PACKING, TRANSPORT AND STORAGE 4. Packing, Transport and Storage 4.1 HANDLE WITH CARE Pump and strainer are heavy. Remove outer carton before trying to move. Check items received against packing list to be sure that all equipment has been received. Inspect for shipping damage. If found, file claim with carrier immediately. ATTENTION The manufacturer supplies the equipment protected in suitable packaging, so that it is not damaged during transport or storage thus preventing its correct installation and/or function. ATTENTION The user, upon receipt of the equipment, will immediately check the following points: • Condition of the outside packaging; if this shows signs of serious deterioration, he shall formally advise the person delivering the equipment. • He shall also check the condition of the contents; should this show defects which would presumably prevent correct functioning, he shall also formally notify the supplier within a period not exceeding 8 days from the date of delivery. ATTENTION Storage conditions must ensure the optimum preservation of the equipment. Due to its particular relevance, we must stress that very damp atmospheres, or others where there are brusque changes in temperature (which cause condensation), must be avoided. 4.2 CLEAN-UP Clean up all trash and other materials which will interfere with installation from foundation and surrounding area. For easy assembly, make sure all threaded joints and mating surfaces are clean. If necessary, clean with wire brush and solvent. Fire and explosion hazard. To reduce danger of explosion and fire, do not use gasoline as a cleaning solvent. Remove all foreign material (packing, etc.) from pump and strainer. Fire and burn hazard. Modern motors run at high temperatures. To reduce the risk of fire, do not allow leaves, debris, or foreign matter to collect around the pump motor. To avoid burns when handling the motor, let it cool before trying to work on it. 9
