3.1
Unpacking the machine
Transport the drilling machine in its packing crate near its final installation location with a lift
truck before unpacking it. If the packaging shows signs of possible transport damage, take the
necessary precautions not to damage the machine when unpacking it. If any damage is discov-
ered, the carrier and/or shipper must be notified immediately to be able to initiate the neces-
sary steps for a claim.
Inspect the machine completely and carefully, making sure that all materials, such as shipping
documents, manuals and accessories supplied with the machine have been received.
3.2
Transport
The machine can be transported with forklifts or lift trucks. The commonly accepted and local
regulations regarding machine transport apply.
WARNING!
Severe or fatal injuries may occur if parts of the machine tumble or fall down from the
forklift truck or from the transport vehicle. Follow the instructions and information on
the transport box. Note the total weight of the drilling machine. Use only transport and
load suspension devices that can support the total weight of the drilling machine.
WARNING!
The use of unstable lifting and load suspension equipment that might break under load
can cause severe injuries or even death. Check that the lifting and load suspension gear
has sufficient load-bearing capacity and that it is in perfect condition. Fasten the loads
properly. Never walk under suspended loads!
