3.2 Removing the Cabinet from the Pallet
This section describes how to remove the cabinet from the pallet.
Use the following procedure to remove the cabinet from the shipping pallet:
1. Remove any packing material remaining on the pallet.
WARNING
Serious personal injury may result if correct safety precautions are not
taken during the unpacking procedure. All personnel should wear safety
glasses. The ramps, ramp side rails, and metal hardware should be
inspected for the following defects:
• Cracks more than 25 percent of the ramp depth, either across or
lengthwise on the ramp
• Knots or knotholes going through the thickness of the ramp and
greater than 50 percent of the ramp width
• Loose, missing, or broken ramp side rails
• Loose, missing, or bent metal hardware
If any of these defects exist, do not use the ramp. Investigate alternate
means of removing the cabinet or order a new ramp. (The part number
for the ramp set is 99–08897–05.)
2. Remove the two unloading ramps from the carton and inspect them.
3. Attach the ramps by fitting the metal prongs into the holes on the pallet, as
shown in Figure 3–2. Make sure that the arrows on the ramps match up with
the arrows on the pallet.
4. Extend the ramps to their full length.
5. See Figure 3–3 for the location of the shipping bolts. Remove the bolts.
6. Remove the shipping brackets, shown in Figure 3–3, from the cabinet levelers
and set them aside.
