Packaging and transport
5 Packaging and transport
5.1 Packaging the machine
The machine must be carefully packaged in order to transport it safely. The machine manufacturer
recommends you to transport it in the type of packaging which is used to transport it from the factory.
5.2 Transportation of the machine
IMPORTANT
Always transport the machine in a horizontal position! The vacuum pump may be damaged if
the machine is tilted!
5.3 Unpacking the machine
IMPORTANT
Always leave the machine in a horizontal position!
The procedure for unpacking the machine is as follows:
1. Bring the packed machine as close as possible to the installation site. For more information on this,
read the sub-section “Choice of place” in the next section, “Setting up the machine”.
2. Remove the packaging and check that the entire consignment is complete, cross-checking with the
delivery papers. Also check for any signs of damage in transport.
3. If the machine is damaged in transit, contact the forwarding agent and the machine supplier
immediately. The address and contact numbers of the machine manufacturer are contained in the
“Introduction”.
IMPORTANT
If the machine is damaged, hold onto all the packaging materials and await further instructions!
4. Set up the machine at its installation site.
As the box and pallet have been designed to fit the machine, we would recommend you to store them in
a dry place in case the machine has to be transported again at a later date.
