3. Transportation, conveyance, storage and installation
3.1 Precautions for transportation, moving and storing the pump
(1) Do not unpack the container unnecessarily.
If you unpack the container unnecessarily, securely pack again in such a manner that the
product body does not jump out of it and fall down during transportation, conveyance or storage.
(2) When you transport, move, or store the pump, ensure that the pump is located in a
well-ventilated place with minimum exposure to dust and moisture in an environment at an
ambient temperature of -25 to 55 degrees Celsius and humidity of lower than 85%RH. The
packing materials, made mainly of corrugated cardboards, break more easily when they absorb
moisture.
(3) Check the orientation of the container and then place it in the correct orientation (not upside
down).
(4) Do not stack the containers of the product more than the allowable number of units indicated on
the packing material.
The maximum permissible number of stacks for this product is four.
(5) Use extreme care so as not to give an impact or offset load to the pump during conveyance or
transportation. The container may greatly incline depending on its center of gravity.
Warning
Before transporting or moving the product, confirm the weight of each unit
by referring to the catalog, dimensional outline drawing, and other
documents, and then determine the appropriate method.
Caution
When lifting the product by hand, give attention to its center of gravity and
weight. Do not allow any product heavier than 15 kg to be lifted by a single
person. Otherwise, it may put strain on the body, thus leading to an injury.
3.2 Before using the pump
When you receive the pump, check the following points first.
If there are any problems, contact the vendor from which you purchased the product.
Caution
Ensure that the delivered container is placed in the correct orientation (not
upside down) before unpacking. Pay special attention to nails especially
when opening a wooden crate. Otherwise, you may get injured.
(1) Check the nameplate to verify that the delivered product is exactly what you ordered. (Refer to
2.4 "Nameplate entries”, page 2-3).
(2) No part of the product is damaged during transportation.
(3) All fastening parts including bolts and nuts are securely tightened.
(4) All the accessories that you ordered have been delivered.
Warning
Do not hold the strainer on the tip of the pump during handling. Failure to
observe this may cause the strainer to come off, resulting in an injury or
breakage.
