or base that can be moved using e.g. a fork lift, chain hoist, etc.. of
sufficient capacity. This is for good reasons. After arrival the new
owner is expected to use proper appliances and machines of sufficient
capacity to move the product. This is not just to prevent damage to the
product, but also for reasons of personal safety.

heavy products as defined under 1 without use of proper lifting or
hoisting appliances, or use of such devices without sufficient capacity,
as defined under 2, the client will be entirely responsible.
4. In case of hoisting heavy products using aids (fork lift, chain hoist, etc.)
the rules as given below MUST BE COMPLIED WITH. If not, the client/
owner/ user will be entirely responsible.

and also concerning the protection of the product from damage (e.g. to
the paint) resulting from the use of hoisting and lifting devices. If you
dont comply, you will be responsible for all consequences.
3. Follow the manufacturers advice about fixing and securing movable
parts or any other measures to be taken during transport and lifting. If

education and experience. If you dont comply, you will be responsible
for all consequences.
