5. Installation
5.1 Unpack and inspect
The pump is supplied in a cardboard box. It is equipped with four M8 boreholes for eye-
bolts for transport.
1. Where possible, the pump should remain in its sealed bag until it is installed.
2. Take care when unpacking the pump to avoid excessive shocks which could damage
the bearings and reduce the life of the pump. The pump is supplied with the inlets
and outlet sealed to prevent entry of dust and vapour. Do not remove these seals
until ready to install the pump on the vacuum system.
3. Open the cardboard box from the top. Once the box lid is open, remove the upper
pieces of foam and cut open the bag.
4. If the pump is damaged, notify the supplier and the carrier in writing within three
days; state the item number of the pump together with the order number and the
supplier's invoice number. Retain all packing materials for inspection. Do not use
the pump if it is damaged.
5. Check that the package contains the items listed in Table: Checklist of items. If any
of these items are missing, notify the supplier in writing within three days.
6. If the pump is not to be used immediately, store in suitable conditions as described
in Storage on page 108.
7. It is advised to retain all packing materials for use, should you return the pump for
service.
