Packaging, Transport and Storage
4.1.
Delivery
After receipt, the shipment must be checked for damage and completeness immediately. In the event of any de-
ficiencies, the transport company and the manufacturer must be informed on the day of receipt, as no claims can
otherwise be made or considered valid. Any damage must be noted on the delivery or transport receipt.
4.2.
Transport
Do not throw or tip the lifting unit during transport.
Make sure that the lifting unit does not come into contact with sharp edges. Protect the lifting unit from heavy
blows. The products are shipped in suitable packaging by the manufacturer or supplier. This generally excludes
damage during transport and storage. Should you change locations frequently, save the packaging carefully for
re-use.
4.3.
Storage
Newly delivered products are prepared for up to 1 year of storage. If the product is being placed in interim storage,
it must be thoroughly cleaned before being stored!
The following must be observed for storage:
• Place product securely on a fixed base and secure against tipping over.
• In addition, ensure that the equipment is stored in dry areas.
• Products with vacuum and/or pressure connections must have these tightly closed to prevent contamination.
• During extended storage the shaft must be protected against moisture, sunlight, heat and frost.
If you observe these regulations, your product can be stored for a longer period of time. However, note that the
elastomer parts and coatings are subject to natural embrittlement.
4.4.
Returning to the supplier
Products that are returned to the factory must be clean and correctly packaged. „Clean" means that the product
has been cleaned of contaminations and that it has been contaminated in the event of use with mediums that
are hazardous to health. The packaging must protect the product from damage. Please contact the manufacturer
before returning the product.
