About these instructions
Read the entire manual before starting assembly. Follow the directions in the manual to make sure the product complies with current standards.
The purpose of these assembly instructions is to facilitate correct installation and to inform of risks and how to avoid them. Bear in mind that the instructions are for your safety and the safety of others.
Use the assembly instructions and instructions for use in conjunction with:
* assembly
* regular inspections (together with the periodic inspection template)
* taking corrective action as directed
Each installation must be fitted with a load sign located in a clearly visible place.
Perform regular checks to ensure the technical safety of the pallet racking. Information about pallet racking inspections are available on our website www.blsab.se.
Parts of the installation instructions and instructions for use refer to the Swedish Standard SS-EN 15635:2008 - Steel static storage systems – Application and maintenance of storage equipment. If necessary, the purchaser or user can obtain the above standard from SIS. See www.sis.se for further information.

Underlying surface
The client/user must make sure the floor is able to bear the relevant loads.
Anchoring
Pallet racks must be anchored to the floor to prevent the uprights from moving when mechanical handling equipment is used in or near warehouse fixtures.
Safety
Correct rack assembly is essential for a safe structure. Assembly must be carried out professionally and in accordance with these instructions.

Installing bays
1. Level the floor.
Starting from the highest point, adjust any unevenness using levelling plates. (D)
2. Erect a starter bay and install beam safety pins in the beam safety holes. (E)
3. Check that the frames do not exceed the specified tolerances with regard to incline.
The incline in relation to plumb may not exceed 3 mm per metre in depth and laterally.
Leveling plate
4. Install 2 distance spacers between each frame pair. Install distance spacers where braces meet.
Use 2 distance spacers per bay for bays up to 7 metres. If the bay is bigger than 7 metres, use a 3rd distance spacer.
Distance spacers are only fitted for double racks. (F)
5. Anchor base plates using 2 pcs Multi-Monti 10×80 (for concrete) or 2 pcs M10×90 expander bolts (for asphalt). (D)

Inspection & Maintenance
Inspection and service according to SS-EN 15635
SS EN-15635 is the European standard for steel static storage systems and outlines guidelines for the installation, operation, and maintenance of the storage system.
Assembly inspection
Inspect the assembly before putting the pallet racking into service to confirm compliance with the assembly instructions.
Regular inspection
Storage systems must undergo a visual inspection every week or at other regular intervals to ensure that no load-bearing parts are damaged. A formal written report must be prepared for the regular inspections.
Periodic inspection
Storage systems must be inspected annually by an individual with the requisite technical knowledge.
The inspection, along with specified risks and measures, must be documented in a report and submitted to the person responsible.
Damage to the storage systems
Damage to load-bearing parts in the racking must be remedied immediately by replacing the part as this poses a safety risk. Other parts may be repaired.
For more information, refer to SS-EN 15635 Steel static storage systems - Installation, operation and maintenance
Checks during regular inspections
1. Check that there are beam safety pins on all sides of the beams.
2. Check that there is no damage to the beams, uprights, and bracing members. If necessary, replace damaged components immediately as they pose a safety hazard.
3. Check that there is a load sign and that it refers to the relevant racking configuration. At least one sign must be clearly visible.
4. Check to ensure the pallets and beams are not overloaded.
5. Check that there is an upright protector on the frames and uprights, and that the forklift aisles are correctly sized.
6. Check to ensure the floor is not damaged and that the racking is anchored to the floor.
Incline
The incline in relation to plumb may not exceed 3 mm per metre in depth and laterally.
Damage
In the event of damage of a local nature (dents, kinks, tears and cracks), always replace the parts.
Tolerance
The maximum residual vertical deformation (after unloading from the maximum load) must not exceed the beam length L/200. Maximum residual horizontal deformation L/400.
Deformed uprights
Uprights may deform outwards a maximum of 5 mm/m in relation to plumb along the length of the racking, and a maximum of 3 mm/m along the depth..
Brace deformation
Brace deformation must not exceed 10 mm per metre. This applies regardless of the direction of deformation.
