COMPONENT RECOGNITION
The Deepstor racking installation comprises of the following main elements: 
 
• Load Arm and Automatic Safety Lock
• Pallet Rail and Fixings
• Pallet Rail Splice and Fixing
• Top / Back bracing and Top Channel
• Upright Frames, comprising uprights, bracing and Base plates.
 
Each should be inspected to the following recommendations. 
 
REPORT ALL DAMAGE
If the racking is damaged it should be reported immediately to ensure the necessary precautionary 
actions are taken. 
 
REPLACE DON’T REPAIR
• Repair of damaged rack components is not recommended.
• Any component no longer fit for use should be replaced on a like for like basis. 
• If the bottom portion of an upright is damaged, it is preferred that the whole upright be 
replaced. However, splicing of uprights is limited to repair work only on intermittent uprights 
and the splice position must be above 60% of the total upright height and equidistant 
between rail levels. 
• Never apply heat in an attempt to straighten bent components.
