SECTION PRIOR TO BEGINNING
INSTALL
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. Use one to two dollies to relocate the
merchandisers 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.
