4.4 TRANSPORTING AND SECURING THE BOILER SAFELY

The boiler is susceptible to serious damage when not secured properly.
•
Follow the transportation instructions on the packaging.
•
Only transport the boiler using appropriate transportation equipment, such as a hand-truck
with a fastening belt or special equipment for transporting heavy equipment.
•
When moving the boiler, it must be secured on the transportation equipment to prevent it
from falling off.
•
Protect all parts against impacts during transportation.

4.5 UNPACKING THE BOILER

CAUTION!
The packing elements (cardboard box, straps, plastic bags, etc.) should be kept away from
children to prevent suffocation and choking hazards. AERCO refuses all liability for injury to
persons, animals or damage to property derived from not respecting the above mentioned
recommendations.
Refer to panels 1-6 of Figure 4-2 while unpacking per these instructions:
1. Prior to opening, the boiler may be moved by a hoist crane as shown (Panel 1) or forklift.
2. Remove both packing straps (Panel 2) and, finally, the cardboard box from above (Panel 3),
making sure the product is intact.
3. For the removal of the boiler from the pallet it is necessary to have a jib crane (Panel 5), to
avoid damage to the boiler during the removal.
