Before Unpacking the System
•Check the label or the packing slip on the outside of the
shipping box to verify that you received the correct shipment.
Depending on your order, you have received either a
rack-mountable system or a pedestal system.
•Verify that the Tip-N-Tell and Shockwatch indicators on the
outer sides of the shipping box are not activated.
CAUTION
!
Do not unpack the system if you did not receive
the correct shipment, or if an indicator on the
shipping box is activated. Contact the shipping
carrier and the purchasing agent for your system
immediately.
Unpacking the System
Tools needed: A pair of scissors or a utility knife
1. Place the shipping box in the location where the system will be
installed, leaving it right side up on its shipping pallet.
2. Use the scissors or knife to cut the shipping straps and remove
them from the shipping box. To avoid injury while cutting each
strap, hold the strap firmly with one hand as you stand away
from it.
WARNING
!
To avoid eye or skin injuries, be careful when
cutting the straps from the box. The straps
can snap with considerable force when cut.

3. Open the top cardboard flaps of the shipping box by cutting
through the taped portion of the flaps to release them.

case, place it on a table or other sturdy surface, and remove
its foam packaging material.
WARNING
!
To avoid back injury, lift and remove the
pedestal case with the assistance of another
person.
5. Remove the accessories box. Open the accessories box and
make sure that it contains (along with other items) the

WARNING
!
To avoid back injury, do not attempt to remove
the shelf unit or enclosures before you

unit and place it on a table or other sturdy surface and remove
its foam packaging material.

shipping pallet. Pull the foam blocks away from the first
enclosure and remove it. Then, do the same for the second
enclosure.
WARNING
!
To avoid back injury, lift and remove each
enclosure with the assistance of another
person.
9. Remove the enclosures from their plastic bags, then place the
enclosures flat on a table or other sturdy work surface near the
installation area.
Disposing of Packing Materials

Dispose of them according to applicable procedures or local
regulations.

packing materials, you can use them to ship the system at a later
time.

Guide.
