Transport, Handling and Storage
2.1.
Reception
When the genset is delivered make sure that the packing has not been damaged during transport
and that it has not been tampered with or that components inside the packing have been removed
(see information marked on covers, bases and cartons).
Place the packed genset as close as possible to the place of installation and remove the packing
material, checking that the goods supplied correspond to the order specifications.
If you notice damage or missing parts, inform Solé DieselS.A. after-sales departments and the
carrier immediately and forward photographic evidence of the damage.
After inspecting the goods if you notice damage, write a reservation on the delivery note. Have the
carrier countersign the note and advise Solé DieselS.A., preferably by mail ([email protected]).
2.2.
Transporting and Handling the Packed Genset
When lifting and transporting the genset use EXCLUSIVELY a forklift or bridge crane of appropriate
load capacity, with chains equipped with safety hooks suitable for lifting the load.
The use of any other system automatically invalidates the insurance guarantee against possible
damage to the genset.
To unpack the genset, you must follow these steps:
1.
Remove the cardboard crate.
2.
Lift the genset using a forklift and
suitable chains, which hook to the
genset eyebolts.
3.
Transfer the genset to the intended
position of installation.
4.
Remove the wooden base.
5.
Begin installation operations.
