2. For added stability or earthquake-resistant installations, the shipping brackets can be used to
secure the unit to the floor.
a. Refering to Figure 3.4 below, drill 10.3-mm (13/32-in.) holes in the floor to accommodate
the mounting bolts removed from the pallet.
b. Use the mounting screws to install the mounting brackets on the front and rear of the
UPS (the brackets were removed from the sides of the unit when removing it from the
pallet, see Remove the mounting brackets on page 24).
c. Secure the mounting brackets to the floor with the mounting bolts in the drilled holes. For
greater stability, use a higher-grade bolt.
