a. Unloading the Equipment.

(1) The crated panels and components of the prefabricated refrigerators may be shipped either by tractor-trailer

or rail. The operator and organizational maintenance personnel will remove all tie-down cables, strapping,

blocking, and the like, which secure the crated or skid-mounted components to the bed of the carrier.

Remove all tie-downs and blocking (fig. 4-4).

(2) Use a suitable lifting device of sufficient capacity, and remove the crated or skid-mounted components from

the bed of the carrier.

(3) Remove banding, crating, and blocking, being extremely careful not to damage the panels. If skidmounted,

cut the strapping and remove cushioning and spacers. Unpack separately packed component from the

container. Remove tape from drains, switches, and power receptacles.
