- Continue to wheel the cart to the opposite edge of the pallet. Carefully tip the cart and machine forward until the machine is fully resting on the floor. (NOTE: This may require more than one person)
- Remove the safety straps and carefully pull the dolly out and away from the Bevi.

Method 2: Using a Ramp

- Use the side handles of the 2.0 to carefully wheel the unit up the ramp and onto the pallet top, using the machines built in casters.
Procedure: Repackaging the Standup 2.0 on the Pallet
Once the Standup 2.0 unit is placed on the pallet, please following the following repackaging instructions.
- Place the adhesive freeze indicator on the top back panel, centered between both sides (indicated by red arrow in the photo below).
- The freeze indicator is placed in the center of the back panel to avoid damage from the shipping straps.
- Obtain the 3x corrugated pads, which are shipped flat.
- Bend the pads in an accordion style along the perforations.
