Unpacking the autoloader
Before taking the autoloader out of its packaging, inspect the carton for damage
that might have occurred during shipment. If you received the autoloader on a
pallet, inspect the pallet for damage. Report any damage to the shipper
immediately. When you unpack the autoloader, place the unit as close to the
installation location as possible.
To prepare the autoloader for installation, remove the internal packaging from the
autoloader and install the pull-out information tabs.
