Unpacking the M120 Router

The router is shipped in a cardboard box strapped securely to a wood pallet. Plastic straps secure the top and bottom in place. The router chassis is bolted to this pallet. Quick Start installation instructions and a cardboard accessory box are also included in the shipping container.

The shipping container measures 32.5 in. (82.6 cm) high, 35 in. (88.9 cm) wide, and 27 in. (68.6 cm) deep. The total weight of the container containing the router and accessories can range from 149 lb (63.5 kg) to 280 lb (127 kg).

Note: The router is maximally protected inside the shipping crate. Do not unpack it until you are ready to begin installation.

To unpack the router, (see Figure 1):

1. Move the shipping container to a staging area as close to the installation site as possible, where you have enough room to remove the components from the chassis. While the chassis is bolted to the pallet, you can use a forklift or pallet jack to move it.
2. Position the shipping container with the wooden pallet on the bottom and the corrugated cardboard facing up.
3. Remove the plastic straps that hold the top and bottom of the shipping container in place.
4. Remove the corrugated container cover and set it aside.
5. Remove the foam covering the top of the router.
6. Remove the accessory box and the Quick Start documentation.
7. Verify the parts received against the lists in Parts List for a Fully Configured Router and Accessory Box Parts List.
8. Remove the vapor corrosion inhibitor (VCI) packs attached to the pallet, being careful not to break the VCI packs open.
9. To remove the brackets holding the chassis on the pallet, use a 1/2-in. socket wrench and a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to remove the bolts and screws from the brackets.
10. Store the brackets and bolts inside the accessory box.
11. Save the corrugated shipping container cover, pallet, and packing materials in case you need to move or ship the router later. The packaging utilizes recyclable materials in the design and should be disposed of properly. Recycle packaging per your local, state or country specific laws and regulations.
12. To proceed with the installation, see Installing the M120 Router Using a Mechanical Liftor Installing the M120 Router Without Using a Mechanical Lift.
