Important Safety Information
To avoid serious injury and damage to equipment or property, read
the following safety information before installing this equipment.
Do not attempt to assemble and install sneeze guards alone.
Installation of sneeze guards requires two or more people,
dependent upon unit.
Always wear proper protective eye wear when handling glass
sneeze guards.
Never spray cleaners directly onto sneeze guard surfaces.
Spray cleaner into non-abrasive cloth, and then wipe down
surfaces.
Use non-abrasive cleaners and cloths only. Abrasive cleaners
and cloths could scratch finish of unit, marring its appearance
and making it susceptible to soil accumulation. Use of abrasive
materials will void warranty.
Assembly and Installation

the items below are present.
• Face Panel, 1/4″ Glass
• End Panel, 1/4″ Glass

2. Remove the Mounting Flanges from each Post Assembly.
a. Slide the Flange Cover up and off of the flange.
b. Using the included hex wrench, loosen the set screw on the

IMPORTANT NOTE
Sneeze guards that consist of multiple bays require careful
measurement before installation of the Mounting Flanges.
3. Install the Mounting Flanges to the mounting surface.
a. Refer to the “Model EP5 Standard Sizes” chart and illustration
below to determine the location of the flanges. For multiple
bay installations, refer to “Width per Bay” column in the chart.

the screw hole locations. IMPORTANT! Measure carefully,
and make sure the flanges remain square to each other as
well as the installation location.
c. Pre-drill the screw holes in the mounting surface.
d. Install the flanges using the appropriate, #8 countersunk-
style fasteners for the mounting surface.
