Moving the Machine into Final Position
Hurco recommends that the customer review this section to determine if there is proper
capacity and ability to lift and place the machine into the location. If not, then a rigging
agency should be contacted.
Machine on shipping pallet with auxiliary equipment may be moved near the final position
before it is removed from shipping pallet.
Machine Lifting Requirements
Ensure an appropriate forklift or crane is available to lift the machine.
Be sure the crane or forklift is sized properly to lift the machine’s shipping weight. The
machine’s shipping weight is defined as the machine on the shipping pallet with the
auxiliary equipment still on the pallet.
Move the machine on its shipping pallet to a location next to the final installation site. Set
the machine and pallet down, allowing enough space around the machine to later lift the
machine off of the shipping pallet. Machine should be removed from the shipping pallet
by using a crane or forklift. Be sure the crane or forklift is sized properly to lift the
machine off of the shipping pallet.
Removing Auxiliary Equipment
It is recommended to remove auxiliary equipment from the shipping pallet after moving
machine on shipping pallet near permanent installation site.
1. Unpack the equipment:
a. Remove the outer covering and all boxes attached to the pallet.
b. Remove all packaged items (conveyors, tanks, chillers) from the shipping
pallet.
2. Verify all equipment has arrived and is unloaded.
3. Inspect machine for damage.
4. Remove the nuts and washers that attach the machine to the shipping pallet.
Ensure door clearances are sufficient for the machine to be moved
through. Refer to the Model-specific Specifications document for
machine dimensions.
Ensure the lifting brackets and crane/forklift capacity are sufficient to
hold the machine’s weight. Refer to the Model-specific Specifications
document for machine weight.
