4 - Factory testing, shipping, delivery and installation
4.1 - Factory testing
The machine you have purchased has been tested at our plants to verify its correct
operation and proper adjustment. The tests were conducted using materials similar
to those processed by the user.
4.2 - Delivery and handling
All shipped material is carefully checked prior to being handed over to the shipping
agent. Unless otherwise agreed with the customer, the machine is wrapped in
nylon and screwed onto the pallet. It is then covered with cardboard, which is
strapped to the pallet. When you receive the machine, check the condition of its
packaging. If you notice any damage to the packaging, sign the delivery note with
the following note: “Goods accepted with reservation...” and the reason.
If you notice any damage to the components of the machine after opening the
package, report it to the shipping agent within three days from the date shown on
the documents.
4.3 - Installation
CAUTION!
The installation area must be level and solid, and the area supporting
the machine must ensure that it is stable and safe. Moreover, the machine must be
placed where there is ample space around it, taking into account the dimensions
required for supporting it. This will facilitate manoeuvring during work phases and
ensure easy access for subsequent maintenance operations.
Provide adequate lighting around the tenderiser to ensure proper visibility for the
operator using it.
4.3.1 - Installation
Handle the package with a lift truck or similar equipment, since the machine is
delivered in a cardboard carton mounted to a pallet.
Remove the two straps fastening the cardboard box to the pallet.
Remove the cardboard.
