Important: Remove Shipping Pads prior to assembly.1. Set Wire Channel (C) onto Frame (A).2. Secure Wire Channel to Frame by

sliding it toward center of frame untilrectangular tab snaps into rectangularslot on frame.

Note:If Stacking Frame is to be installed on top of frame, install Wire Channels onto Stacking Frame first, then install Stacking Frame onto Frame.

3. Insert Connector Bolt and Washer through TopHole in Frame. Align Slot in Light Seal with Bolt.Insert Connector Bolt and Washer in Bottom and Middle Slots in Frame and slots in Light Seal.

Note:Light Seal is not needed were Frame meets connector or finished end. Also, when Frames of different heights are connected, Light Seal from shorter Frame should be used.

4. Slide two Frames together and push Bolts through both Frames to sandwich Light Seal between Frames.

5. Connect Frames together per instruction sheets 1B2GLX and 1B2GLT furnishedwith Products FT120 and FT121. (See note with step 4 for frames with Raceway Covers)

6. Be sure to install Top Bolt first, Bottom Bolt next, then Middle Bolt.7. Hand tighten Bolts untill all are installed. Then torque Bolts to 200 in-lbs.8.After all Frames are connected, level by adjusting Glides.

9. Insert Retainers on Raceway Cover Supports (G) into Cut-outs in Frame Bottom Rail. 24”, 30”, and 36” Frames gets 2, all other sizes get 4 Supports.10. Slide Supports in Cut-outs until Lip engages into Slot in Rail. The Arrow molded into top of Support points in the direction that support must slide. The Arrow should point toward the narrow ends of the pair of Cut-outs. To remove Support, depress re-lease and slide back.Note: Installers may prefer to install Supports prior to connecting frames together.

For Frames with Raceway Covers:

11. Remove Knockouts in Raceway Covers by striking with hammer at center of electrical Knockout and at each side near notches for telecommunication Knockouts. Knockouts must be hit from inside of cover. Cover must be supported slightly up from floor.Note: This can be done before Raceway Covers are installed onto frame or after

frame has been installed.12. Open Raceway Covers and position them on each side of Glide Stems.13. Slide End Bottom Braces to ends of Raceway Covers.13A. For Service Applications only - Insert 1 Raceway Brace Stuffer, on each side of Braces, center into the space between the Brace and the Raceway.

Note: Before closing raceway covers, install electrical harnesses and telecommunication lines.

14. Close Raceway Covers. Align Notch in Covers with Pins on Raceway Cover Supports. Make sure Edge of Covers engage on Retainers on Supports.

Note: To help align the Raceway Covers on adjacent Frames, the End Bottom Bracefrom one Frame can be slid over the bottom of the Raceway Cover on the Adjacent Frame.

Every wall run requires support. To ensure safe, supported and stable configurationsVivo® Interiors partial height walls must be supported properly and at appropriate inter-vals. All support requirements for the Vivo System should be used carefully:• When designing and specifying• When installing components and equipment• When reconfiguring workstations during the life of the facility• Support considerations for wall-height support

The following considerations are critical for determining proper support when using support walls, wall starts, open return frames and support pedestals:

• Height of wall run (highest frame or highest combination or regular and stacking frames)

• Length of wall run and frequency of support• Number and type of load-bearing components being supported.• Placement and width of support

While they are listed here in the sequence in which support decisions are usually made. All of these support considerations are interdependent: Changing one of them to meet certain needs may affect the requirements for the others. For example, while a 10’ run of 57” - high frames allows a maximum of two load bearing components per frame if the length of the wall run is reduced. This ability to adjust one factor to com-pensate for another allows designers and specifiers to meet user’s specific needs for privacy, space and amount of storage.

The first four considerations (the height of the wall run, the length of the wall run and frequency of support, the number and types of load-bearing components being sup-ported, and the height of support) are covered in the Vivo planning guide. The con-siderations related to the placement and width of support are summarized later in this section. Exceptions or additional details are contained in the sections covering each consideration.

For support considerations for Off Module connection, see instruction sheet 1B4JDR in FT127.

Walls run up to 4’ require 42” returnwalls. Wall runs greater than 4’ andup to 14’ require 48” return wall walls.Wall runs up to 14’ can also be supportedby two support walls (one on each side ofconnector) with a minimum width of 24”.

Height of RunFrames and stacking frames up to 90” to be no more than 22” difference in height between support walls.

When stacking frames greater than 90” in height (up to a maxi-mum of 112”h), wall run must be 8’ to 12’ in length and support walls must be no more than 11” lower than height of wall run.

Disassembly for Recycling:

Materials Identification and Segregation:Where possible, plastic components are marked with ASTM recycling codes. Use these codes to identify material type for recycling. Non marked components should be treated as mixed plastic. Ferrous metals can be identified using a small magnet for recycling. Non-ferrous metals should be separated and recycled separately.

To disassemble product, reverse steps 18 through 1.
