Installation Procedure:
1. The dimensions of the shelf are 6.94" (8.9" with XM2-
300HP installed) H x 10.12" W x 8.58" D (176.3mm /
226.0mm x 257.0mm x 218.0mm). Select a location that
allows sufficient clearance on the top, bottom and sides for
cabling required for the installation.
2. For center mounting, locate one stud and drill pilot hole.
Install first user-supplied 5/16" lag bolt and hang the
shelf using keyslot. Mark and drill second hole and install
second lag bolt. Secure both lag bolts once shelf is
positioned.
3. For corner mounting inside of enclosures, use drawing to
locate the four corner holes. Use four user-supplied 5/16"
bolts to mount shelf.
4. Install the SPI to the SPI bracket and torque to 130 in-lbs.
Follow the proper stack up as shown in Fig. 4 and mount
the SPI bracket onto either #10-32 (item 2, Fig. 3) studs
and tighten supplied #10-32 nut and lock washer.
The populated shelf weighs approximately 40 lbs (18.14kg). The
installer must verify the wall is capable of supporting the loaded
shelf. Direct mounting to a wall stud and use of customer-supplied
3/4" plywood backing is required.
