Recycling of packaging material
Once the machine has arrived on site, the packaging material will need to be removed.
• Any wood packaging can be burned
• For some countries, the packaging used for shipping by sea is made of impregnated wood that must be
recycled according to local regulations
• Plastic material around the machine can be recycled
• Any anti-corrosive agent covering the machine surface can be removed using a petrol based detergent and
a cleaning rag. The rag must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
Dismantling of the machine
Dismantling the machine is a basic procedure as it is assembled with bolts. However, due to the weight, it
requires an operator trained in handling heavy components to prevent dangerous situations.
