2.2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The following paragraphs in this Section provide the instructions to unpack and install the Modulex Boiler.
2.2.1 Unpacking the Boiler
The Modulex Boiler is delivered assembled and protected by a plastic bag inside a rugged cardboard
box, which is fixed on a pallet (see Figure 2-1). The pallet allows the boiler to be handled by a forklift or
pallet jack. The boiler, with the packaging, can fit through a doorway of 32 in. (81 cm), whereas, without
packaging, it can fit through a doorway of 28 in. (71 cm). To unpack the Modulex, remove both straps
and then the cardboard box from above. Check to ensure that the product is intact.
