Fig. 10: Positions of the screws for removing the side panel
• Lift the centrifuge off the bottom of the crate by way of a forklift truck.
The centrifuge weighs approximately 450 kg!
Unloading the centrifuge with a hand pallet jack
If no forklift truck is available, one side panel of the wooden crate can be
used as a ramp so that the centrifuge can be unloaded from the crate by
way of a hand pallet jack (ground clearance 85 mm max.).
One side panel of the crate has metal fittings (see the illustration above,
detail A).
• Remove the two lower screws of the two metal fittings and then the four
outer screws in the upper half of the side panel (see the illustration
above). Then, remove the side panel. The metal fittings remain on the
side panel.
Do not remove the screws in the middle of the side panel. They hold the
substructure of the ramp in place.
