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.

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. VI-1).
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 six 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 365T or 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.
