Temporary Installation Using Packing Materials; Re-Packing - Pioneer PDP-501MX Technical Manual

2) Unpacking procedures
1 Remove the packing bands.
2 Slowly lift and remove the upper carton ["top portion of the packaging"].
3 Lift and remove the reinforcement packaging. (Upper protective pad C is held in place by adhesive tape)
4 Remove the L and R upper cartons.
5 Remove the side, front, and rear cartons.
(At this stage, the product is supported by packing materials)
6 Remove the operating manual and accessories, which are secured to the lower carton by adhesive tape.
7 Remove the unit. (This should be performed by more than two persons)
3) Transportation of the unpacked unit
If it needs to be moved, the unit should be lifted by more than two persons.
• Avoid moving the unit by dragging it on the floor.
• Move the unit slowly, taking care to prevent scraping or striking the delicate front protective panel.
• Remove the protective film only after all work and preparations for the installation site, including clean-up
following unpacking, are complete.

3.3.3 Temporary installation using packing materials

The lower carton and pads may be used as a temporary stand for the unit.
Connections to and from the unit can be made after the side, rear, and front cartons are removed. At this point, the
power switch and remote control may also be operated, but this installation should be regarded as temporary.
Always secure the unit to the mounting hardware after pre-installation wiring and adjustments are complete. Never
attempt to move the unit while supported only by cartons.

3.3.4 Re-packing

If the unit needs to be re-packed, observe the following guidelines:
• Pack by performing the steps described in 3.3.2 Unpacking in reverse order. The mirro mat must be positioned
so that the shiny film surface faces outward and its soft surface faces inward (toward the unit).
• Restore all accessories to their original locations. Secure with adhesive tape to prevent damage during trans-
portation.
• Check that no carton spacer is dislodged. Rearrange dislodged carton spacers so they are securely positioned
between the unit and the lower pads, and secure with adhesive tape. This guards against instability during
packaging or transportation.
