3.0 Installation of the Platform Rocker
3.1 Unpacking
Before starting the installation, carefully examine the rocker for possible
damage or missing parts.
ZZ Open the box and carefully remove the padding. Check that the rocker
has not been visibly damaged during transportation. Keep the packing
material until you ensure that the rocker works properly.
ZZ Carefully lift the device out of the box.
ZZ Be sure that the following information is included on the serial label
located on the back of the unit:
• Serial Number
• Product Number
• Electrical Rating
ZZ Ensure that the power cord has a pin configuration that fits into a wall
socket according to the local standard.
Should any kind of damage have occurred during transportation, contact
the carrier immediately. The carrier is responsible for shipping damage.
3.2 Selecting the Location
ZZ Put the rocker on a horizontal, leveled, and stable surface
ZZ Leave enough space around the rocker for normal air circulation (10 cm
minimum)
ZZ Leave enough space around the rocker for easy access and maintenance
ZZ Avoid locations subject to shocks and vibrations
ZZ Avoid locations subject to frequent power fluctuations or power losses,
as this may affect rocker performance
Select a location that is dry and not subject to drafts or moving air from
heating or air conditioning vents or air blown by other equipment. Place
the unit on a flat, preferably non-flammable, surface. Allow sufficient
room around the unit for access and cooling (six inches minimum on all
sides is suggested). Plug the unit into a properly grounded outlet. Using
the lifter, insert the block(s) into the well. The unit is now ready for use.

touch plug with wet hands! Do not pull the plug by the cord!
3.4 Installing Double Stacking Platform
