SECURING THE SAFE
NOTE: This safe must be secured to the floor.
Use the hardware provided.
NOTE: This safe must be mounted to the floor.
Failure to do so will compromise the safety and
security of the safe.
WARNING: Because this safe is
waterproof it will float if not secured.
As the water level rises, the safe will
begin to float and could fall over causing
personal injury.
The safe must be fastened to the floor using the lag
bolts and gasket washers provided with this safe to
insure the waterproof rating. Failure to do so will
void the waterprooof rating.
You must remove the safe from the skid/legs and place
the safe on the floor. Failure to do so will void the fire
and waterproof ratings.
Place the safe in the desired location. When your safe
is open, lift the carpeting up and locate the mounting
hole bushings. These bushings are filled with fire
resistant caulking which must be drilled out before
mounting the safe to the floor. Use a 3/8" diameter
drill bit to drill out this caulking. Continue to use this
drill to mark the hole location on the floor. Move the
safe away. Drill pilot holes in the floor as follows: For
a wood floor drill 5/16" diameter x 2-1/2" deep pilot
holes. For a masonry floor drill 7/16" diameter x
2-1/2" deep pilot holes for the anchors.
IMPORTANT: When you drill out the fire resistant
caulking from the mounting hole you must mount the
safe to the floor using the lag bolts and gasket
washers. Failure to do so will void the fire rating and
waterproof rating.
Reposition the safe and secure the safe with the lag
bolts and gasket washers. Replace the carpeting.
