EVERY EFFORT HAS BEEN MADE TO PACKAGE THIS UNIT FOR TRANSPORT AND TO
ENSURE ITS GOOD CONDITION ON ARRIVAL AT ITS DESTINATION.
BEFORE COMMISSIONING IT IS NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE FURNACE CORE
TRANSIT CLAMP. TO AVOID DAMAGE PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS:
1.
Slacken the central nut using the required tube spanner; the insertion of a
screwdriver through the tube spanner will prevent the central stud turning.
2.
Remove the 3 screws securing the transit clamp to the top of the unit. Slacken each
screw equally by degrees and then completely remove the screws.
3.
Gently lift the transit clamp vertically; a central tube which has secured the furnace
core will then slide out. The 3 screws should then be replaced in the top of the unit
4.
Normal commissioning procedure may now be followed.
5.
Keep the transit clamp and use it if the furnace is ever transported.
