Mounting Upright in a High, Fixed Location
This topic describes how to mount the unit in a high location using the supplied ceiling bracket.
- To mount the unit in a high location, ask a professional contractor.
- When mounting in a high location, make sure that the mounting surface and mounting material (excluding accessories) can support 200 kg (440 lb 15 oz) or more, and mount the unit as described in this Help Guide. If the mounting is not sturdy enough, the unit may fall and cause serious injury.
- Attach the supplied fall prevention wire rope to the unit to prevent the unit from falling.
- When the unit is mounted in a high location, check that the mounting has not become loose once a year. Shorten the inspection interval according to the usage conditions.
