I sympathise with your difficulties getting the machine out of the box it comes in. Many years ago, I had to review a dozen or so computer monitors for Mac User magazine. These were old-fashioned, bulky CRT devices that weighed more than an individual could comfortably lift.
I struggled to unbox these, but one of them came with invaluable instructions printed on the box itself: open the top, and on a soft, flat surface like a carpeted floor, carefully rotate the box onto its side, then rotate again so the box is now upside-down. It is now child's play to lift the box off and rotate the device back until it is upright. I haven't lifted anything heavy out of its box since.
