gloves, accident-prevention shoes, overalls or other devices eventually needed by the law in force,
according to the type of the operations to do.
WARNING! Operators must comply with the requirements and prohibitions required by law in force for

-
prohibit the access of unauthorized people to the work;

WARNING! Neglecting the precautions indicated above, can cause serious injuries and/or accidents
resulting in damage to equipment and injury to operators.
In severe cases, accidents can cause death of workers.
4.2 TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
Before being transported, the generator must be emptied of all the fluids contained in the generator in
order to prevent the escape of any dangerous substances (e.g. engine oil, coolant).
The generator is sent assembled, anchored to a pallet by means of the fixing holes positioned on the plates of
the generator itself and inserted in a wooden box, provided with lower crossbars.
Optional items are shipped in a cardboard box attached, by strapping, to the main box.
