The cabinet is shipped bolted to a wooden pallet and protected with an outer wood container (see Figure 6).
WARNING
The UPS cabinet is heavy (see Table 3). If unpacking and unloading instructions are not closely followed, the
cabinet may tip and cause serious injury.
1. Carefully inspect the outer packaging for evidence of damage during transit.
CAUTION
Do not install a damaged cabinet. Report any damage to the carrier and contact an Eaton service representative
immediately.
NOTE For the following step, verify that the forklift or pallet jack is rated to handle the weight
of the cabinet (see Table 3 for cabinet weight).
2. Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the packaged cabinet to the installation site, or as close as possible,
before unpacking. If possible, move the cabinets using the pallet. Insert the forklift or pallet jack forks
between the supports on the bottom of the pallet (see Figure 4 for the UPS cabinet center of gravity
measurements).
CAUTION
Do not tilt the UPS cabinets more than 10° from vertical or the cabinets may tip over.
3. Set the pallet on a firm, level surface, allowing a minimum clearance of 3m (10 ft) on each side for
removing the cabinet from the pallet.
4. Remove the protective wood container from the cabinet:
NOTE For the following steps, use pincer type pliers or a large flat blade screw driver to
straighten the securing tabs.
a. Straighten the tabs securing the top panel of the wooden container to the side panels of the container.
b. Remove the top panel and retain for later use as a ramp in unloading the cabinet from the pallet.
c. Straighten the tabs securing the side panels of the container to the front and back panels of the
container.
d. Remove the side panels.
e. Straighten the tabs securing the front and back panels of the container to the bottom of the container.
f. Remove the front and back panels.
5. Remove the inner protective packaging. Retain the parts kit box, ramp brackets, and ramp extension
packed at the top of the cabinet.
6. Recycle the remainder of the outer shipping container and the inner protective packaging in a responsible
manner.
7. Inspect the contents for any evidence of physical damage, and compare each item with the Bill of Lading.
If damage has occurred or shortages are evident, contact an Eaton service representative immediately to
determine the extent of the damage and its impact on further installation.
