The larger of these systems are extremely heavy and require three people
to de-skid them.
System cabinets are 2 meters tall and will not fit through doors that are 80
inches tall while on their skids. You may have to de-skid them before
getting them into the computer room.
Be sure all stabilizer feet are raised before de-skidding.
Depending up where you are in the world, you may receive a system completely
enveloped in heavy duty corrugated card board or "shrink wrapped". In either
case, you’ll have pictured instructions showing how to unpack and de-skid the
system inside.
• Step 1 is pretty self explanatory: you cut the straps, remove the top,
remove the screws hold the corrugated sides together and remove them.
Obviously, if the system came "shrink wrapped", you remove the wrap.
• Step 2, is self explanatory.
• Add to Step 3 the need to rise all stabilizer feet to their maximum height
before de-skidding. This is important. If the feet are not raised, they may
contact the floor at the bottom of the ramp and bend. Also, be sure to
place the ramps on the pallet such that the ramp rails are "inside" the
cabinet wheels.
• Step 4 indicates at least three people are required to remove the system
from the skid. These systems can weigh up to 1600 pounds - three
people are needed to control the system down the ramp.
