SECTION ONE, PRE-ASSEMBLY
Shipment Inventory And Inspection
Shipment Inventory
At arrival, unpack and inspect the shipment to ensure it is complete and free of damages
that may have occurred during shipping. Compare the packing list with the shipment to
ensure all parts/components have been received in good condition. See FIGURES 1.1-1.2
Avoid using razor blade or cutting devices, product surfaces scratch easily.
Shipment Inspection
While verifying the shipment contents, take a moment to inspect each component for
damage. This should be done before the shipment is signed received and accepted. If
damaged components are apparent, follow the claim procedures set forth by the carrier.
Damage Reporting
Follow the instructions within Shor-Line’s
Damage and Freight Procedures. Contact Shor-
Line (800.444.1579) immediately to expedite the process.
After fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of merchandise, this policy becomes void.
Hole Template
The SHOR-LINE Portal comes complete with the
portal components, spacer, and hardware required to
complete the installation. The two cages that are to
be linked, using the Portal, will have to be modified to
receive the Portal.
The Portal does NOT include the hole Template
unless it was ordered at the time of purchase.
A .125" thick aluminum plate hole Template is
available and can be ordered to assist locating the
proposed holes in each cage. See FIGURE 1.1
The Template is useful and durable; the same
Template can be reused for each Portal installation.
It is important to locate the proposed holes perfectly aligned to each other in each
cage. The Template insures consistent location on both the left and right cages.
SHOR-LINE is not responsible for replacing mis-cut or damaged cages.
