3) Checking the Work Area
The dimensions and weight of the instrument in packed state are as follows.
Check them beforehand so that sufficient space and safety can be ensured when "transporting, unpacking and
installing" the instrument.
 Working envelope when unloading the instrument from the pallet
A slope is provided for unloading the instrument from the pallet for
unpacking, so use the figure on the right as reference to ensure the
length of the slope and enough space to maneuver the unloaded
instrument.
4) Transporting the Instrument
Caution!
To prevent the instrument from getting damaged due to vibration, impact, etc., during transport, perform the
work described in "Removing the securing members inside the instrument" on P. 1-5 at the installation
location.
When pushing the instrument to move it, be careful not to let the exterior panels deform. (Push the corners of
the exterior panels of the instrument, including the top plate.)
Two persons should work together to keep the instrument from tipping over. When transporting the
instrument, place thin iron sheets, etc., to eliminate height gaps on the floor so that the instrument will not
receive impact.
When transporting the instrument on a slope, remember that, because the instrument is heavy, stopping the
instrument will not be easy once it began accelerating.
 Transporting the instrument to the work area
• Transporting on a forklift or pallet truck
When transporting the instrument on a forklift or pallet truck,
do so when the instrument is still packed, and insert the fork
into the location of the pallet carrying the packed instrument
as shown in the figure on the right. Refer to the palletizing
size in the figure on the right and check the dimensions of
the forklift truck or pallet truck beforehand.
 Transporting the instrument to the installation location
[1] Unload the packed instrument from the pallet. (Refer to p. 1-4 for a detailed procedure.)
[2] Press the four corners of the instrument by hand to transport the instrument.
