Transport
•
Before lifting or shipping the unit, make sure that all mountings are fixed and
secured.
•
Only use lifting gear with sufficient load-bearing capacity.
•
Never use damaged lifting gear.
•
Ropes/chains must not be knotted and/or be exposed to sharp edges.
•
Only use ropes/chains of the same length.
•
Only use the designated lifting gear (provided on site).
•
A girder with suitable load-bearing capacity must be used to ensure the stability of
the lifted load and to avoid the lifting gear coming in contact with the unit.
•
Move the unit carefully without fast irregular movements.
•
Do not move the unit in case of strong wind conditions.
•
Always set the unit down gently, without bumping it.
•
If required, engage a specialist company to ship the unit.
Notice!
Missing parts or claims of shipping damage can only be reported to the transport
insurance if the damage has been confirmed by the delivering carrier.
Notice!
We recommend keeping the equipment in the original packaging for protection and
ease of handling during shipping and storage.
Remove the original packaging only just before installation.
Up to commissioning, protect the unit from building dust, dirt and damage!
Danger due to high loads!
Inappropriate handling with high loads can lead to death or serious injuries.
For unit weight, refer to the order-related documentation and the unit identification
plate.
Danger due to overhead loads!
Never stand beneath suspended loads, since there is always a risk that the lifting
gear, tackle, ropes or slings are faulty or damaged. Failure to follow safety precau-
tions could result in death or serious injury.
•
Wear safety clothing and protective helmet.
•
Never stand under suspended loads!
