BUMPER AND KICKPLATE
A Zero Zone bumper is standard on all case models and should be installed at the bottom front of the case. Various bumper styles are
available (Figure 16 on page 18). The kickplate assembly is adjustable to compensate for uneven oors. The bumper end cap is
factory installed on bumpers for cases with end panels that do not include Euro trim.
INSTALLING END KICKPLATE
(Figure 17 on page 18)
The end kickplate attaches to the small black bracket attached to each side of the case with an end. The kickplate can be adjusted
vertically to match the height of the oor below it.
1. Attach a Tinnerman clip to the side bumper support.
2. Place the side kickplate against the Tinnerman clip on the side bracket.
3. Install the black ¾" screw through the side kickplate and into the Tinnerman clip. A scratch-awl or similar tool can be used to line up
the holes.
4. The front of the side kickplate is located behind the front kickplate and attached with screws to the front kickplate.
INSTALLING BUMPER
(Figure 17 on page 18)
The front kickplate and bumper attaches using 1½" screws attached to brackets located on the front of the case. The kickplate can be
adjusted up and down to t the height of the oor below it.
1. Starting from the left end of the lineup, attach a Tinnerman clip to each bumper support bracket. Locate them over the hole for the
bumper.
2. Attach the kickplate splice to the right side of the kickplate using the ¾" screw in the lower hole.
3. Lean the kickplate against the bumper support bracket.
4. Hang the bumper on the case. The kickplate should be located behind the bumper.
5. Install the black 1½" screw through the bumper, kickplate, kickplate splice, and into the Tinnerman clip. A scratch-awl or similar tool
can be used to line up the holes.
6. Follow these steps to install the next bumper in the lineup. A bumper splice (provided) should be installed between the two cases.
Center the splice and adjust the height so the decorative tape (if applicable) lines up. Using self-tapping screws (provided), attach
the upper portion of the splice using the predrilled holes in the splice. Then with two more screws, attach the lower half.
