6 Transport and assembly
6.1 Packaging
A decisive factor in the choice of packaging is the means of transport. Usually the
machine and all the accessories are delivered in a cardboard box on a pallet or wooden
case upon request.
6.2 Sensitivity
Special care must be taken when transporting the machine in order to prevent damage
from impact or improper loading and unloading.
All movable parts must be fixed in place.
Transport insurance should be provided for according to the type and duration of
transport. Condensation due to large temperature fluctuations and sharp jolts during
shipment should be avoided.
Please handle the machine with care.
6.3 Intermediate storage
If the machine is not used immediately upon delivery, the machine must be stored in a
safe place and properly covered.
6.4 Scope of delivery
The contents (number of transport crates, pallets, packages) and their condition should
be checked immediately upon receipt. Any damage and/or missing parts should be
noted right away on the bill of lading and reported to
Georg Fischer Omicron S.r.l.
without delay.
