Installation and Connection
5.1.4. Handling Recommendations
Remove the package completely only at the installation site, where the panel will be operated.
Before hoisting or moving the panel, locate the hoisting eyes and fragile spots in the documentation that comes
with the product.
Follow the handling instructions contained in the documentation that comes with the panel.
5.1.5.
Hoisting
Make sure that the lifting device used to hoist the panel and the arms is suitable for their shape and weight
indicated in the
figure 5.1 at figure 5.3 and in the table 5.7 at table 5.13 .
Observe the gravity center and ensure that the hoisting mechanism is adequate and safe. Use the configuration
shown in the
figure 5.4 .
The cables or chains used for hoisting must be at a minimum angle of 45° regarding the horizontal plane.
Hoisting must be done in a slow and stable manner. Before starting, make sure the entire pass is clear of
obstacles. If any alteration or damage in the panel structure is noticed, stop the hoisting and rearrange the cables
or chains.
NOTE!
The hoisting eye supplied with the Nema 12 panel is optional.

5.1.6. Moving
Make sure that all the panel doors are closed and locked and that the door handles are in a protected position.
When cranes or pulleys are used, make sure that the movements are slow and smooth, so that the panel and the
arms do not suffer excessive swings and vibration.
When using movable hydraulic jacks, forklifts, rollers or other movement means, distribute the support points from
one extreme of the panel through the other, avoiding pressure on fragile areas.
