Before Getting Started Tools and Equipment Required for Installation Almost everything that you need to install your AVTrac kit has been included. You will need some basic tools and materials depending on the facility and requirements. NOTE: All structural steps and electrical installation should be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local and national building codes and electrical codes.
Installation Step 1: Track Mounting At this point you must already have checked the contents of the kit and gathered the tools that you will need for installation. Before installation, ensure that the Extension Kit matches the AVTrac product to make a proper junction. WARNING: Existing AVTrac rubber inlay models may be mismatched with the cover track of the extension kit. This mismatch may present a tripping hazard. Consult an Extron representative for advice.
2. If the AVTrac will abut the wall, remove the baseboard from the bottom of the wall and mark the position of the AVTrac. Figure 3. Mark the wall. 3. Using a drill, box cutters, or a saw, cut a hole at the base of the wall 4 inches W x 1½ inches H (10.2 cm x 3.8 cm). If there is a metal base stud, use a hand saw or tin snips to cut it at both edges of the hole and bend it back into the hole so that it lies flat on the floor. Use a file to remove any jagged edges that might damage cables.
5. Pre-drill mounting holes in the shallow grooves of the base track and side ramps using a 1/4 inches bit for drilling metal (not supplied.) NOTE: Mounting holes must be a maximum of 3 feet (0.91 m) apart, and one must be within 6 inches (0.15 m) of each end of the track. Pre-drill holes in the shallow groove in the base track. Pre-drill holes in the shallow groove in the side ramp. Side Ramp Base Track Figure 6. Pre-drill the holes in the track and ramps. 6.
Step 2: Finishing Up At this point, the track must already have been secured to the floor. To complete the installation of the AVTrac, follow these instructions: 1. Lay the cables and power cords flat against the base track. If necessary, feed excess cable back into the wall. Snap the cover track onto the base track. Figure 10. Lay the cables flat and fit the cover track. 2. Before cutting and gluing the carpet, remove all dust and debris with a vacuum cleaner.
4. If the extension kit abuts the wall, use the provided template to trim the wall base board so that it fits snugly around the track. Figure 14. Use the template to cut the base board. 5. Attach the base board to the wall. Figure 15. Reattach the base board to the wall. 6. To insert a carpet inlay, cut a strip of the finished carpeting and glue or tape it to the cover track raceway. For an alternative rubber finish, use the optional rubber strip inlay kit (part number 70-670-01). Figure 16.
