Appendix A Repackaging the Router
Repackaging the Routers
When the router and scissor-jack platform are installed on the pallet, the router
and scissor-jack platform are suspended over the well formed by the pallet body
and pallet front bar. When the scissor-jack platform is expanded to lower the
platform base and support the weight of the router, the bolts securing the
hold-down brackets to the top of the pallet can be removed. After the brackets
have been detached from the pallet, the router and scissor-jack platform can be
separated from the pallet by removing the pallet front bar from the pallet body and
pulling the pallet body away from the scissor-jack platform.
The side walls of the shipping container are formed by two U-shaped, interlocking
corrugated panels. The panels overlap to form the narrow ends of the container
and are locked together by twelve plastic locking clips inserted into holes in the
corrugated panels. Two foam inserts fit around the top of the router to act as a
protective cushion and add rigidity to the packaging scheme by serving as a fixed
buffer between the router, the corrugated side walls of the shipping container, and
the corrugated top cap that holds the side walls in place. With the corrugated top
cap installed, the entire shipping package is double-strapped end-to-end and
side-to-side to secure the shipping container and its contents to the pallet.
