DISMANTLING
7.11.1. Although CO
2
is not toxic, it is an asphyxiant and is advisable to unzip the Cocoon
TM
Lite
and wait until most of the CO
2
has dispersed.
7.11.2. Although the Cocoon
TM
Lite may be progressively filled over several days as the
commodity is harvested and provided, they have the same moisture content, it is not
recommended to top-up a Cocoon
TM
Lite that is still partially filled from a previous harvest,
with commodity brought in from the new harvest. This is because when the new commodity
is tapped from top, the old commodity from the previous harvest is left at the bottom.
7.11.3. This commodity will only be unloaded at the end of storage:
a. Unfastening the tensions straps.
b. Using a coin, insert and twist the zipper (sharp objects should not be used for
opening the zipper).
c. Gently pull the two sections apart, taking the top sections completely off.
d. Remove the sacks of stored commodities (again, a stairway of sacks might make
the job easier.)
Get a humidity indicator from the pack.
Put the humidity indicator inside the
transparent plug using the clip
Attached the transparent plug to the
threaded flange tightly.
Hide the humidity indicator with the
zipper cover.
