Preparing for use
4.5 Transport and storage
Danger when incorrectly lifting and transporting
The motor can slide or topple over if it is not correctly lifted or transported. This can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
• Use all the lifting eyes on the machine.
• When using the lifting eyes on the machine, do not attach any additional loads or weight.
The lifting eyes are only designed for the weight of the machine itself.
• Any eyes that are screwed in must be tightly fastened.
• Eyebolts must be screwed in right up to their supporting surface.
• Comply with the permissible eyebolt loads.
• When necessary, use suitably dimensioned lifting equipment, for example hoisting slings
(EN1492-1) and webbing load restraints (EN12195-2).
Danger if the machine falls
The attachment points on the machine are designed for the weight of the machine only. If a
machine set is lifted and transported at a single machine, this can fracture the attachment
point. The machine or machine set may fall. This can result in death, serious injury or material
damage.
• Do not lift machine sets by attaching lifting tackle to the individual machines.
• Use only the equipment provided, e.g. the openings or lugs on the base plates, for
transporting machine sets. Note the maximum capacity of the lifting lug.
• Never remain under or in the immediate vicinity of the machine when it is lifted.
Note
When lifting the machines for transport, only lift them in a position that corresponds to their
basic construction type.
