Chapter 3: Precautions  
3.0 Precautions  
• The LTD and LTDB must ONLY be connected to a 120 volt AC 15- or-20 amp power  
supply.  
• The LTD and LTDB must always be used by adults or with adult supervision.  
• The LTD and LTDB are not designed for outdoor use. Indoor use only.  
• Always stow the power cord around the unit when transporting.  
• Never pull the LTD by the power cord.  
• Do not plug the LTD in if the switch, receptacle(s), or power cord have been  
damaged. All electrical components on this product must be repaired by a qualified  
technician.  
• Do not use an extension cord in conjunction with the LTD.  
• NO LIQUIDS in or around the LTD and LTDB environment.  
• Inadequate repair can create significant hazards to users and is not covered by the  
warranty.  
• For your safety, it is recommended that a qualified electrician test the circuit you  
will be plugging the LTD into. The circuit should be checked for ground integrity  
and appropriate branch circuit protection.  
• The LTD ground prong must be present for safe operation. If the plug is damaged  
or if the ground prong has been removed, it should be replaced by a qualified  
technician.  
• The use of the LTD including: plugging in or unplugging laptop computers,  
plugging in or unplugging the LTD and LTDB, and engaging or releasing the  
directional and total lock casters must be done with adult supervision.  
• The LTD can be very heavy when fully loaded with laptop computers and should be  
moved about by persons physically able to do so.  
• The LTD should only be used for storage, transport (LTDB), and charging of laptop  
computers, tablet PCs, ultra mobile PCs, and other similar devices.  
• Misuse, incorrect operation, or inadequate repair of the LTD will void the warranty.

Chapter 4: Configuration and Setup  
4.0 Configuration and Setup  
Remove and discard all packaging materials. Open and inspect the LTD or LTDB to  
verify all doors, drawers, and locks are working properly.  
For the LTDB, lock the casters prior to setting up, loading, or unloading laptop  
computers to prevent the LTDB from moving.  
Feed the power strip cord through the grommet hole located on the side of the LTD.  
Do not plug the LTD into the wall outlet until all configurations and setup are  
complete.  
Attach power bricks to the dividers to create separate slots for the laptop computers.  
4.1 Installing Power Bricks on the Dividers  
Remove a divider to install a power brick on it. Follow these steps to install the power  
bricks on each divider:  
Step 1. Lay the divider flat on the work surface. Lay a laptop computer and a power  
brick on top of the divider, with the computer end of the power wire toward the top  
of the divider. Plug the power brick into the laptop computer. Lay the wire across the  
two holes at the top of the divider. Make sure that there is some slack between the  
front hole and the plug.

Make sure there

is slack at these  
two points  
Align the back of the notebook  
with the back of the divider

Chapter 4: Configuration and Setup  
Step 2. Note the point where the power wire meets the rear hole in the divider.  
Measure back 6" toward the power brick and fold the wire in half to create a loop in  
the center of the wire. This loop will be used in Step 3, below. Unplug the power  
wire from the netbook and remove the netbook from the divider.  
Figure 4-2. Loop the electrical cord and push it through the circular hole at the top  
rear of the divider.  
Step 3. Insert the loop created in Step 2 through the rear small hole at the top of the  
divider (Figure 4-2). Then, place the plug end of the wire through the loop (Figure  
4-3). Make sure that the loop is on the side of the divider (not on top of it—see  
Figure 4-4). This will ensure that the divider will slide back into the cart. Then, tighten  
the loop down to the divider, tightening the knot.  
Figure 4-3. Insert the plug end of the wire through the loop.  
Keep the loop here

Figure 4-4. Make sure the loop is on the side of the divider, not on top of it.  
Step 4. Run the wire along the top of the divider and repeat the process of creating  
a loop in the power cord. Place this loop through the small hole at the front of the  
divider (Figure 4-5). Now place the plug end of the wire through the loop (Figure  
4-6). Pull the end of the cable, tightening the loop (Figure 4-7).

Step 5. Wrap the remaining length of power cord around the power brick (see Figure  
4-10, page 12).

Chapter 4: Configuration and Setup  
Step 6. Wrap the plug wire around the brick. Leave at least 7" of extra cable if the  
divider will be inserted into the bottom shelf, or at least 21" of extra cable if the  
divider will be inserted into the top shelf.  
Lower shelf: 7"  
Upper shelf: 21"

Step 7. Hold the brick and cords in place by strapping them down using a zip tie or a  
hook-and-loop tie.

Step 8. Install the assembled divider into the cart using the following steps.

NOTE: For proper installation, make certain that all power bricks are installed on the  
same side of every divider.

4.2 Installing the Dividers  
Step 1. Working from left to right, insert the power cord of a laptop power brick  
that is mounted on a divider into the farthest left open outlet and then insert the  
divider into the LTD.  
Figure 4-11 Begin to insert dividers into the top row of the cart.  
Step 2. Repeat until all dividers are installed.
