5.3.7
Lifting and transportation
To safely lift and transport the machine, the following requirements must be met:
● Personnel operating cranes and fork-lift trucks must be appropriately qualified.
● If the machine is packed, depending on the weight, size and on-site conditions, lift crates
and transport frames using a fork-lift truck or a crane with slings. Use a crane or fork-lift truck
suitable for the load.
● When lifting the machine, use only approved and undamaged sling guides and spreaders
of sufficient rated capacity. Check the lifting equipment prior to its use. The weight of the
machine is shown on the rating plate.
● When lifting the machine, refer to the information on the lifting plate.
– Comply with the specified spreading angles.
– Do not exceed the maximum lifting acceleration and lifting speed specified on the lifting
plate. Lift the machine without jerking it.
Acceleration a ≤ 0.4 g (≈ 4 m/s
2
)
Velocity v ≤ 20 m/min
WARNING
Transport for a different type of construction
If you do not transport or lift the machine in a position appropriate for its construction, the
machine can tip, slip into the lifting equipment or fall down. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● Use only the load carrying device on the stator frame for lifting.
● Use the load carrying device appropriate for the machine position.
● Only use suitable rope guiding or spreading devices.
WARNING
Center of gravity not centered
If the center of gravity of a load is not located centrally between the attachment points, the
machine can tip over or slip out of the lifting equipment and fall when it is being transported or
lifted. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● Comply with the handling instructions on the machine when transporting it.
● Be aware of the possibility of different loads on the sling ropes or lifting straps and the
carrying capacity of the lifting equipment.
● Always take account of the center of gravity when transporting or lifting the machine. If the
center of gravity is not located centrally between the attachment points, then position the
hoisting hook above the center of gravity.
