Transporting And Lifting - Baileigh Industrial HSP-30M Operator's Manual

TRANSPORTING AND LIFTING

IMPORTANT:
such as a truck operator, crane operator, etc. If a crane is used to lift the machine, attach the
lifting chain carefully, making sure the machine is well balanced.
Follow these guidelines when lifting with truck or trolley:
 The lift truck must be able to lift at
least 1.5 – 2 times the machines
gross weight.
 Make sure the machine is balanced.
While transporting, avoid rough or
jerky motion, and maintain a safe
clearance zone around the transport
area.
 Use a fork lift with sufficient lifting
capacity and forks that are long
enough to reach the complete width
of the machine.
 Remove the securing bolts that
attach the machine to the pallet.
 Approaching the machine from the
side, lift the machine on the frame
taking care that there are no cables
or pipes in the area of the forks.
 Move the machine to the required position and lower gently to the floor.
 Level the machine so that all the supporting feet are taking the weight of the machine and no
rocking is taking place.
Follow these guidelines when lifting crane or hoist:
 Always lift and carry the machine with the lifting holes provided at the top of the machine.
 Use lift equipment such as straps, chains, capable of lifting 1.5 to 2 times the weight of the
machine.
 Take proper precautions for handling and lifting.
 Check if the load is properly balanced by lifting it an inch or two.
 Lift the machine, avoiding sudden accelerations or quick changes of direction.
 Locate the machine where it is to be installed, and lower slowly until it touches the floor.
Lifting and carrying operations should be carried out by skilled workers,
