17. SHIPPING SKID REMOVAL
WARNING: WHILE REMOVING THE BOLTS FROM THE SKIDS, BE SURE TO HAVE
A PERSON HOLD AND STABILIZE THE SAFE TO KEEP IT FROM TIPPING, CAUSING
INJURY, AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE SAFE AND SURROUNDING STRUCTURES.
WARNING: BEFORE REMOVING THE SHIPPING SKIDS, MAKE SURE THE DOOR
IS CLOSED AND LOCKED. THE DOOR OF YOUR SAFE IS HEAVY AND PRESENTS
A SAFETY HAZARD UNTIL THE SAFE IS BOLTED DOWN OR SECURED PROPERLY.
Upon receiving your safe, you may find it attached to metal shipping skids. The
skids are secured from the underside of the safe by four bolts. Remove bolts
from the right side using a wrench or 11/16” (17mm) socket.
With a person stabilizing the safe, carefully tilt the safe to the left and pull the
shipping skid on the right side away from the bottom of the safe.
With the shipping skid removed from one side of the safe, carefully lower the
safe to the floor.
Follow the same procedure to remove the remaining shipping skid.
16. KEEPING YOUR SAFE DRY
We recommend placing a moisture/protective barrier between your safe and
concrete floor to prevent any moisture, mildew and rust damage the safe. Installing
your safe in a place with climate control (heat in the winter and cooling in the summer)
is highly recommended. In areas of high humidity or frequent temperature fluctuations
(garages) it is recommend to take appropriate precautions to ward against moisture
damage. We strongly encourage the use of an internal dehumidifier and/or desiccants
to protect your contents from rust or mildew. Internal dehumidifiers should not be
in direct contact with the side or back walls.
