means to make their transport and subsequent handling easier. Non-

used as anchorage points, are inserted and/or can be inserted.
The ropes and means used for lifting must be suitable for bearing the weight of the equip-
ment.
Do not lift several units or parts of the equipment at the same time unless
otherwise indicated.

staples, adhesive tape, straps, etc.) may cause cuts and/or injuries if not
handled with care. They should be removed by suitable means and not
left in the hands of individuals who are not responsible (e.g. children).
The packaging components must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations in force
in the country of installation.
When you open the package, check that the equipment is undamaged
