All EWWD/H/S - J machines are built in compliance with the main European Directives (Machinery Directive, Low Voltage
Directive, Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive, PED Pressure Equipment Directive); be sure to receive, together with
the documentation, also the Declaration of Conformity (DoC) of the product to the directives.
Before installation and commissioning of the machinery, the people involved in this activity must have acquired the
information necessary to perform these tasks, applying all the information gathered in this manual. In particular:
-
the unit must be firmly anchored to the ground when it must not be moved;
-
the unit can only be lifted using the lifting points marked in yellow fixed to its base;
-
always protect operating personnel with personal protective equipment appropriate to the activities to be
performed. The individual devices commonly used are: helmet, glasses, gloves, headphones, safety shoes.
Further personal and collective protection devices must be adopted after having carried out an adequate analysis
of the specific risks in the relevant area, according to the activities to be carried out.

order to prevent surface rust.
Consult the dimensional drawing for the hydraulic and electrical connection of the units.
The overall dimensions of the machine, as well as the weights described in this manual, are purely
indicative.
The contractual dimensional drawing and the related electrical scheme are delivered to the
customer when ordering.
The equipment, ropes, lifting accessories and handling procedures must comply with local regulations and current
regulations.
Use only lifting hooks with locking device. The hooks must be securely fixed before handling.
The lifting ropes, hooks and spacing bars must be strong enough to support the unit safely. Please check the unit weight
