2.4 Checks upon arrival and unpacking
2.4.1 Check upon arrival
The machine and the package must be inspected immediately upon arrival. Any transport
damage must be photographed and reported immediately, i.e. within less than one (1) week after
arrival, if the transport insurance is to be claimed. It is, therefore, important that evidence of
careless handling is checked and reported immediately to the transport company and the
supplier. Use checklists in
Appendix COMMISSIONING REPORT.
A machine, which is not to be installed immediately upon arrival, must not be left without
supervision or without protective precautions. For more details, see
2.4.2 Check upon unpacking
Place the machine so that it does not hinder the handling of any other goods and on a flat,
vibration-free surface.
After the package has been removed, check that the machine is not damaged and that all
accessories are included. Tick off the accessories on the packing list which is enclosed. If there
is any suspected damage or if accessories are missing, take photographs thereof and report this
immediately to the supplier. Use checklists in
Appendix COMMISSIONING REPORT.
For correct recycling and disposal of the packaging material, see

washers are included in the delivery.
Mechanical assembly should be done only by experienced personnel. Electrically active parts
