Unpacking: FineLine 170HD / 300HD
The 5100 with the FineLine HD systems will be professionally installed at a customers location. Due to
the weight of the power supplies, , there are requiremnts that need to be met when handling the
equipment. For complete instructions, see the FineLine Operators Manual.
The FineLine 170HD and Fineline 300HD should be lifted by a forklift, pallet jack or crane. In order to prevent

and national laws and regulations. The personnel
involved in the move must be properly trained and
qualified to use such equipment.

ensure even weight distribution.
