4 SECTION 4 Installing Your Shelf Rack STEP 2: PLANNING YOUR GLASS RACK - SHELF COMBO INSTALLATION Verify where the unit is to be placed in the van, taking into account all equipment being installed, shelf sizes, and the most convenient floor and wall mounting points. Mark floor and wall mounting locations. Verify that mounting locations will not puncture the fuel tank or break fuel lines, brake lines, and wiring harness. If the van has a floor liner mat, cut 1ʺ diameter holes using a hole saw to install blind fasteners directly into the sheet metal floor. Check for clearance around wheel wells, tire jack, fuel tank, fuel filler, brake lines, and wiring harness. STEP 3: DRILL & MOUNT FLOOR LOCATIONS Move the rack out of the way and drill the floor mounting holes. Verify again that mounting locations do not interfere with any of the aforementioned parts of the van. Install plus nuts in the floor (See pg. 7). Reposition the unit and check for alignment. Mount the unit to the floor. Use a washer and install mounting bolts into the plus nuts. Use shims (not supplied) as required to level the unit ensuring a solid connection to the van floor. Wait until the unit is attached to the walls before completely tightening the floor mounting bolts. Note: If you are installing this rack in a ProMaster van you must use the 5ʺ riser (P/N A) 4
