5 - TRANSPORT AND HANDLING

These machines must be unloaded and positioned by a spe-
cialist handling company using the appropriate, standardized
tools.
Important: outdoor module are supplied for building work in-
stallation as split version, and the transport for the modules
must be independent, never pre-assembled.
The unit must be handled with care to avoid transport damage.
Important: Not store the units in the open air.
Before handling, check that:
- The path leading to the installation location is accessible and
free from obstacles.
- The surface to the emplacement has to be larger than
transport pallet.
Discharge via forklift truck
The outdoor module is designed to be transported safely by
using a forklift truck.
The standards and recommendations of the forklift truck must
also be respected with regards to the maximum load, inclina-
tion of the fork carriage, elevation of the load for transport,
and, in particular, the maximum speed.
The forks of the forklift truck must come in on the side of the
unit, ensuring that the center of gravity of the unit remains
within the forks, because a balancing in the transport may
cause the unit to turn over and fall from the forklift truck.
The recommended length for the forks will be bigger than the
unit width, so that the entire weight-bearing structure can be
supported on the forklift truck. This also prevents the possible
introduction of the truck's fork into functional parts of the unit
that may cause damage to the unit.
It is always mandatory to grasp the unit by the points intended
for that purpose. Any handling of the unit by other means or by
gripping points different from those described here may be danger-
ous for both the unit and the personnel who are carrying out the
discharging or transport work.
Always check the weight of the set and verify that the
discharging method used is approved for handling that
weight.
