HANDLING AND TRANSPORT INSTRUCTIONS
4
Safety recommendations for handling and lifting
Before starting the operations, organise the intended working area so that the materials can be lifted
and handled in safety.
Unloading, loading, handling and lifting operations must be carried out by skilled, authorised, specifi-
cally trained staff.
During lifting and handling operations, the people not involved in the operations must remain at a safe
distance.
For lifting, use hooks and ropes which are free from damage and appropriate for the load to be lifted.
Packaging description and unpacking
The packaging normally consists of a cardboard box for easy, safe transport.
Depending on the quantity of goods to be shipped and the place of destination, packages may be fixed on a
pallet for easier lifting and handling.
Check the weight of the item on the transport documents to allow the use of suitable lifting equipment.
When unpacking, check that all components are present and intact. If items are missing or damaged, contact
the dealer or manufacturer to agree the procedures to be followed.
The packaging material must be disposed of appropriately in accordance with the relevant statutory require-
ments.
Transport
The pump may be shipped by a variety of means of transport (road, rail, sea or air) depending on its destination.
Secure the packaging firmly to the vehicle during transport, to prevent random movement.
Storage
In the event of a lengthy period out of use, place the pump (in its packaging if possible, or otherwise protected)
under cover, protected from the weather.
Do not store in places where the ambient conditions might impair the pump's operating condition over time.
Safety recommendations for installation
Take all possible precautions to allow the pump to be installed in a safe, risk-free manner.
All installation phases must be taken into consideration when designing the machinery or plant in which the
pump is to be installed.
The design must consider all mounting points, the means of transmission of the energy sources, and the pro-
tective and safety devices required by the relevant regulations to prevent the risk of injury.
