• For outdoor units, never stack the pipe cabinet or inlet
hood on the unit as it is being lifted.
• Do not attach the intake/exhaust hood or pipe cabinet
to the unit prior to lifting the unit. Doing so may
damage the equipment. Attach the hoods to the unit
only after all sections are in place.
• For outdoor air handlers, all shipping supports and
crating on the face of the sections must be removed to
permit proper fit-up and sealing of the surfaces.
Dispose of properly.
