 in Figure 2 on
) first unless otherwise specified.
3.
Ensure the first section installed is vertically plumb and
horizontally level before permanently attaching it to the
structure.
• For all subsequent sections, install all interconnect
hardware in any adjacent sections while still attached
to the crane and before permanently attaching to the
structure. Refer to Figure 2 on page 1 for connection
details.
4. Secure the section until it is permanently attached to the
structure using only one of the two methods described
below:
• Leave the crane connected to the section lifting lugs until Step
8 is complete and the section is permanently attached to the
structure.
• Install

″ eyebolts in the rear of the full-height tubes if a
sufficient structure exists and tie come-along winches back to
the structure. Refer to Figure 3 on page 1. After the section
is secured with the come-along winches, the crane can be
released to pick up the next section. The come-along winches
should remain attached to the section until Step 8 is complete
and the section is permanently attached to the structure.
5.
Adjust the top and bottom clip angles flush to the structure
surface.
