4. START-UP AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
4.1. TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
The machine is delivered to the purchaser fully assembled, in special packaging whose features are indicated in
figure 4.1 below. The centre of gravity is marked by a black arrow on the packaging. The forks of the forklift or
pallet truck must be positioned with the black arrow centred between them. The package must be handled with
extreme care. Do not stack one package on top of another.
If agreed with the purchaser, the machine can be delivered without packaging, placed on a pallet and secured
by means of straps.
The purchaser should check upon delivery that the machine has not been damaged during
transport and that all the material listed in the transport documentation has been received;
otherwise, the forwarders and manufacturer should be promptly informed.
Unless otherwise agreed, purchased goods will travel at the purchaser's own risk.
Handling must be performed with appropriate lifting equipment and devices, as indicated in the following table.
Always ensure that the elevator forks and harness straps are placed so that the black arrow on the packaging is
centrally positioned in relation to the lifting system. Anchor and/or harness points must be arranged so that the
machine remains in a stably balanced position during lifting.
