10. HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
The machine can only be handled with the suction and delivery piping disconnected and with the power supply
motor still or disconnected.
The machines installed on frame can be handled with lifting appliances that can be connected to the lifting hook
envisioned on the same machine, using suitable safety systems.
The machine must be transported in horizontal position and in optimal safety conditions.
Lift the unit using only the lifting points.
Before handling the machine, check dimensions and weights on the plate.
Do not stand within the action range during handling of the machine.
During the start-‐up and maintenance interventions, envision a safe transport of all components using
appropriate harness. Handling must be carried out by specialised staff to avoid damaging the machine and
causing accidents to staff.
The lifting points of the various components must only be used to lift the components for which they were
supplied.
Do not stand or transit underneath and near-‐by the machine when it is lifted from the ground.
To anchor the machine to the transport surface, block the same using ropes or chains.
N.B. No additional accessory can be connected to the motor pump or electric pump unit during the lifting or
the handling.
11. STORAGE
In case of storage, arrange the machine in a closed place; if left in the open, cover it with a waterproof lining.
Avoid humidity accumulating around the machine. Do not leave the pump body full of liquid. Drain it through
appropriate drain plug. The liquid may freeze during the winter months and damage the system. When the
liquid is dangerous, take all necessary precautions before draining the tank to prevent damages and accidents.
Periodically start the pump for a few seconds to avoid scaling inside the same pump.
