Safety Information
While Morse Manufacturing Co. drum handling equipment is
engineered for safety and efficiency, a high degree of responsibility
must be placed upon the machine operator to follow safe practices,
based primarily on common sense, upon which true safety
depends.
Failure to follow the safety precautions in this manual can result in
personal injury or property damage. Observe the same precautions
as with similar machinery where carelessness in operating or
maintenance is hazardous to personnel. Carefully read the safety
precautions below and throughout this manual.
Receiving Procedures
Every Morse drum handler is inspected prior to shipping. However,
damage may be incurred during transit.
• Check for visible damage. If you choose to accept damaged
freight, always sign noting the damage on the
BILL OF LADING
.
• Document the damage and have the truck driver sign. We
recommend keeping a digital camera at your receiving dock for
this purpose.
• Open packages expeditiously to check the condition of the
goods. There is only a 24 hour window to notify the carrier of any
concealed damage.
•
IMMEDIATELY REPORT ALL DAMAGE TO THE SHIPPING
COMPANY!
Then you may contact Morse for assistance with
your freight claim.
• Morse Manufacturing will not be held responsible for any
damaged freight that is not signed for as damaged.
Delivery to non-business addresses without a loading dock result
in additional freight charges. Residential delivery fees, inside
delivery fees, re-delivery charges, and lift gate services will be
added by the truck line, and are non-negotiable.
