3.3 Installation of the press
WARNING
Lifting heavy loads
If the lifting equipment or lifting gear is insufficiently dimensioned or
incorrectly attached, suspended loads may fall down.
Use a lifting equipment with sufficient load capacity.
Use a sufficiently dimensioned lifting gear to lift the component.
Do not step below suspended components.
WARNING
Falling loads
The lifting screw may become loose from the threaded hole due to
uncontrolled rotation during lifting.
Use pivot-mounted lifting screws.
Always mount all lifting screws for lifting.
Make sure that the component does not rotate during lifting.
The press must be installed safely (in terms of work safety) at its future
operating location.
The future operating location must be designed for the weight of the press,
including tools. Apart from weight of the press itself, the stress caused by the
working process (dynamics and vibrations) must be taken into account.
The space required for the press and any supply lines that may be present
must be taken into account.
Press with frame
Before start-up, the press must be screwed down to the press base (option)
or to another stable mounting plate.
To lift the press, you can fasten the transport equipment at the upper
crossbeam of the frame.
