Chapter 9: Site Preparation – Receiving and Moving Instructions: Uncrating The System

Using the 5-millimeter hex wrench, remove all the

bolts that fasten the brackets to the testhead. Remove

the brackets from the pallet with the 9/16-inch

open-end wrench or a socket wrench.

10 If you have a 307X system, push the testhead away

from the support bay to provide better access to the

support bay’s shipping brackets. Remove the bolts

connecting the support bay to the brackets with the

6-millimeter hex wrench. Remove the remaining

bolts from the support bay brackets with the

9/16-inch open-end wrench or a socket wrench.

11 With the 9/16-inch open-end wrench or a socket

wrench, remove the four seven-inch bolts that

stabilize the deck of the pallet. This prevents the

casters from catching on them when you roll the

system off of the pallet.

12 Before rolling the system off of the pallet:

■ Clear all people, tools, and equipment from the

area that the system will roll into.

■ Make sure the leveling feet for both the testhead

and support bay, if included, are up. Otherwise,

the feet may drag against the pallet and bend.

■ For a 307X system, replace the foam that was

placed between the testhead and the support bay

to prevent scratching and denting of the cabinets.

WARNING

✸

Use at least two people to roll the tester off of the

pallet. For a 307X system, one person should

steady the two bays as the second pushes them

down the ramp.

Be careful not to push against the plastic skirt that

surrounds the modules of the testhead.

13 Discard all the packing material and the pallet, unless

you anticipate shipping the system to another facility.
