Niro Soavi S.p.A
Concerning the dimensions and weight of the machine, see the “Installation
Drawing” shown in Section 1 – TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS, in order to use
the proper lifting equipment.
The weight given is merely indicative and should be used only to select the
correct handling and transport means.
Please note that the center of gravity of the machine lies towards the
compression head (front part).
When handling unpacked machines use fork lifts (unless otherwise specified in
the handling instructions) and make sure that the compression head lies on the
operator's side. Forks should be adequately spaced and sized so as to
accomodate the entire base of the frame (figure 2.5.2) to prevent damage to the
machine frame or panels.
Side panels can be removed during transport to prevent damage; the front part
of the bodywork, under the compression head, has not been constructed to
support the weight of the machine. Do not use this part as a lifting point as this
could result in damage.

CAUTION: In order to ensure a balanced handling of the machine and
avoid damage to the machine itself or hazards for the personnel, all
movements should be carried out VERY SLOWLY by authorized
operators, who must wear suitable protection devices and comply with
safety regulations.
