Receiving and Handling

Acceptance

Thoroughly inspect this equipment before accepting shipment from
the transportation company. If any of the goods called for in the bill of
lading or express receipt are damaged or the quantity is short, do not
accept them until the freight or express agent makes an appropriate
notation on your freight bill or express receipt. If any concealed loss
or damage is discovered later, notify your freight or express agent at
once and request him to make an inspection. We are willing to assist
you in collecting claims for loss or damage in shipment; however, this
willingness on our part does not remove the transportation company's
responsibility in reimbursing you for collection of claims or
replacement of material. Claims for loss or damage in shipment must
not be deducted from the invoice, nor should payment of the invoice
be withheld awaiting adjustment of such claims, as the carrier
guarantees safe delivery.

If considerable damage has been incurred and the situation is urgent,
contact the nearest Allen-Bradley Sales Office for assistance. Please
keep a written record of all such communications.

Handling

In all cases, care should be taken to assure lifting in the direction
intended in the design of the lifting means. Lift using all lugs
provided. Likewise, precautions should be taken to prevent hazardous
overloads due to deceleration, acceleration or shock forces.

Angle of lift with rope or chain must be greater than 45 degrees from
horizontal.

For unusual conditions, such as side-wall and ceiling mounting of
horizontal motors or installation of vertical motors shipped in a
horizontal position, special precautions must be taken. It is
recommended that an experienced rigger be employed.

!

ATTENTION: Eyebolt(s) or lifting lug(s) are intended for
lifting the motor only with the standard accessories such as
tachometer, brakes, etc., mounted by Allen-Bradley. The
lifting means on the motor must not be used to lift the unit
plus additional equipment. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in personal injury.

!

ATTENTION: Eyebolts may unscrew during lifting.
Verify that eyebolts are tight and secure from turning, or lift
the unit on a sling or platform. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in personal injury.
