6. Transport and storage
6.1 Transport
The unit should be transported horizontally as there is always a certain amount of oil inside the filter unit (in the filter as well as in
the pump), which will leak out during other transport and lead to soiling.
Observe the notes in Chapter 2 "Safety instructions".
Ensure that the unit is in a safe position (tipping hazard).
To prevent the leakage of residual oil, seal hoses at the open connections before transport.
During transport, secure the suction hose and the pressure hose in the brackets provided for this purpose in order to avoid possible
leakage of residual oil.
Do not use stair steps or elevated steps.
6.2 Storage
The UMPC 045 filter unit should be stored in a confined space to protect it from humidity and condensation.
Fig. 7: Transport rack
The unit is mounted on a transport rack with two wheels.
This hand truck enables the unit to be transported without difficulty (weight: 97 kg) even to inaccessible / narrow areas.
For transport, the unit can be rolled over the wheels by pushing the handle (see arrow) and transported to the destination.
