16 - STORAGE AND HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
The MAXISTAB stabilizers can be delivered to the installer on different sorts of packing, generally pallets
or wooden frame suitable for handling by forklifts or transpallets.
Each stabilizer is supplied along with:
-
CE Conformity Declaration
-
decal kit as described in Section 15.
On the receipt, always make sure that all of the above material has arrived, and that the stabilizer and its
more exposed parts (piping, valves, hookings, etc.) did not get damaged in transport.
In case of doubts about some parts efficiency and functionality, remove them and agree with Next
Hydraulics on their replacement.
Storage must be carried out in a covered and dry place, especially if you do not expect to use the product
for quite a long time.
Anyway bear in mind that, after long storage periods (12 months or more, depending also on the
environmental conditions), some anomalies could occur when putting into service for the first time, due
to the sticking of the seals of rods, valves cursors, etc. for long inactivity.
CAUTIONS TO OBSERVE
As a simple and not exhaustive example, we hereby report some basic precautions regarding the
installation operations:
1]
locate and delimit the area appointed for mounting, keeping it clear from the transit of other
machines, equipments, personnel
2]
avoid any welding operation, or free flames in narrow or not adequately aired places, or close to
inflammables
3]
be careful when entering (or slipping some parts of the body) in narrow spaces
4]
pay attention to dangers and risks coming from parts in motion, toxicants or corroding substances
(for instance: batteries acids) and fluids under pressure
5]
always use clothes conform to the accident preventing norms
6]
all the machines or some of their parts, or other equipments lifted from the ground, or which
might cause crushing or shearing, must be safely locked in their position
7]
operate in healthy environments, well aired, with clean and dry floors. Avoid using inflammable or
toxic detergents.
As far as handling is concerned, both when loading/unloading and when positioning the stabilizers for
their mounting and installation, the weight of each model without packing is listed in the following table:
