Section 4: PREPARATION FOR OPERATION
General
When unloading and unpacking the power unit and equipment, use extreme care.
For your protection, make a thorough inspection of the unit immediately upon delivery. In case of any damage
or shortage, notify the transit agent at once and have the delivering carrier make a notation on the freight bill.
Rigging of Vibrator
A steel wire rope sling must be connected to the lifting pin of the vibration suppressor. The required strength
of this sling depends on the capacity of the crane and the work to be carried out. A safety factor of five is
recommended. Several turns of a smaller diameter cable will usually last longer than one turn of a larger
diameter cable. Consult a rigging expert or rigging handbook for guidance. Be aware of protocols, regulations,
and guidelines for rigging.
Wire rope failure or cable clamp slippage may result in injury or death.
Check cables and cable clamps daily.
