CAUTION! Do not cross the chains.
4. Using the four corner tie-downs, the machine can be secured without dragging chains across
its top. It is a fast, easy, and secure transportation method that protects against damage. If
there is limited access, wrap perimeter of base above feet with chain tension as necessary.
Be sure to explain to the rigger that this is how you want the machine to be moved BEFORE
he does something else.
5. If you wish to tarp the machine, you should be aware of a few potential trouble spots. If a tarp
is simply placed over the machine and tightened down, it can do considerable damage, such
as bending the conduit carrier for the headstock, wearing paint off the machine, distorting the
enclosure, and damaging the clear plastic parts. If you must use a tarp, make sure that it is
supported off the machine by a wooden frame or other secure structural means.
6. If the fork locations are not painted on the sides, refer to the earlier figures and add them.
CAUTION! These fork positions are very important, and if they are ignored, there is a good
chance that the retaining bolts will be sheared off by the forks and that the machine will tip
over when it is lifted.
This completes packing the VMC for shipping. If you have questions, contact your dealer or the
Haas Automation factory.
