05.1 Moving Equipment and Access for System Installation
Moving Equipment and Access Requirements
Moving and positioning the crated ProJet™ 7000 requires a pallet jack or roll-a-lifts, (customer supplied).
Passageways and doors must be wide enough to allow for moving and turning the ProJet™ 7000, (with lifting equipment when crated).
Most standard doorways and halls provide adequate access for moving the system.
The ProJet™ 7000 is equipped with wheels and can be rolled when uncrated.
