Pin Installation
The following example shows how to use a quick release pin to join two MV212
cabinets together. This just shows one pin as an example, but all pins must be
installed. Exact details of the connections for various conīgurations are given in
the various chapters of this manual.
1. Support the weight of the components to be joined.
2. Pull out the lower pin of the top MV212 cabinet.
3. Align the top mounting link of the lower MV212 cabinet with the mounting
slot in the upper cabinet. Align the holes so the pin can pass through and
join them together.
4. Press the button (2) at the end of the pin, and insert the pin in as far as
it will go. The spring balls(1) will retract while the button is being held,
allowing the pin to pass through the holes.
5. Release the button (2) when the pin is fully inserted.
6. Check the pin is correctly inserted as far as it will go, and check that the
components being connected have been correctly captured together by
the pin.
7. With the weight of the components still supported, and without pressing
the button (2), try to pull on the pin sharply, to check it is secured in position
by the spring ball locking mechanism.
Pin Removal
1. Support the weight of the components to be disconnected.
2. Press the button (2) and pull out the pins joining the components together.
3. Carefully separate the components.
