TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

4.1 Consignment receipt and unpackaging

Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must be checked against the delivery/shipping
documents for its completeness and that there has been no damage in transportation.

Check any crate, boxes or wrappings for any accessories or spare parts that may be packed
separately with the equipment or attached to side walls of the box or equipment.

Each product has a unique serial number. Check that this number corresponds with that
advised and always quotes this number in correspondence as well as when ordering spare
parts or further accessories.

Shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the carrier and your Pulsafeeder
Representative.

4.2 Handling

Boxes, crates, pallets or cartons may be unloaded using fork lift vehicles or slings dependent
on their size and construction.

4.3 Lifting


A crane must be used for all controller/pump sets in excess of 25 kg (55 lb). Fully trained
personnel must carry out lifting, in accordance with local regulations.

Slings, ropes and other lifting gear should be positioned where they cannot slip and where a
balanced lift is obtained.

4.4 Recycling and end of product life

At the end of the service life of the product or its parts, the relevant materials and parts should
be recycled or disposed of using an environmentally acceptable method and local
requirements. If the product contains substances that are harmful to the environment, these
should be removed and disposed of in accordance with current regulations. This also includes
the liquids and/or gases that may be used in the "seal system" or other utilities.

Make sure that hazardous substances are disposed of safely and that the correct personal
protective equipment is used. The safety specifications must be in accordance with the current
regulations at all times.
