Kongsberg EM 712 Maintenance Manual
2 Place the box on a stable work bench or on the floor with the top of the box facing
upwards.
3 In the absence of other instructions, always open the top of the carton first.
The contents of the box will normally have been lowered into the carton from
above, so this will usually be the easiest route to follow. Be careful when you open
the box, and make sure that the contents are not damaged. Do not use a knife to
open cardboard boxes.
4 If the box has been closed using staples, remove the staples from the carton as
you open it.
This will reduce the possibilities of scratch injury to yourself and damage to the
contents.
5 If a wooden box has been closed using screws, always remove them using a
screwdriver.
Do not attempt to force the lid open with a crowbar or similar tool.
6 Once the carton is open, carefully remove all loose packing and insulation material.
7 Check for user manuals and other documents that may have been added to the
carton during packing.
8 Check also for special tools, door keys etc.
