INTRODUCTION
TRANSPORTATION AND HAULING
Transportation must be carried out carefully. It is recommended to leave
the unit in the original packaging until installation to avoid possible
damage and contamination. Transportation and hauling must be carried
out by trained and experienced personnel and the necessary safety
precautions should be taken to prevent the overturning and slipping of
the unit.
Due to the high centre of gravity, the unit can tip over and cause
personal injury and material damage. When transporting the unit,
carefully observe its behaviour and stay clear of any possible
hazardous areas.
The unit can be hauled using a forklift, a pallet truck, or a crane. It
should be ensured that the weight is evenly distributed when hauling
the unit.
DANGER
Personal injury and/or material damage due to the unit tipping
over!
DANGER

material damage due to
incorrect transportation
and hauling!
It must be ensured that
the means of transport
and lifting meet the
capacity requirements
related to weight and
size. Make sure that
the unit is firmly seated
before lifting it.
DANGER
Danger due to
overhead loads!
The lifting gear, units,
cables, or the tackle
could be faulty or
damaged. Never stand
beneath suspended
loads.
Before hauling the unit, ensure that the forks of the forklift are long
enough to lift more than the entire underside of the unit. Lift the unit
slowly.
DANGER
Personal injury and/or material damage due to the unit falling
from the forklift!
