Set-up the equipment
The machine is delivered on a wooden pallet packaged in recyclable cardboard. Check the packaging
immediately upon receipt and the equipment when unwrapping it for any visual external defects.
Keep all parts of the original packaging for a possible necessary return.
The machine shall be operated only by qualified personnel using suitable lifting equipment e.g. a
forklift truck to be lifted from the palette. Only move the fork in from the front or back to avoid
damaging the transport rollers (5.3)!
Do not operate the machine on the shipping pallet. Pay attention to the weight of the machine
specified in 11.1 not to exceed the permissible load of the floor.
Check the level of alignment and the stability of the machine with a spirit level. Adjust any unevenness
in the floor with the adjustable levelling feet

. Secure three of the four machine feet with the lock
nut.
Then fine- adjust the fourth machine foot. To do this, perform a test run with heavy containers while
adjusting the fourth levelling feet until the best possible alignment of the machine was found. Secure
the fourth levelling feet after the adjustment with the locknut.
When using a frame for height modification, its suitability must be checked regarding the vibration
behaviour and the load burst before commissioning from the operator. If in doubt, contact Collomix.
