WARNING
• The IBC is heavy (see Table 1 , Table 2 , Table 3 , and Table 4 ). If unpacking and unloading instructions are
not closely followed, the cabinet may tip and cause serious injury.
• RISK OF INSTABILITY. Do not remove any internal panels until the cabinet is removed from and lowered
from the pallet.
• Do not tilt cabinet more than 10° from vertical.
• Lift the cabinets only with a forklift or pallet jack or damage may occur.
• Ensure forklift is rated to handle the weight of the cabinet.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in severe injury or death.
NOTE For the following procedures, verify that the forklift or pallet jack is rated to handle the
weight of the cabinet (see
Table 1 , Table 2 , Table 3 , and Table 4 for cabinet weight).
The IBC is bolted to a pallet consisting of two metal angle supports and two flat supports secured to two wood
supports.
To remove the pallet:
CAUTION
Do not use the jacking bolts on a soft surface floor. Use only on a hard surface, such as concrete. If necessary
remove pallet on a hard surface and roll cabinet to final installation position.
1. If not already accomplished, use a forklift or pallet jack to move the IBC to the installation area, or as close
as possible, before unloading from the pallet. Insert the forklift or pallet jack forks between the supports on
the bottom of the pallet (see
Figure 6 for the IBC cabinet center of gravity measurements).
