General Notes
Before the machine used for the first time, STI authorized dealers offer a course to familiarise
maintenance and operating personnel with all elements of the machine. We are not liable for
damage caused by incorrect use of the machine by personnel not trained by STI.
4.2 Transportation
In order to transport the machine from a vehicle to the working area, you need to tilt the
machine down. In order to do so, place the pocket weights in the weight baskets and tilt the
machine back so it rests on the back casters.
When transporting the machine with hoisting equipment like a crane or a lift, check the total
weight permitted. (See Chapter 1 — dimensions)
Please use only appropriate, allowed, and qualified hoisting equipment as well as ropes and
chains. You will find the weight of the equipment in chapter 1 or on the serial plate on the
machine.
