Required Tools
• Wire tie cutter
• Phillips-head screwdriver
• One ⁹⁄₁₆-inch wrench (crescent or combination)
• SAE Standard socket set with socket extension
Installation Requirements
Follow these installation requirements when assembling the unit:
• Assemble the unit near the location where you plan to use it.
• Provide ample space around the unit.
Open space around the unit allows for easier access.
• Set up the unit on a solid, flat surface.
A smooth, flat surface under the unit helps keep it level. A level
unit has fewer malfunctions.
• Open the box and assemble the components in the sequence
presented in this guide.
• Leave room for adjustments.
Tighten fasteners (bolts, nuts, and screws), so the unit is stable,
but leave room for adjustments. Do not fully tighten fasteners until
instructed to do so.
