Unpacking the Cabinet
The cabinet-mounted system is enclosed in a cardboard shipping container, which is
secured to a shipping pallet by exterior tie-down straps. (Inside the cardboard, interior
straps secure the cabinet to the pallet.) A ramp for rolling the cabinet off the pallet is
attached to the front of the shipping container, along with two transition plates, which
you use to secure the ramp to the pallet. A lever bar is secured to the ramp, for use in
tipping the cabinet to remove it from the pallet. Labels on the cardboard cap indicate
the front and rear of the cabinet.
