Unpacking and Inspecting Your Equipment
Follow the steps in this section to unpackand inspect your new computer system.
Although it may seem simpler to unpackitems as you install them, it is important to
verify that your equipment arrived as ordered and undamaged before you start.
1. Remove and set aside the packing slip from the outside of each shipping carton;
open the cartons one by one and remove the equipment. As you do so, inspect
the equipment carefully for visible damage.
CAUTION: Handle your computer equipment carefully; do not drop or jar it. Lift
by grasping firm surfaces only.
2. Refer to Figures 1-4 through 1-7 to unpackthe computer unit.
NOTE: The computer unit can weigh over 70 pounds. Unpacking the unit
involves a vertical lift of approximately six inches, and requires control
of the entire unit while it balances at angles approaching forty degrees.
While the instructions in Figures 1-4 through 1-7 should enable you
to unpackthe unit alone, you might want the help of another person.
Place the carton horizontally (as indicated
on the outside of the carton) on the floor.
Carefully cut the packing straps, then lift the
shipping cover from the shipping tray.
