5. PREPARATION AND START-UP
5.1 Unpacking
At delivery, examine the exterior for physical damage while the carrier’s representative is
present. If exterior damage is present, carefully unpack and inspect the equipment and all
accessories for damage. If there is no exterior damage, unpack and inspect the equipment
within five days of delivery. If you find any damage, keep the packing materials and
immediately report the damage to the carrier. Do not return goods to the manufacturer without
written authorization. When submitting a claim for shipping damage, request that the carrier
inspect the shipping container and equipment.
5.2 Lifting / Handling
The heavy and care should be taken to use appropriate lifting devices that are sufficiently
rated for these loads. Units should only be lifted from their bottom surfaces. Doors, handles
and knobs are not adequate for lifting or stabilization. The units should be completely
restrained from tipping during lifting and transport to prevent shifting and damage.
The depth of the incubator is 764mm, the door handle can be removed, so that the depth
reduces to 710mm.
5.3 Leveling the Units
5.3.1 Before starting your equipment, the unit must be placed horizontally on a solid,
flat floor, and elevated and leveled with three foot blocks and one flexible block
(with adjustable bolt). The foot blocks are provided to level as well as “fix” the
unit firmly on the floor. To allocate the blocks in position, please do strictly follow
the below procedures:
5.3.2 Unscrew the safety nut on the flexible block first, screw down the adjusting bolt
of the flexible block, so that it will leave some gap when it fits underneath the
hole on the base.
5.3.3 There is one hole on each corner of base of the unit, locate each of them.
5.3.4 Use lifting tools (pallet jack, scissor jack, etc) to elevate the unit, and place the
four foot blocks right underneath the holes on each corner.
