4. Handling
4.1. Fixed parts
Each fixed part is usually fixed onto a wooden
platform.
Handling should preferably be carried out by means
of bridge or mobile cranes. Otherwise, use rollers or
fork lift trucks.
Weights and dimensions of the various sections are
indicated in the shipping documents and on the plant
drawings.
Fixed parts handling
To handle the fixed parts containing the
apparatus (circuit breaker, contactor or
service truck), it is compulsory to use the
lifting eyebolts provided with the module.
4.1.1. Handling with bridge or mobile crane and
unpacking
Handling the fixed part in the wood packing
Lifting by means of a crane must be carried out using
the circular slings (1) (fig. 2).
The slings must be inserted according to the lifting
symbols marked on the crate.
Weight and lifting opening angle must be taken into
account when choosing the circular slings.
Unpacking
• Remove the nails and crate lid and sides;
• loosen the screws fixing the fixed part to the pallet
(if present);
• lift the module by means of the crane;
• slide the pallet out from under the fixed part;
• position the unloading shims;
• lower the module onto the shims using the crane.
After unpacking it, lift the module by means of a
crane, using the special eyebolts (1) (fig. 3) and the
ropes fitted with safety spring catches.
After installation, remove the eyebolts (1).
4.1.2. Handling by means of transpallets or fork
lift trucks
fork lift trucks run must be completely
which might turn it over.
For greater stability, only lift the fixed part enough to
allow handling. Also check levelness of the forks.
