XLS Library Site Planning Guide 2-1
2 Unloading and Moving the
Library
Before scheduling delivery of the library, carefully consider the following:
• How the library—including the XLS, a Media Expansion Module (MEM), or an
expansion pod—will be unloaded from the truck. See
Section 2.1 .
•
How the equipment will be moved within the facility to its final location. See
Section 2.2 .
2.1 Unloading the Library
The XLS is shipped on pallets and delivered by truck. Before scheduling delivery of the
library, consider which of these situations apply:
• Loading dock available: If a loading dock is available, ensure that it has
uniform dimensions and that it is of the appropriate size to accommodate the
transportation company’s truck.
• Loading dock not available: If no loading dock is available, you may need to
specify that the truck be equipped with a lift gate or ramp to unload the
equipment to ground level, where it can be removed from the pallet and moved on
its casters.
•
Difficult entry to building: If the access to the building is especially difficult,
you may need to hire a rigging company with material handling equipment to
unload the equipment and move it into the facility.
2.2 Moving the Library
Both the library unit and the MEM are equipped with casters so they can be rolled on
smooth, interior floors. Avoid rolling the equipment over rough surfaces or cracks. Use
light plywood or a similar material to cover uneven surfaces.
In addition, since the equipment is too heavy to be lifted manually, consider constructing
temporary ramps or bridges over steps, large cracks, or expansion joints that are too wide
for the casters.
If a library or MEM is to be moved to a different location, it must be repacked on the
pallet, using the packaging material that it was originally shiped with to avoid damage to
