13. HANDLING AND TRANSPORTATION
A metal pallet is used for transport and storage with packing at the side and a wooden cover.
The pump is fixed on a metal pallet, which allows safe handling using a transpallet or forklift truck. The metal pallet has been
designed so that it can be installed in the installation, being equipped with 4 (four) holes of Ø 14 mm suitable for fixing to the
floor.
The machine components can withstand temperatures, during storage, from -20 to + 50 °C (-4°F - 122°F); it is therefore
necessary, in order to avoid damages, for the machine to be started up when the machine has reached a minimum temperature
of +5 °C (+41°F).
14. PRECAUTIONS
It is necessary to carefully read the warnings and risks associated with using a lubricant pump. The operator must understand
how it works and must clearly understand the dangers by studying the user manual.
15. CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR USE
The check on compliance with the essential safety requirements and with the stipulations indicated in the machine directives are
to be carried out by means of compiling the checklists already made available and contained in the
technical file.
Three types of lists were used:
list of dangers (section from EN 414 relating to EN 292)
Application of the essential safety requirements (Machine Dir. – 06/42)
electrical safety stipulations (EN 60204-1)
See below a list of dangers which have not been completely eliminated, but are considered acceptable:
During assembly/maintenance it is possible that there may be an oil splash (consequently this operation must be carried out
using appropriate individual protective devices);
contact with oil -> see instructions for using appropriate individual protective devices DPI;
Use of an inappropriate lubricant -> fluid characteristics indicated both on the pump and in the manual (
if in doubt consult
our Technical Office);
protection against direct and indirect contact must be provided by the user;
whenever the cover is opened for an intervention resealing the catch is essential;
The pump’s working logic requires it to operate at all times, so it is necessary to pay attention to the electric connection. If
there is no current the customer’s machine can only be restarted following a reset while the lubrication pump can restart
automatically.
