INSTALLATION
To install the machine is to unwrap, erect and position structures, align, level and position all conveyors according to
the machine’s layout drawing specifications and install any options the equipment could have. Install all junction
boxes and liquid tight wire runs under the conveyors. Make sure all sensors and quick plugs are properly connected.
Hook-up necessary communication signals, required electrical power (always done by an electrician) and air supply.
At this point electrical power and air flow are not applied. Then, during start-up, verify voltage compatibility, air
pressure, and overall functionality.
For the installation of the machine, you will need:
One (1) forklift trucks available, each with a capacity of at least 2,500 lbs (5,000 lbs capacity might be
required depending on machine options).
One mechanic with tools (Impact tool and hammer drill)
One electrician with tools
Straps to lift conveyors, structure, legs etc.
