4 - TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
The apparatus must be lifted with a winch fitted with a hook (A) and handled with a transpallet or forklift
truck of suitable capacity.
The area of movement must be free from objects or people not involved in the transport operation.
If the equipment is handled using a winch, it is necessary to use some spreader bars (C) between the lifting
ropes, to prevent the unit from being damaged and ensure no excessive pressure is applied to the packaging
or machine itself.
Lifting with a winch fitted with a hook
Use hooks of capacity and material suitable to the weight to be lifted. Ensure the safety lock (D) is in the cor-
rect position while lifting.
DO NOT move the equipment if the field of vision is poor or
if there are obstacles along the way (e.g. electrical cables,
lintels, etc.). The range of action of the lifting equipment
must be kept free from people when the loads are lifted.
Shifting must always be vertical. Use steel hooks, chains or
cables in perfect condition, of a suitable material and ca-
pacity and without any joints or extensions (E). Carry out
periodic checks to guarantee efficiency.
To anchor the unit, pass the ropes or chains through the
pallet holes (B), paying attention it is kept perfectly level.
Check the flatness of the ground where the lifting equip-
ment is standing, making sure it is stable and not prone to
subsidence.
Do not move the lifting equipment during the operation.
Before starting lifting, check correct anchoring to the men-
tioned points and the centre of gravity, then slowly lift the
packaged equipment to the minimum height required and
move it carefully to avoid dangerous vibrations.
Take care of the control panel that must undergo no im-
pacts or be exposed to the weather (rain, humidity): any
damage may affect its operation.
Avoid sudden stops of the lifting or descending movement, in order to avoid dangerous oscillations.
