Unpacking the PTX10008
After you prepare the installation site as described in “PTX10000 Site Preparation Checklist” on page 149,
you can unpack the router.
NOTE: The chassis is maximally protected inside the shipping box. Do not unpack it until you are
ready to begin installation.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to unpack the PTX10008:
•
A 13/32 in. (10 mm) open-end or socket wrench to remove the bracket bolts from the shipping pallet
•
A box cutter or packing knife to slice open the nylon straps and tape that seal the crate and boxes
The chassis ships in a cardboard box that has a two-layer wooden pallet base with foam cushioning between
the layers. The router chassis is bolted to the pallet base.
The shipper has the option to either ship the front panel separately or to ship along with the chassis. If
the front panel arrives with the chassis, set aside the front panel box until you are ready to verify the
contents of the order.
