Installation Requirements Fig. 2-1. Scott Edge Reinforcer on Shipping Skid All procedures in this section provide advance planning and site preparation data for installation of the Scott Edge Reinforcer. Environmental requirements, unpacking instructions, electrical and physical specifications are included. This information should be used as a reference during the development of site preparation plans before you install your machine.
2 Installation Pre-Installation Requirements The environmental requirements of the Scott Edge Reinforcer must be considered well in advance of the actual installation. Providing a well suited operating environment will help ensure a trouble free installation process. Consideration should be given to the following items: Power, location and rating of power connections.
Uncrating & Placement The machine will arrive in one crate. Inspect the external condition of the crates for visible signs of damage before opening. If damage is noticeable, notify the carrier and Scott Equipment before proceeding with the installation. To assist in the ease of installation, the machine is disassembled prior to shipping and requires some minor assembly before the machine is operational.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS and NOTES. Failure to do so may cause serious injury and extensive machine damage. Read through the inspection and pre--start procedures before starting the machine. Make these checks part of your routine to insure efficiency and quality during the production run. Edge Reinforcer Issue 1 3- -3...
