sumes no responsibility or liability if the slide gate is not installed, operated and maintained in strict
accordance to the procedures described in this manual.
HANDLING AND STORAGE

Stems have precision surfaces and should never be used as a mean to lift the slide gate.
Special care shall be taken on any machined surface when lifting the gate.
Equipment shall be stored in a dry, clean and even area on a raised even wood surface
to prevent distortion of the frame. Do not stack slide gates
.
Stems and extensions that are shipped separately shall be supported over their entire
length to prevent any bending or distortion while in storage.
