SHIPPING DAMAGE
Upon receipt of equipment, the unit should be checked
for external signs of shipping damage. The skid must
remain attached until the unit is ready for installation. If
damage is found, the receiving party must contact the
last carrier immediately, preferably in writing, requesting
inspection by the carrier’s agent.
UNIT REMOVAL FROM SKID
HANDLING UNIT AFTER REMOVAL FROM SKID
If a wide and tall enough opening exists, the I-TEC can be
moved as a complete assembled unit. If not, it is designed
to break down into two sections to allow it to pass through
a 36 inch wide door.
1. Depress & release both top & bottom door latches and
open doors.
2. Remove the doors by lifting straight up and off from
the hinge pins.
3. Remove cabinet sides by first removing the four (4) sheet
metal screws from the front (leading edge) of the side
panel. The panel will not fall off. Swing the panel away
from the chassis 20 to 30 degrees & then pull forward
from the two (2) tabs supporting the rear edge.
4. On each side of the unit is a tie plate that secures
the top and bottom sections with four (4) cap bolts.
Using a ½ inch wrench or socket, remove these
screws from both plates and set aside.
5. If the unit is equipped with a CRV or ERV, you must
unplug the wire harness on the left-hand side of the
control box.
6. A forklift or a lift rated for the load is required to lift
the top section off from the bottom base. Do not
attempt to do this manually. Failure to do so could
result in the unit tipping over & causing bodily injury
and/or damage to the unit.
7. The top section can be forked from either the RH
or LH side. See Figure 1 for fork openings.
8. Carefully lift the top section straight up avoiding tipping.
9. Move the top section through the doorway and
place on flat surface free of debris.
10. The bottom base can now be moved through the
doorway the same way.
11. Reassemble the unit by reversing this procedure.
A forklift or a lift rated for the load (Figure 2A) is
required to lift the unit off from the skid. This unit is
top heavy and should never be tipped while moving it.
The I-TEC is designed to be lifted off the skid from the
front or rear of the unit without having to remove any
doors or side panels. See Figure 1 for fork openings.
The shipping brackets on front and rear of the unit must
be removed and discarded. The unit can now be lifted
straight up and the skid can be slid out from underneath.

WARNING
This unit is heavy and requires more than one person to
handle during installation and removal from the skid.
Extreme caution must be taken to prevent injury to
personnel and damage to the unit. Use appropriate
safety equipment, including gloves when handling.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
Tip unit from left side only.
Failure to do so may result in injury due to unit
top-heaviness or compressor damage!
