Safety Information
While Morse Manufacturing Co. drum handling equipment is
engineered for safety and efficiency, a high degree of respon
-
sibility must be placed upon the machine operator to follow safe
practices, based primarily on common sense, upon which true
safety depends.
Failure to follow the safety precautions in this manual can result
in personal injury or property damage. Observe the same pre-
cautions as with similar machinery where carelessness in oper-
ating or maintenance is hazardous to personnel. Carefully read
the safety precautions below and throughout this manual.
Receiving Procedures
Every Morse drum handler is inspected prior to shipping. How-
ever, damage may be incurred during transit.
• Check for visible damage. If you choose to accept damaged
freight, always sign noting the damage on the
BILL OF LAD-
ING
.
• Document the damage and have the truck driver sign. We
recommend keeping a digital camera at your receiving dock
for this purpose.
• Open packages expeditiously to check the condition of the
goods. There is only a 24 hour window to notify the carrier of
any concealed damage.
•
IMMEDIATELY REPORT ALL DAMAGE TO THE SHIPPING
COMPANY!
Then you may contact Morse for assistance with
your freight claim.
• Morse Manufacturing will not be held responsible for any dam
-
aged freight that is not signed for as damaged.
Delivery to non-business addresses without a loading dock
result in additional freight charges. Residential delivery fees,
inside delivery fees, re-delivery charges, and lift gate services
will be added by the truck line, and are non-negotiable.
Limited 2 Year Warranty
Morse drum handling equipment is guaranteed against defects
in workmanship or materials for
TWO YEARS
when used
properly within its rated capacity. Warranty does not cover
wear from normal use or damage from accident or abuse.
Motors and other purchased parts carry the warranties of their
manufacturers.
For warranty claims, contact your Morse Dealer to obtain a re-
turn authorization number, and for return freight advice. Return
freight must be prepaid.
