Unpacking the 14-Slot Shelf

This chapter provides information about unpacking and installing the bundled 14-Slot Shelf.

CAUTION To minimize any possibility of physical damage to equipment, ensure that floorspace at the

installation site is neat and uncluttered. Ensure that a mechanical lift can be maneuvered in

the area to lift the Shelf from the shipping pallet.

HP shipping containers are designed to protect their contents under normal shipping conditions. After the

equipment arrives at the installation site, carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage. If the

container is damaged, document the damage with photographs and contact the transport carrier immediately.

NOTE The factory provides an installation warranty that is effective from the time the shipment is

received until Field Services completes the system installation. Please check all equipment and

accessories against the shipping manifest. If any parts or accessories are missing or defective

upon receipt, they will be replaced directly from the factory. To request replacement parts,

contact the HP representative.

Unpack the 14-Slot Shelf by using the following steps:

Step 1. Use a sharp knife or scissors to cut away any shrink-wrap packaging material that covers the

shipping package.

WARNING All poly strap shipping bands that secure the 14-Slot Shelf packaging are

stretched tight and are under tension. Wear eye protection to prevent

possible eye injury when cutting the strap, as the strap tension is released,

and strap ends recoil outward.

CAUTION Always cut any shrink wrapping material away from the packing carton; do not

physically pull and tear the fabric. Physically pulling the shrink wrapping from the

shipping carton without cutting it first may create an electrostatic charge that could

damage electronic equipment.

Step 2. Follow the warning above and cut the packaging poly strap banding on the 14-Slot Shelf.

Step 3. Remove the shipping carton and the interior top foam cushions, leaving the 14-Slot Shelf sitting in

the corrugated tray. See Figure 2-1 on page 19.
