PreparetheUnpackingLocation

You will need 10 feet of access at the front and back of the crate to safely unpack the

library. Once the library is out of the crate, you will need to move the library to a work

space where you have access to all four sides. Make sure that you have this area

prepared before you remove the library from the crate.

1. Use the scissors to cut away the plastic wrap surrounding the library and its crate.

2. Check Tip n Tell and Shockwatch®to ensure that the crate has not been improperly

handled, before proceeding (Figure 1).

The Tip n Tell is located on the side of the library; the Shockwatch is located on the

side of the library near the bottom.

Caution: Do not unpack the library if Tip N Tell or Shockwatch has been

tripped. Contact both the shipping company and Spectra Logic.
