The Eaton xStorage 400 is heavy (see Table 1 ). If unpacking and unloading instructions are not closely followed,
the cabinet may tip and cause serious injury.
• Do not tilt the cabinet more than 10° from vertical.
• Lift the cabinet with a forklift or a crane.
• Crane may be used to locate unit onto the concrete pad ONLY if a sling system is implemented on
forklift points.
To prevent damage to the xStorage 400 base when lifting or moving the cabinet:
• Verify that the forklift forks are in a horizontal position before inserting them into the forklift slots.
• DO NOT angle fork tips upward.
• Insert the forks all the way through the base. DO NOT insert forks partially into the base to move the
cabinet.
• Forks may be partially inserted into the front or rear forklift slots for minor positioning if the forks are kept
in a horizontal position with no upward angling.
To move the xStorage 400 and mechanically install on the concrete pad:
1. Inspect the concrete pad location, taking note of the power conduit location and the anchor points.
