Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity of
each item have been received. If any items are missing,
report shortages to your local representative to arrange
for obtaining missing parts. Due to availability of
transportation and truck space all items for the unit may
not be shipped together. Confirmation of shipment(s)
must be limited to only items on the bill of lading.
Handling
Lifting the units must be done with care to avoid
damaging the housing. Fabra hood gravity ventilators
are to be rigged and moved by the optional lifting
brackets provided or by the skid when a forklift is used.
Location of brackets varies by model and size. Handle
in such a manner as to keep from scratching or chipping
the coating (if applicable). Damaged finish may reduce
the ability of the ventilator to resist corrosion.
