HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
GENERAL
•
Check packing dimensions and weight of crates/cartons, use a fork lift truck or a suitable tonnage crane
for its lifting. The use of non suitable lifting equipment may injure people and damage the oven.
•
The lifting equipment capacity, as well as being proportional to the oven and the weight of its parts, must
be chosen considering the maximum overhang allowed.
•
Use lifting slings only if the label with the manufacturer’s data is affixed to them and the lifting load
capacity is clearly visible.
•
Inspect the slings before all lifting: do not use if damaged, cut or worn since breakage of the slings could
cause damage to the oven and may injure people.
•
Do not twist or knot the slings; follow the instructions for use given by the supplier.
•
The same instructions must be obeyed when chains are used.
