ASSEMBLING PALLET RACK

Choose your location to install

the LEVRACK.

Install the front and rear pallet rack beams.

Insert the rivets into the uppermost
keyholes. You may need a dead blow
hammer to properly seat the rivets.

Make sure the safety tab engages into the

key hole on the upright to prevent the
beams from dislodging.

If you are installing beams onto existing

pallet racking, the top of the beam will be
either 84” or 96” above the floor.
2 each P1 - Pallet Rack Upright
2 each P2 - Pallet Rack Beam
Remove protective film from LEVRACK
logo after beams are installed.

The pallet rack uprights and beams are heavy. Use team
lifting to handle these components.
Use caution when working on ladders or performing
overhead work.

ASSEMBLING PALLET RACK

A
B

Square the pallet rack uprights. The easiest way to accomplish this is to measure
diagonally between the legs and adjust until A and B are equal.

The pallet rack beams must be level, within 1/8” left to right and front to back.
Shim the pallet rack uprights as necessary.

If anchoring is required, use thru-holes

provided on footpad of each pallet rack
post.
Anchor size and type will be determined
by a structural engineer, local site
conditions, requirements or by governing
code. The pallet rack footpad has 0.625”
holes.

WIRE DECK AND LIGHTING

Place P3 Waterfall Deck on top of pallet

rack beams.

Hang the light under the waterfall

wire deck using the chain and “S”
hooks provided with the light.
Hang the A4 light as tight to the
deck as possible to reduce the
chance of hitting it when using your
LEVRACK
Tie power cord to waterfall wire deck
so the cord doesn’t interfere with
travel of the trolleys.

Failure to properly tie up the

light’s power cord could result
in damage to the cord and
personal injury.
 Page 9

INSTALLING TROLLEYS

Lift S1 Trolley under pallet rack

beams, keeping fixed wheels
toward front.
Engage wheel onto angles and
slide adjustable wheels tight to
opposing beam.

Ensure guide wheels are tight against

beam angle, and the trolley is square to
the beams.
Tighten the adjustable guide wheels to
55—60 ft/lbs.

BACK PANEL INSTALLATION

NOTE: Because an unsupported back is a

very flexible item, it is recommended that they
be handled with extreme care to keep from
possible bends and creases.

When moving a back panel it is

recommended that you carry it according to
the following illustration.

Fasten the Back Panel A3 to the Trolley S1

Pass machine screw H3 through Back Panel A3.

Slide on spacer H4.

BACK PANEL INSTALLATION

When installing a Levrack next to wall or

obstacle be sure to allow for space/clearance
for Upright Panel S2 Installation on each side of
Trolley S1

Check Backsheet placement.

Backsheet placement drives the

configuration moving forward.

For recommended “pod” configuration,

mount Backsheets opposite one another
as pictured.

INSTALLING UPRIGHT PANELS

Attach S2 Upright Panels to

the trolley S1.
Use (2) each per upright:
H1 Carriage Bolt
H2 Flange Locking Nut

Torque to 20—25 ft/lbs.

SHELF INSTALLATION

NOTE: Handle flexible back panel

with care.

Installation of Shelf Supports S3 will hold the back panel in place.

 Page 14

SHELF INSTALLATION

Install (4) pair of S3 Shelf

Supports per shelving section.
Insert rivets into keyholes and
drive down with a dead blow
hammer until seated.
Make sure each pair of supports
are level side to side and front
to back.

Place (1) S5 Shelf Reinforcement on

each pair of Shelf Supports

Shelf Reinforcements are not necessary

for shelf depths less than 18 inches.

Place (1) S4 Steel Shelf on each pair of

Shelf Supports
