the shipment is complete; then carefully inspect for
damage. Any evidence of rough handling may be
an indication of hidden damage.
Note - Shipping damages are not covered by the
warranty; the carrier assumes responsibility for
safe delivery. If you note damage or missing items,
IMMEDIATELY file a claim with the carrier. At the
same time, notify DSI/Dynamatic®. If assistance is
needed to settle a claim, contact the factory. To
expedite this service, refer to your equipment by
purchase order, Model, Pro and Serial Numbers.
The following check list is included-to assist with
the receiving inspection.
1. Inspect the packaging, covering and
skid for signs of mistreatment.
2. Inspect the housing to make sure there is no
damage.
3. Manually rotate shaft to be sure it is free from
binding and noise.
4. Check for moisture and foreign material in
the unit, especially on electrical windings,
around the shaft and bearing caps and in
accessories.
Handling
Only skilled personnel, following standard
safety practices, should handle this
equipment. Avoid jarring or pounding on shaft.
Do not attempt lifting by the shaft. Handling is
best accomplished with a fork lift or crane.
When using a fork lift, be sure the unit is well
supported, with the forks adequately spread and
centered under the skid.
The units can also be lifted by a crane. To avoid
damage, attach the crane cables to all eye bolts
provided on the unit.
Units mounted on a common base with other
equipment may be lifted with a suitable sling under
the base or by attaching cables to eye bolts
designed and installed into the base for lifting the
complete assembly. Refer to the certified drawings.
Do not use the eye bolts on the unit if the unit is
attached to another piece of machinery or gear box,
unless the drawings show they were designed for
lifting the assembly. When two or more cables are
used, maintain a near-vertical pull on the eye bolts.
If near-vertical pull is not possible, use a spreader
bar to take side pull off of the eye bolts.
Storage
Whenever this unit is to be set aside in storage, a
clean, dry area must be provided, and it should be
kept in its original crate. If kept in an air tight
material such as polyethylene, silica-gel or some
other moisture absorbent should be used to
prevent rust. Additional grease is not required until
ready for operation. Shaft should be rotated
occasionally to redistribute bearing grease and to
prevent bearings from becoming brinelled.
