3. Transport
3.1 Transport
In view of the heavy weight of the ECOTRON ® it should never be transported or moved by one
person alone. For displacements over longer distances within a building the use of a fork lit or a
small trolley is recommended. However the shaker is only to be moved by a fork lift if it is still
standing on the original palette on which it was delivered by the manufacturer. Also, transport on a
small trolley has to be effected with great care.
Danger of shearing off the shaker's feet in case of exceptional stress. Therefore, never push
the equipment without lifting it.
Should it no longer be possible to transport the equipment using a small trolley it should be carried
by two adults using the two handles on each side. Weight without tray and cooling min. 60 kg.
The handles left and right are only for lifting the machine and not for transport (danger of
tipping).
3.2 Packing
Depending on the version and the destination the ECOTRON shaker is either packed seaworthy or
placed on a large special palette. Non-polluting packing material was chosen in order to minimize
pollution
3.3 Unpacking
Please be sure that the shaker, especially the window, will not sustain damage (scratches) during
unpacking.
Transport security: Open the door and remove the polystyrene blocks in the incubation chamber. If
the unit is transported again later, the transport security must be fitted. After fitting, the shaking
table must be fixed.
Care when putting the unit down – to avoid crushing your fingers, only place the equipment in
location using the integral handles.
