2.3. HANDLING AND LIFTING THE FAN
The fans must be handled by experienced and fully trained staff. A wrong handling or lifting could damage the fans. The
most frequent are the following:
• shifting of the wheel on the shaft due to loosening of the hub set screws
• bending or misalignment of the shaft
• bending of the frames
• dents on the housing
• damage of the bearings; in particular a wrong tightening of the locking system
The fans are supplied in a carton box, pallets or cages.
The lifting equipments must be chosen according to weight and type of the goods.
The fan fitted with side frames should be lifted by its lifting lugs (holes or slots) in four points.
The fans without frames may be lifted with a rope secured to the shaft ends.
Do not bend or misalign frames and shaft when lifting the twin and triple fans. We suggest to fix them on a pallet larger
than the dimension of the fan base.
The fans supplied in a carton box, must be handled with equipment which avoids damaging the packaging.
The units on pallet must be lifted by a forklift truck.
