Unpacking

IMPORTANT NOTE!!
If there is evidence of damage to the palletized unit, or any of the accompanying items, immediately and
thoroughly inspect the unit and all components. Notify the freight company of all damages. Generally, it is the
responsibility of the Customer to file and negotiate freight damage claims with freight carriers.
Unit is shipped on a wooden pallet, secured by high-tensile plastic strapping and wrapped in machine-applied
stretch wrap. In most cases a wooden framework is built around the unit for added protection. Unpack unit as
follows:
1. Position pallet in an area that provides adequate space for unpacking.
2. Remove the plastic stretch wrap, strapping and other packaging materials as necessary.
3. Carefully remove the hood stand components (sides, back panels, trim pieces & appliance channels) from the
shipping skid using suitable equipment and/or sufficient manpower and safe work practices. Stage all
components for installation or assembly.
4. Generally, the two (2) stainless baffle filters are packed on top of the hood. If so, secure them and place for
safekeeping.
5. Carefully remove any wooden supports and/or framework that might be attached.
6. Locate and secure the envelope containing Warranty Card and any other documentation or hardware provided
for installation.
7. It is preferable to leave the hood unit on the pallet so that handling equipment can be used to move it to the
desired permanent location after the stand is assembled and in place.
•
Unit is very heavy and bulky! Use suitable equipment and/or sufficient manpower to lift and move the Hood
from the shipping skid. See Section 1.04.4, Weights.
