TRANSPORT, HANDLING AND STORAGE
Section 2 - Transport, Handling and Storage 2.1. Reception When the engine is delivered make sure that the packing has not been damaged during transport and that it has not been tampered with or that components inside the packing have been removed (see information marked on covers, bases and cartons). Place the packed engine as close as possible to the place of installation and remove the packing material, checking that the goods supplied correspond to the order specifications.
If you notice damage or missing parts, inform SOLÉ S.A. after-sales departments and the carrier immediately and forward photographic evidence of the damage. After inspecting the goods if you notice damage, write a reservation on the delivery note. Have the carrier countersign the note and advise SOLÉ S.A., preferably by mail (info@solediesel.com).
2.2. Transporting and Handling the Packed Engine When lifting and transporting the engine use EXCLUSIVELY a forklift or bridge crane of appropriate load capacity, with chains equipped with safety hooks suitable for lifting the load. The use of any other system automatically invalidates the insurance guarantee against possible damage to the engine. To unpack the engine, you must follow these steps: 1.
Remove the cardboard crate.
2.
Lift the engine using a forklift and suitable chains, which hook to the engine eyebolts.
3.
Transfer the engine to the intended position of installation.
4.
Remove the wooden base.
5.
Begin installation operations.
