Installation (Applicable to all Models)

2.4.1 Handling With Skid

• Always keep the unit upright, indoors and protected from damage.
• If possible, transport the unit using a fork lift; otherwise, use a crane with belts or cables, avoid-

ing pressing on the top edges of the packaging.

• If using a fork lift, make sure the forks, if adjustable, are spread to the widest allowable distance

to still fit under the skid.

NOTICE

Risk of overhead interference. Can cause unit and/or structure damage. Refer to the

installation plans prior to moving the unit to verify clearances.
While on the skid, the unit is too tall to fit through a standard height doorway (83 inches or

2108 mm tall). Any attempt to move the unit, while on the skid, through a standard doorway

will cause damage to the unit.

2.4.2 Removal of Skid

• Remove the plywood skirting that keeps the skid and unit in place.
• Raise the Challenger 3000 off the skid. Liebert recommends using a fork lift (see Figure 1)

or similar machine to ensure that the unit is lifted properly.

• Once the unit is raised, the skid can be removed.
