TRANSPORT, HANDLING AND STORAGE
1.7.1 Introduction
Appliances must be transported (i.e. moved from one place to another) and handled (i.e. moved within the company
premises) using lifting devices with a suitable load-bearing capacity. The appliance can be transported by truck, train,
ship or aircraft. Apart from road transport the appliance is sent in a container together with other appliances.
The appliances can be loaded inside the container either by the manufacturer or the assigned carrier.
Due to the appliance dimensions it is not permitted to stack the appliances on top of each other during transport.
In such cases the manufacturer will not be liable should the load tip over. The manufacturer shall under no circumstanc-
es be liable for damage to the packaging or the appliances. The transport, handling and storage of the appliances must
be carried out only by specialist workers who:
- have specific technical training and experience;
- know the safety regulations and the legal provisions of their specialist area;
- have knowledge about general safety provisions;
- are able to recognise and avoid possible dangers.
The staff who are responsible for the transport, handling and storage of the appliances must be trained in the use
of hoisting aids and have sufficient knowledge to use the individual means of protection for the work to be carried out
(e.g. work wear, safety shoes, safety gloves and hard hats).
1.7.2 Unloading
Prior to removing the transport fastenings you must ensure that the stability of the appliance components does not
depend on the fastenings and that the load cannot fall from the vehicle as a result.
Standing under hanging loads
during loading and unloading is prohibited. Unauthorised persons are prohibited from accessing the work area.
Prepare a suitable location with an even floor for the unloading and storage of the appliances.
1.7.3 Handling
instructions
To ensure that that appliances are lifted safely, the following precautions must be observed:
• Use equipment with suitable characteristics and sufficient load bearing capacity (e.g.: forklift or
electric pallet truck);
• cover sharp edges;
• check the forks and observe the precautions on the packaging during lifting.
Prior to lifting:
• Ensure that all workers remain at a safe distance and prevent unauthorised people from entering
the work area;
• Check the stability of the load;
• Ensure that no material can fall during vertical movements and avoid bumps;
• Lift the appliances as little as possible when shifting them.
1.7.4 Moving the appliance and setting down the load
The driver of the hoisting aid must:
• have a good overview of the distance to be travelled;
• be able to stop driving in dangerous situations.
Prior to setting down the load you must ensure that the thoroughfare is free and the floor is even and that a device
with sufficient load bearing capacity is available.
1.7.5 Storage
The appliances and/or their parts must be protected from moisture and stored in a dry, vibration-free room with a non-
aggressive atmosphere and a temperature of 5°C / 41°F to 50°C / 122°F. The storage area must have a horizontal,
level contact surface in order to prevent the appliances becoming misshapen or the support feet being damaged.
The appliances may only be installed, assembled and disassembled by specialist workers. The accessories delivered
with the appliances must not be changed. Any parts that have been lost or are faulty must be replaced with original
parts.
