    5.1 Transport and storage Transporting material When loading/unloading or transporting the equipment at the workplace, you must use suitable transport and lifting equipment (e.g. crane/forklift, truck). Ensure that components are lifted and transported carefully so that they cannot fall, taking into account package size, weight, center of gravity and fragile parts. Use a forklift or pallet truck to transport the package (figure 1).
  • Page 12: Software Installation

    After installation, we recommend that you use the laptop's power cable as a power source instead of the laptop battery when operating the ACROS. 6.1 Installation software for PRITEC ACROS control Download operating software The plasma table is controlled by so-called “control software”. The software is freely accessible and easy to download via the website.
