1. Before unpacking the unit, make sure the
proposed site is acceptable and necessary
foundations have been prepared. For more
information, refer to Site and Utility Re-
quirements on page 2-2.
2. Remove the crating, strapping, and other
packaging materials except guide tapes
(Figure 2-3), the protective plastic cover
and the brown paper on the ironing cyl-
inder. These protective coverings should
be left in place so the unit remains clean
until it is ready to use.
3. Remove the exhaust blower assembly
from the crate and set aside.
4. Open both endframe doors and remove
any materials shipped with the unit. Close
and secure the doors.
CAUTION
The unit should only be
moved by qualied riggers
using proper equipment.
5. With the unit still on its skid, move it into
approximate position. Remove the bolts
which secure the unit to the skid.
CAUTION
Do not drop or twist the unit.
6. As appropriate, using care not to drop or
twist the unit:
• If the unit is equipped with eye bolts,
lift the unit straight up using the two
eye bolts on top of each endframe and
carefully remove the skid from under it.
• OR
• Lift one endframe and carefully re-
move the skid from under it and then
repeat for the other endframe.
7. The endframes of the unit should rest
rmly on the oor. If necessary, add shims
to level the unit. Secure the unit to its
foundation, if required by local code or
conditions. For use aboard a ship, the unit
may be welded at the foot pads.
