Tennsco Shelving with Plywood Beams - Manual (Page 2)

3. With help from an associate, or using a wall for
support, connect two EUR uprights (Ref. No. 1a)
using two front-to-back supports (Ref. No. 2), one
at the top and one near the bottom (you should
leave the bottom-most
keyhole slot empty).
Be sure the
front-to-back
supports are
fully seated
in the key-
hole slots,
as shown.
NOTE: The
uprights must
be positioned
so that the
narrow part
of the slots
is toward the
floor, as shown
in the inset at right.
Tool Needed: A rubber mallet for seating the shelf supports into the uprights.
Two people are recommended for assembly. Approximate assembly time: 15 to 30 minutes per section.
ASSEMBLY OF ARCHIVE SHELVING
4. Repeat the instructions in step 3 to construct a
second set of unit ends.
NOTE: If you are planning to install an adder
unit, this second set of
uprights should consist
of ZTP uprights
(Ref. No. 1b)
so that
adjacent
sections can
be tied
together.
Carefully
review step 2
and step 9
to better
understand
this.
2. Depending upon
whether you ordered
a single unit or an
adder unit, you may
have one or both of
the styles of upright
shown at right:
Angle
Post (EUR)
"T" Post
(ZTP)
B. Two or more units with Angle Posts (EUR) on each
end and "T" Posts (ZTP) as intermediate uprights.
1. The reference numbers used throughout this
sheet refer to the illustration on the back cover.
This is to help you to identify the various parts
as they are mentioned.
5. With the help of an associate, connect the two
unit ends with left-to-right shelf supports (Ref.
No. 3). Again, be
sure that
the flat
surface of
the shelf
support is
facing up,
and that
the shelf
supports
are fully
seated,
as was
illustrated
in step 3.
A single unit will use EUR posts for all four
uprights, as shown below in Figure A. If you plan
on installing an adder unit, however, you should
build your starter unit
with two ZTP
posts on one end
(which will join
with the adder),
as shown in
Figure B.
NOTE: Inset is shown
from opposite side.
IMPORTANT: Support
MUST be inserted so
the flat surface is on
top as shown in pro-
file at left!
A. Single unit with
four Angle Posts (EUR).
