Figure 1 Handling with fork-lift truck
1.2 Lifting and handling
•
The wooden platforms can be lifted either with a
fork-lift truck (Figure 1) or with a crane or an
overhead travelling crane (Figure 2). In the case of
handling with a crane or overhead travelling crane,
the packs must always be loaded with at least 2
band.
•
NB. The chosen means must be suitable for
lifting and moving in safety, taking into
account dimensions, weight, center of
gravity, protrusions and fragile parts not to
be damaged.
1.3 Storage
The packs must always be kept in a covered and
sheltered place at
a temperature between -25°C
and +55°C and must not be exposed to direct
sunlight.
1.4 Stacking the packs
•
This type of packing makes it possible to stack up
to 5 packs one on top of another in a store,
provided they are correctly arranged and secured
against falling.
•
The packs may be stacked only provided they are
not resting one directly on another, but plywood
and hardboard are inserted as shown in Figure 3.
•
Up to 5 packs can be stacked in the bodies of
lorries or in containers, provided they are well
strapped down and secured against falling.
1.5 Opening
When the wooden pack arrives, check that the
machine has not been damaged during transport
and that all parts listed are present.
The wooden pack must be opened using all
possible precautionary measures to avoid damaging
the machine or its parts.
