4.0 Transportation and Installation
4.1 Storage Before Installation
To guarantee optimal storage conditions prior to installation, we recommend that the ITW GSE 7400 is
stored indoors. This protects the unit from rain and excessive humidity while it is unwrapped and not
being used.
Only equipment in rainproof packing should be stored outside.
For storage conditions, please refer to Section 5.0.
4.2 Disposal of packaging material
The ITW GSE 7400 Ground Power Unit is supplied with cardboard, plastic and wooden packaging.
These materials can be recycled and must be disposed according to the applicable laws and
regulations in each country. All wood used in the packaging of the ITW GSE 7400 are in compliance
with ISPM-15 and is not subjected to any chemical conservation treatment.
4.3 Disposal of unit (end of life)
All ITW GSE products are marked with the crossed-out wheelie bin
symbol, and state the date of manufacture on the nameplates / rating
plates in accordance with EU Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical
and electronic equipment (WEEE).
The Directive states that electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) on
reaching the end of its life must not be disposed of as unsorted
municipal/local waste. WEEE must be disposed of at appropriate
collection points and not in the normal waste stream.
WEEE covers all EEE used by consumers and EEE intended for
professional use.
The ITW GSE 7400 consists of metal (steel plates), non-ferrous metals (copper and aluminium),
fibreglass (canopy), Li-ion batteries (Leaf battery package), electronic components (PCBs, capacitors,
fuses, chargers, MCBs and contactors), wires and cables.
Non-recyclable materials must be disposed of according to applicable environmental laws and
regulations in each country. The waste and recycling service providers must be properly authorised by
national environmental agencies to carry out these activities.
