mounting and maintenance personnel have read and
understood this IMO manual.
Only qualified personal may perform the installation work.
Metso assumes no liability for structural modifications car-

Visual inspection
Before leaving Metso, the valve has been inspected for
tightness and functionality by Metso Quality Control and
set for operation in accordance with the order-related spec-
ifications.
Before installation,
please check the valve for possible
transport damage. If delivery parts are damaged, please
contact Metso service personnel before any further actions.
Before installation,
please check the valve for functionality.
Proceed as follows:
□
Lifting ropes are necessary, depending on the size and
weight of the valve.
Fasten the lifting ropes once around the valve body
twice on the actuator (see Figure 1) for the horizontal
transport position.
For valve sizes with a weight of more than 1t, the valve
and actuator are equipped with lifting lugs to fix the
lifting ropes.
If you fix the ropes on the actuator, the shaft may be
damaged.

Fasten the lifting ropes on the actuator only for a verti-
cal transport position. (see Figure 2)
