3.3 Unpacking the Components
If an installation was ordered, we recommend leaving the system packed until a service representative
arrives.
Inspect shipment upon receipt
Before unpacking the system, please note the condition of the
boxes, shock watch sensors and tilt watch sensors. The boxes
should be intact and strapped to the pallets. If there is any
visible damage or if the sensors have been tripped, contact an
authorized service representative immediately and do NOT
proceed with unpacking.
Retain equipment packaging for future use
We recommend saving the original equipment packaging (foam, box, and pallets). The packaging is
specially designed to support and stabilize the equipment and will required if the unit needs to be
transported in the future. Some components must be packed upright on a pallet to avoid damage.
