Hoisting equipment must be checked at least once a year - even more often, according to the Country regulations – by a qualified
technician who will verify their fitness. The check report is to be kept inside the machine’s dossier.
Check and verification schedule must be adapted to the actual use of the machine. Intensive use demands for shorter intervals
between maintenance operations.
NOISE LEVELS
The level of acoustic pressure produced by our machines with a full load is always inferior to 85 dB (A).
This value does not include the contributions and effects of environmental characteristics such as, for example, the transmission and
reflection of sound through metal frames
PACKING
Hoist only
Over land
It consists of a pallet to which the machine is fastened; the block is carefully gathered on its side thus avoiding bending or crushing of
the rope.
Particular protection is granted to delicate parts, namely limit switches, power supply cables and terminals.
On request, waterproof protection can be provided. For distant destinations everything is protected by a wooden crate inside which
the machine is waterproofed against rain.
Over sea
The machine is packed in a strong IK standard size case, or as the client requires. Markings showing weights, lifting-points and
storage are included. The instructions given must be carefully followed in order to avoid lubricant-leakage.
HOIST WITH OTHER COMPONENTS
If the hoist is shipped along with other parts of bridge cranes or similar machines, the packaging is specifically designed for the
relevant order. The various components are carefully positioned, with reliable fixed supports so as to avoid internal movements or
collisions during transportation, loading and unloading, taking into consideration total weight and center of gravity.
