d. If the Polyshield
®
ANSI Combo is to be stored in
an outdoor location, cover the Polyshield
®
completely with a tarpaulin or dark plastic
sheeting to prevent UV degradation of the
surface.
NOTE: UV degradation (bleaching) of the
polymer concrete is the normal result of
exposure to sunlight. This phenomenon is
purely a visible change in the color of the
material, which in no way compromises the
performance or corrosion resistance
characteristics of the Polyshield®.
s
! WARNING
Do not attempt to stand a Polyshield
®
on its
end to make more efficient use of storage
space. Neither the Polyshield
®
Combo nor the
strapping that holds the Polyshield
®
Combo to
its wooden pallet have been designed for
vertical storage. Severe personal injury or
death, as well as irreparable damage to the
Polyshield
®
Combo may result if the Combo tips
over.
Lifting Polyshield ® Combo Units and
Polyshield ® Combo / Pump Assemblies
l
! CAUTION
Polyshield
®
units should be transported via
fork truck to the area of their intended
installation on the wooden pallets on which
they were shipped. Never transport a
Polyshield
®
unit over a long distance or over
rough terrain while suspended from slings.
Only trained personnel should do lifting.
Pumps and motors often have integral lifting
eyes or eye bolts. These are intended for use
in lifting the individual pieces of equipment. Do
not use these features to lift a Polyshield
®
Combo / pump assembly.
Lifting
The following procedures are recommended for lifting
Polyshield
®
ANSI Combo units:
Polyshield
®
with no mounted equipment:
s
! WARNING
Do not install eyebolts in the Polyshield
®
thread
inserts for the purpose of lifting the base. This
practice imposes lateral loads on the inserts —
which they were not designed to withstand.
Remove the metal shipping straps that hold the
Polyshield
®
unit to the wooden pallet. Slip slings
under each end of the Polyshield
®
unit as a harness
(Fig. A).
Lift the Polyshield
®
unit a few inches off the pallet and
verify that it hangs reasonably level and that the
slings are not prone to slipping out of position.
s
! WARNING
Keep hands and feet out from under the
Polyshield
®
unit during these steps. If slings
slip and the unit tips over, severe personal
injury or death may result, as well as irreparable
damage to the Polyshield® Combo
.
If the sling appears to be unstable, set the Polyshield
®
unit back on the pallet and reposition the slings.
After satisfactory slinging has been achieved, the
Polyshield
®
unit may be hoisted onto its foundation.
Take care not to bump the unit against fixed objects
or induce any unnecessary shock loads. Lower the
unit slowly over the foundation using care to center
the unit over the rebar cage. Place shim packs or
wedges under the Polyshield
®
unit at a minimum of
eight total or (four [4] locations on each side) to allow
for the removal of the slings. Twelve (12) total shim
locations or (six [6] shim locations each side are
required for Polyshield
®
units exceeding 6 feet in
length.
Polyshield
®
with installed equipment:
Pump and motor installed:
Remove the metal shipping straps that hold the
Polyshield
®
unit to the wooden pallet. Slip slings
under each end of the Polyshield
®
unit. This
procedure is recommended up to the MTX or LTX
pump units. All motors up to a 364T NEMA frame
may be installed while mounted. Motor frame sizes
365Tor larger should be removed during locating and
installation of the Polyshield
®
ANSI Combo units.
Check to see that the pump suction nozzle does not
interfere with the lifting sling. If the pump creates
interference, it should be removed. Lift the
Polyshield
®
ANSI Combo a few inches off the pallet
and verify that it hangs reasonably level and that the
slings are not prone to slipping out of position.
