Assembly Procedures
Oxygen Therapy Plus Door Configurations
Oxygen Therapy Plus Door (O
2
Door) is available in several sizes. The doors are designed
to be installed onto existing (sold separately) stainless steel cages. Verify the width and
height of the cage with the dimensions of the O
2
Door to be installed.
The O
2 Door is equipped with Type III hinges, but with a hinge conversion kit the Type III
O
2
Door can be used with some older model Type II hinge cages. Contact Shor-Line Technical
Service department to verify cage door types and compatibility (1.800.444.1579).
A second door equipped with vents only is used in combination with an O
2
Door when
converting a 48" wide cage to a double door oxygen therapy cage. Double door cages
share a latch bar centered between the doors. The door hardware and components can be
reoriented to either locate the O
2 Door on the left or right side of the cage.
Do NOT use power tools for any procedures listed in this manual. Doing so can scratch
product surfaces and/or cause hardware to fail. Do NOT over-tighten hardware.
Cage Door Removal - Single Door
Door hinges may vary depending on the cage model used for the Oxygen Therapy Plus
Door configuration. Type III cages are used for these procedures. Contact Shor-Line for door
removal procedures and hardware requirements for older model cages.
If equipped, lock all casters on mobile cage banks to prevent movement during the
installation procedures.
Enlist help and USE SAFE LIFTING PRACTICES during assembly, installation and
moving equipment.
Keep hands clear of possible pinch areas when assembling parts, which if not avoided,
could result in MINOR to MODERATE INJURY.
STEP 1:
Slide the latch bar up and swing the door to the open position (90
°
