CONCRETE STRENGTH
The floor at the installation loca-
tion should consist of commer-
cial-grade concrete measuring
at least 2000 psi in compression
strength. The full effectiveness of
the mounting anchors depends
upon meeting this specification!
Check with the contractor/builder
or owner of the installation to
verify that this requirement can
be satisfied.
SELECTING THE
INSTALLATION LOCATION
Choosing the right location for your
ATM is very important. Security
concerns suggest a location that
is away from any door or external
access point. Ideally, the terminal
should be mounted as close to a
back wall as possible. For marketing
reasons, however, it may be desir-
able to locate the terminal near the
front where your customers can eas-
ily locate it. Wherever you decide to
locate the terminal, be sure to follow
the recommended procedures for
both mounting the terminal and for
removing cash when the unit will
be unattended.
Mark the location of the cabinet mounting holes on the concrete
floor. This is accomplished as described below:
1. Move the ATM to the location where it will be installed.
Open the cabinet vault door at least 90° to improve access.
Locate the five (5) anchor-bolt holes in the bottom of the
cabinet (each corner and center). Use a felt-tip pen or other
marker to carefully mark the center of each of the four corner
holes on the floor; these marks will serve as guides for the
anchor bolt holes that will be drilled in the next step. Move
the ATM aside to provide clear access to the mounting hole
marks. Center punch each mark to help align the drill bit.
2. Use a 1/4” [6 mm] diameter carbide-tipped masonry bit to drill
four pilot holes at the drilling points marked in the previous
step. Drill the pilot holes approximately 1/2” [12 mm] deep
into the floor. These holes will help guide the masonry bit that
will be used to drill the anchor-bolt holes in the next step.
3. Standard anchors: Use a 1/2” [13mm] diameter carbide-
tipped masonry bit to drill four holes at least 2-3/4” [70mm]
deep into the floor. Be sure to take into account the depth of
any floor covering, such as tile or vinyl when gauging the depth
of the anchor holes. Make sure the holes are drilled at least
2- 3/4” [70mm] into the concrete floor.
3a. Chemical anchors: Use a 9/16” [15mm] diameter carbide-
tipped masonry bit to drill four holes at least 4-1/2” [115mm]
deep into the floor. Be sure to take into account the depth of
any floor covering, such as tile or vinyl when gauging the depth
of the anchor holes. Make sure the holes are drilled at least
4- 1/2-inches [115mm] into the concrete floor.
TOOL USE/SAFETY
Observe ALL safety precautions for
operating hand and power tools!
Wear eye and ear protection while
operating the electric drill!
Mark/Drill Mounting Holes
4. Hole Diameter: Ensure the holes drilled are not too large
in diameter. Test fit the anchor bolts by hand. They should
require hammering, NOT NOW, and not fall into the hole.
Its easier to drill the holes larger now if necessary, than have
to move the cabinet and redrill later because they are too big.
DO NOT be tempted to install the anchors now. It is VERY
difficult to position the terminal onto the anchors because of
the weight.
