Loading/Relocation - Bottarini GDP21 Maintenance And Operating Manual

5. Transport and installation on site

5.3 Loading/Relocation

Fig. 14
Danger
Only use hoisting gear (e.g. crane) with
appropriate lifting capacity for the
loads occurring!
Only use the correct suspension gear!
Keep clear of the swiveling range of
the hoisting gear!
Keep clear of suspended loads!
All loose parts that could fall down
during hoisting must first be removed
or secured; pivoting parts, like doors,
towbars, etc. must be secured in such
a way that they cannot move.
Never leave the load suspended on the
hoisting gear. Acceleration or braking
of the means of transport must remain
within the approved limits.
Please also observe the safety
instructions in Chapter 3 on the
subject of loading.
Attention
Do not attempt to use a crane hook or
similar load suspension devices direct
on the lifting device to avoid damages
to the lifting device!
Use proper hoisting gears only such as
hoisting straps in compliance with DIN
standard 61360 with proper lifting ca-
pacity for connecting the load
suspension device (e.g. crane) and the
lifting device.
Only deploy load bearing equipment
which corresponds to the safety
instructions for lifting gear.
Use a transport harness compliant with
local regulations for transporting by
helicopter. The eyes provided may not
be used for this purpose (max.
acceleration if the eyes are used =
2 x g)
Never lift up or lash down the unit
using the shieldings!
Never relocate the machine if external
lines or hoses are connected to the
discharge valves, in order to avoid
damage to the valves and/or collecting
pipe and hoses.
When loading, the following points must
be observed:
* Secure the load suspension device or
the hoisting gear in the lifting device of
the screw compressor.
* When hoisting the compressor, set up
the hoisting gear in such a way that the
compressor, which must be set up
horizontally, is lifted vertically.
* Only relocate the compressor by itself.
*
Raise and lower the compressor
carefully.
* After relocating, remove the load
suspension device or the hoisting gear
from the lifting device.
* Tie down the compressor on the cargo
area of the means of transport.
* Lash only on the tow pipe of the
chassis and on the rear fixing point.
* When dismantling the chassis, the
fairing and the machine set may be
supported only under the longitudinal
stringers of the subframe box. New
self-locking nuts must be used for
installation. See section 9.5.9 for
tightening torques.
5.4 Installation on site
Fig. 15
Danger
The air intake must be positioned in
such a way that loose personal
clothing cannot be drawn in.
Make sure that the pressure pipe from
the compressor to the aftercooler or
the air system can expand as a result
of heat, and that it does not come into
contact with inflammable materials.
The air intake is to be designed in such
a way that no dangerous admixtures
(inflammable solvent vapors etc., but
also other dangerous or toxic
substances) can be taken in. This also
applies to flying sparks.
Pipes and other parts with a surface
temperature of more than 80 °C must
be suitably secured against contact
and suitably marked.
The operation of the compressor in
areas where there is a risk of explosion
is strictly forbidden! (Exception:
specially-made compressors with the
necessary technical modifications for
use in such areas)
Please also note the safety
instructions in Chapter 3 on the
subject of installation on site.
Location
The complete system is to be set up in
such a way that it is easily accessible and
that the required cooling is guaranteed.
Never block the air intake. Ensure that the
entering of moisture and dirt together with
the intake air is kept to a minimum.
The compressor is to be set up away
from walls.
