winch, forklift or pallet jack).
• Follow the instructions given in the specific paragraph concerning machine lifting, handing and
installation.
• Follow the standard precautions for the safe use of the forklifts, hoists or lifting equipment
considered suitable for carrying out lifting and handling operations (considering their maximum
hoisting capacity). In particular, avoid bumps and overturning; for example, when using a forklift
truck it is essential to insert the forks under the supporting structure of the load; when using a
hoist it is necessary to check that the load is correctly rigged to make sure there is no risk of it
being dropped during lifting and handling; when using a crane, a guide rope may be required to
avoid hazardous shifting of the load.
• Check and if necessary make sure that all parts that could move are correctly secured.
• Check and if necessary make sure that all piping on the
machine or auxiliary equipment has
been emptied.
• Never, under any circumstances, lift the various parts of the
machine by grabbing hold of non-
structural elements (e.g. cables or sheaths).
• Make sure there is no-one in or near the area where lifting, handling and unloading operations
are performed. Always keep a safe distance.
• Always give out a warning that manoeuvres are about to commence.
• Never pass under suspended loads.
• Never travel on suspended loads.

Manuals or after having followed specific and formal training.
• Choose an installation site that:
• provides adequate space for normal use as well maintenance of the
machine,
including room for any peripheral equipment;
• allows you to correctly make the connections needed for the machine to function.
