Install the seismic anchoring (alcove and close to wall anchoring)

The following steps instruct seismic anchoring of the pod in cases where the pod is installed in an alcove, close to a back or side walls.
  1. Place the template at the intended final location of the pod.
  2. Using the holes in the template as reference, drill holes for the anchors.
    Verify the required hole depth with anchor guidelines.
  3. Clean the drilled holes according to anchor guidelines.
  4. Insert all eight anchors into the holes. Install two of the seismic anchoring brackets for the backside of the pod (next to the wall).

    The thickness of the seismic anchoring brackets is ½ in (12.7 mm).
    The hole diameter in the brackets is 0.55 in (14 mm).

    Note:
    The anchors must protrude minimum 1 in (25 mm) from the floor to properly attach to the seismic anchoring bracket.
    Note:
    The nut and washer size depend on the anchor selected.
  5. The anchors should be torqued to bolt manufacturer's guidelines. It is important to check both the bolt manufacturer's literature and the Professional Engineering calculations for this project.
  6. Install the leveling feet to the pod floor.
  7. Install the casters to the pod floor.
  8. Assemble the pod normally according to the installation instructions.
  9. Before installing the floor body covers, install the seismic proofness plates.
    Note:
    Do not apply a torque greater than 15 Nm.
  10. Install the floor body covers.
  11. Install the brackets for the wall body covers.
  12. Install the plastic trims and fan cover.
  13. Carefully push the pod to the final location so that the feet in the backside of the pod are in the recesses of the anchoring brackets.
  14. Install the seismic anchoring brackets to the front of the pod.
