Remove the lifting angle and fasten each section to the lateral restraint system using the same attachment points used to secure the lifting angle. Re-use bolts [3/8 (.375 in.) by 7/8 (.875 in.) long #16 thread] and lock washer (.094 in. thick) supplied with the lifting angle or hardware supplied by others as appropriate. Pay particular attention to the limitation on the depth the bolt can penetrate below the surface of the top plate. The bolts must not penetrate the top plate of the enclosure by more than 0.50 in.
