4.5 Loading, transportation and unloading
The procedure below describes the main recommendations for loading, transporting and unloading the
machine.
STEPS DESCRIPTION
Safety checks
•
Loading and unloading must be carried out only by specialized and authorized
personnel.
•
Mark off the loading and unloading area and warn exposed persons of the
operations underway.
Loading
•
The machine is shipped in more than one piece, each of which is anchored
using wood beams, straps or similar means, to store and fasten the load.
•
The load is always protected against inclement weather conditions using PVC
sheets.
Transportation
•
Particular care must be taken when dealing with over-sized loads.
•
The maximum height permitted for loads hauled by road is 4 meters,
considering the height of the vehicle and the load together. Some loads are
hauled on special trucks with a lowered platform in order to stay within the 4
meter height limit.
•
Take special care of over-sized machines shipped in OPEN TOP type
containers. In these cases, Paolino Bacci S.r.l . will transport the load up to the
ship. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the customer must organize and provide
for road haulage from the port of destination to the installation site, choosing
means of transport suited to the load to be transported.
Checks on
arrival
•
Inspect the load visually and make sure that the PVC sheets are whole and not
cut or torn.
•
After having removed the PVC sheets, make sure that the load has not moved;
the straps must be in place and pulled taut and the wood slats must be well
anchored to the load.
•
If the machine has been damaged, immediately inform the carrier and Paolino
Bacci S.r.l technical personnel.
Unloading
•
Always upload the smallest and most easily reached items first.
•
Unload one load unit at a time.
•
Find the hook up points of the load units and always fasten the hoisting
equipment before removing the straps and slats that block the load.
•
Start hoisting gradually, moving the load without bumping against the transport
vehicle.
