2. Assembly Instructions

Installing the PET Unit Dose Cabinet

Required Tools:

 7/16" Wrench

 Phillips Screwdriver

1. Use a pallet jack to move the cabinet into the area in which it will be located.

Note: The jack can enter from the side or the front of the PET Unit Dose Cabinet after the

wood pallet is removed (if it is on a wood pallet).

2. Move the Cabinet into place.

Installing the Sharps Container Shield

Note: In the Continental United States, Biodex will factory mount the L-Block Shield and Sharps

Shield in place thus eliminating the need for on-site lifting equipment. If they are already

mounted, advance to the Installing the Dose Calibrator Chamber section.

Required Supplies:

Two ¼ – 20 eyebolts, which are not supplied. Screw them into the two threaded holes at the top

of the sharps shield.

Note: Two people are required to complete the following procedure.

1. Open the right cabinet door and remove the upper drawer from the cabinet. Depress the

tabs located on each side of the slide tray and pull the drawer straight out to remove.

2. Line up the ¼ – 20 eyebolts in the circular Sharps Container Shield with the eyebolt holes in

the countertop’s Sharps Container Shield cutout (located at the back right of the

countertop). The hinge side of the sharps container shield faces toward the right edge.

CAUTION: The Sharps Container Shield weighs 175 pounds (79.37 kg). Use a

forklift to hoist it into position.

3. With the aid of another person, lower the Sharps Container Shield into the cutout, making

sure the eyebolts fit securely into the notches and the Sharps Container Shield is resting on

the support plate inside the cutout with the rim flush to the countertop.

4. If desired, add silicon sealant to seal the Sharps Container Shield rim to the countertop.

5. Shims (P/N 244-200-M327) are supplied and used to fill the gap between the bottom of the

Sharps Shield and the top of the support bars (see Figure 2.1). Secure the shims using the

7/16" wrench, four 1/2"-13 x 1.50 Hex Head bolts (P/N C11217), and four 1/2" lock

washers (P/N C08349).
