4.2 Transportation, receipt and handling of shipments
WARNING
Danger of death and damage to property!
Danger of death and damage to property due to tipping or falling load.
► Only transport the crate when closed.
► Do not remove the securing material used in the crate during transport.
► If the product is delivered on a pallet, secure it sufficiently.
► Only trained and authorized persons may select the sling gear and se-
cure the load.
► Do not walk under the hanging load.
► Use means of transport and lifting gear with a sufficient carrying capacity
in accordance with the weight stated on the delivery slip.
In addition to oscillation stress, jolts must also be expected during trans-
portation. In order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping,
knocking over and colliding with the product.
If a crate tips over, falls from a certain height (e.g. when slings tear) or is
subject to an unbroken fall, damage must be expected regardless of the
weight.
Every delivered shipment must be checked for the following by the recipient
before acceptance (acknowledgment of receipt):
▪ Completeness based on the delivery slip
▪ External damage of any type
The checks must take place after unloading when the crate or transport con-
tainer can be accessed from all sides.
