6. Installation
6.2 Transport to the site
• When transporting the instrument on wheels,
(2) grip the cabinet only at the marked loca-
tions ( ).
• To do so, unscrew the adjustable feet using the
No. 13 open-end wrench (when subsequently
transporting the instrument on castors, screw
the feet back in as far as they will go). To en-
sure a secure upright position at its intended
location, align both adjusting feet (1).

• First, check if the location meets the conditions specified in "Site requirements".
• Transport the instrument to the desired location.
• Observe the following:
1
When tilting the instrument 2 people must counterbalance from the front side to prevent
the instrument from falling down and causing severe injury!
The instrument must be transported in an upright position or slightly tilted (max. 30°)!
Before transport or relocation, remove
the filter bag from the chamber. If you
fail to do this, the filter bag will thaw,
then freeze solid when the instrument
is reconnected. When subsequently
removed, the filter will be destroyed,
causing section waste to get into the
bacteria filter ( also refer to Chap. 6.5.8
Assembling the filter bag ).
When not using the extraction for a long
period, tightly close the opening for the
extraction hose using the silicone stop-
per included in the standard scope of
delivery (E, Fig. 29 )!
