SECTION 3
RECEIVING
UNCRATING
Before the edger was crated for shipment, it underwent a successful test
operation and was in proper working condition. Therefore, proper uncrating and
inspection upon receiving is of the utmost importance to assure that the edger
was received in exactly the same condition as it was when shipped from the
factory. The edger and all ancillary components are shipped in one large crate.
The crate with the edger weighs approximately 800 lbs (362kg). Use
adequate lifting devices to move the crate and avoid damage to the
machine.
INSPECTING THE CRATE
1) Crate damage could indicate mishandling during shipment and the edger could possibly
be damaged. Inspecting the crate for exterior damage is an important part of the
uncrating procedure.
2) Check all surfaces of the crate for gouges, tears or holes that could have been caused
by the tines of a fork-lift or other lifting device.
