The IBC–SW is bolted to a pallet consisting of four metal angle supports secured to two wood supports.
To remove the pallet:
CAUTION
Do not use the jacking bolts on a soft surface floor. Use only on a hard surface, such as concrete. If
necessary remove pallet on a hard surface and roll cabinet to final installation position.
1.
If not already accomplished, use a forklift or pallet jack to move the IBC–SW to the installation area, or as
close as possible, before unloading from the pallet. Insert the forklift or pallet jack forks between the
supports on the bottom of the pallet (see Figure 3-3 for the IBC–SW cabinet center of gravity
measurements).
2.
Remove the front cover by loosening the left and right side bottom mounting bolts and remove the two
mounting bolts on the top. Lift the cover to disengage the cover from the bottom bolts then set the cover
to the side in a safe location. Retain the hardware for later use.
3.
Locate the four 1/2" jacking bolts from the parts bag packed inside the front cover and install them in the
threaded holes in the front and rear supports as shown in Figure 4-1. Place a floor protector from the parts
kit underneath each jacking bolt, and screw the bolts down against them.
The floor protectors protect the floor from being marred by the jacking bolts.
WARNING
Do not remove or loosen the cabinet mounting or cabinet support bolts until instructed.
4.
Loosen, but do not remove, the skid mounting bolts holding the front and rear supports to the pallet skids
(see Figure 4-1).
WARNING
RISK OF INSTABILITY. Turning the jacking bolts unevenly may cause the cabinet to become
unbalanced. To prevent tipping the cabinet, raise and lower the jacking bolts evenly.
CAUTION
CABINET MAY TIP. Raise the IBC–SW no more than 3 mm (1/8") above the floor (just enough to
allow the removal of the pallet skids).
5.
Turn each jacking bolt consecutively, two full turns, until the pallet skids clear the floor by approximately
3 mm (1/8").
6.
Remove the hardware loosened in Step 4.
7.
Pull the pallet skids out from under the metal angle supports without disturbing the jacking bolts. Recycle
the pallet skids and hardware in a responsible manner.
CAUTION
CABINET MAY FALL. Do not loosen the hardware attaching the front supports to the cabinet base.
The cabinet must be lowered by the jacking bolts before the supports can be removed.
8.
Carefully and evenly
lower the cabinet by turning each jacking bolt consecutively two full turns
(maximum)
until the casters contact the floor and the cabinet is no longer supported by the jacking bolts.
