Setting-Up Instructions; Important When Machine Is Hoisted - GT WTU 457 Mode D'emploi

SETTING-UP INSTRUCTIONS

Open-air operation
- As indicated by its protection category, the machine may be set up and
operated in the open air. However, the built-in electrical parts must be
protected from direct wetting caused by e. g. external wet cleaning etc.
Cooling air
- The machine must be set up in such a way that the cooling air can enter
and leave the machine freely through the louver-type slots at the front
and rear of the machine respectively.
Dust
- Make sure that any metal dust caused by e. g. grinding work is not
sucked into the machine by the cooling fan.
Ambient temperature
- The power source must be positioned well away from such sources of
heat as radiators, heating or annealing furnaces, direct hot sunshine
etc., which would raise its temperature still further.
IMPORTANT WHEN MACHINE IS
HOISTED!
Warning! The machine must NEVER be crane-hoisted unless it has
been fitted with a single-hook lifting device.
- Fit the hooks on the ends of the chains or cables into all the 4 hoisting
lugs (fig. 7), and secure them wherever possible. The angle of the
chains/cables should be as near-vertical as possible.
- For greater easy of handling, and for higher safety when hoisting the
machine by crane, we strongly recommend that you fit a single-hook
crane-hoisting attachment. (fig. 7a)
- Detach all welding cables and other loose parts, or attach them to the
machine so securely that they cannot fall from the machine while it is
being hoisted and cause injury or damage (tie up the mains cable)
