With the left-hand case leveled
in its permanent position, move
the joining case into alignment
approximately 4 in. (102 mm)
from left-hand case.
Slide the
Partition Assembly — 4
between the two cases and raise
it to align its joining holes with
those in the cases.
Insert long narrow rods (or
screwdrivers) through three or
more joining holes of the cases
and the partition to maintain
alignment, then bring the cases
firmly together to compress the
gaskets against the partition.

Fasten the cases together
through the end frames with
Washers — 5 under the head
of Cap Screws — 6 as shown
in Figure 5. Thread screws into
nut retainers at the locations
shown.
Once all the cap screws and
washers are in place, tighten in
the order shown in Figure 5.
Do not attempt to draw the cases
together with the cap screws.
Push the second case against the
partition and first case, compressing all gaskets. Overtightening
can distort the end frame and
cause an incomplete seal which
will result in adverse case
performance, including leakage.
At lower front location, use
Hex Head Lock Nut — 7
and Cap Screw — 6 with
Washer — 5 under the head
as shown to fasten the partition
between the cases.
