SHIPPING SKID

Each merchandiser is shipped on a skid to
protect the merchandiser's base, and to make
positioning the case easier.
Do not remove the shipping skid until the
merchandiser is near its final location. The skid
provides protection for both the merchandiser
and the floor.
Remove the skid by raising one end of the
merchandiser approximately 6 inches. Block the
merchandiser securely, and remove the two skid
bolts from the raised end. Replace the bolts with
(provided) leg levelers. Repeat this procedure at
opposing end. Once the leg levelers are secured
in place, the merchandiser may be slid off the
skid and placed in its final location.
DO NOT TILT MERCHANDISER ON ITS
SIDE OR END WHEN REMOVING SKID.
Once the skid is removed, the merchandiser
must be lifted —NOT PUSHED— to reposition.
Check floor where merchandisers are to be set
to see if it is a level area. Determine the highest
part of the floor.
Do NOT remove shipping crate until the
merchandiser is positioned
such
