UNLOADING CASES FROM TRAILER
To protect the case and its base from damage and
make positioning the case easier, each merchandiser
can be shipped dierently, depending on the original
order request. Your case(s) could be on a skid, rails,
crated and skidded, or just blanket wrapped.
Improper handling may cause damage to the
merchandiser when unloading. To avoid damage:
1. Do not drag the merchandiser out of the trailer.
Use a Johnson bar (mule, aka J-bar), a dolly or a
forklift.
2. Use one or two dollies depending on length of the
case to remove the merchandiser from the trailer.
3. Useonetotwodolliestorelocatethemerchandisers
to the lineup.
NOTE:
When lifting case, be sure to lift case from
a point on case body. Improper lifting may
damage factory-installed end panels.

REMOVING SHIPPING SKID AND/OR CRATE
DO NOT TILT or LAY MERCHANDISER
ON ITS SIDE.
1. Check oor where cases are to be set to see if it
is a level area. Determine the highest part of the
oor.
2. If the case is crated, unscrew/remove nails from
one (1) of the walls of the crate, leaving three (3)
sides and the top of the crate.
3. Then unscrew/remove the nails from around the
base of the crate (frame), releasing it from the skid.
4. CAREFULLY remove/slide away the remaining 3
walls and top of the crate. (Body panels should
be on the case, but if they are not, carefully
remove and set aside in safe place so as not to be
damaged/scratched)
5. Remove any braces/L-brackets attaching the
merchandiser to the skid.
6. Remove the merchandiser from skid, by lifting only
at base of case, using the case’s rails!
7. Once the case is removed from the skid, the
merchandiser must be lifted —NOT PUSHED— to
reposition.
