General sources of danger during in-house transportation
Danger to life!
Do not stand under suspended loads.
Machines must be transported by authorized and qualified personnel only.
Act responsibly when transporting the machine and always consider the conse-
quences. Avoid dangerous and risky actions.
Slopes and gradients (driveways, ramps, etc.) are particularly dangerous. Use extra
care if such passage-ways cannot be avoided.
Ensure secure and proper seating of the cargo. If necessary, use additional fixtures
to ensure that the cargo is not able to slip.
The transport vehicles must be able to produce sufficient traction and braking
forces for safe transport.

PREPARATIONS
Power Supply
The power supply cord to the machine should be as short as
possible. Use a sufficient wire size.
The power supplies for the programmable logic controller (PLC) and the numerical
control (NC) require stable mains conditions, i.e., the max. allowed operating voltage
fluctuations are +10% or -10%.
The mains line must comply with the regulations of the local electricity supplier and
the IEEE directives. For further information, see the machine installation chart in
Chapter “Working Documents”.
Main Circuit Breaker
Check that the building connection has sufficient capacity to
cover the additional load to be protected.
Discuss any unclear conditions with your local electricity sup-
plier.
The main circuit breaker is not included in the delivery of the machine. It must be
installed outside the machine according to DIN EN 60204-1.
If a pre-transformer is required, the main circuit breaker must be installed before
the pre-transformer, i.e., on the primary side.
The loads to be protected depend on the existing operating voltage.
The values for:
– Machine connection,
– operating voltage,
– main circuit breaker
are indicated on the name plate or the wiring diagram.
External Data Transfer
Data lines must not be routed directly next to power lines.
For data transfer to/from external computers or storage devices, suitable metal
conduits must be installed for the data lines.

PREPARATIONS
Pumps and Tanks
Changing the hydraulic fluid and cooling lubricant is part of the periodic mainte-
nance tasks.
To fill the machine's hydraulic fluid tank with hydraulic fluid, a pump with a 10 µm
fine filter (absolute) is required that may be used for this purpose only.
A simple pump is sufficient to extract the used hydraulic fluid or cooling lubricant.
The same pump may be used to fill the cooling lubricant tank; however, it must be
thoroughly flushed with fresh cooling lubricant.
A robust container is required for collecting the extracted fluids. Suitable containers
are metal barrels of sufficient capacity and with proper labels, which can be tightly
closed.
Chip Removal
If the machine is equipped with a chip conveyor, a chip trolley, its height match-
ing the chip conveyor's dropping height, is required. The chip trolley should have a
device for draining the accumulating cooling lubricant so it can be returned to the
cooling lubricant tank.
This will protect the environment and save cost.
Disposal of Used Operating Materials
Decide in advance on how to dispose of used operating fluids such as hydraulic
fluid, lubricating oil, and cooling lubricant in an environmentally friendly manner.
Observing the Ground and Waste Water Regulations
The machine contains water-polluting substances such as water-miscible cooling
lubricants and mineral oils. These substances may leak from the machine in case of
adverse events.
Therefore, the machine must be installed in a place that excludes any harm by
these substances to waters or ground water.
Possible preventive measures:
– Place the machine inside a tight trough.
– Seal the floor of the factory hall.
The locally valid guide lines and regulations must be taken into con-
sideration.

Delivery
Machine
The machine will be delivered by a special truck.
The machine will be in the following condition when delivered:
– The hydraulic fluid and lubrication oil tanks will be full.
– The cooling lubricant tank will be empty. (The machine has a chip conveyor with
an integrated cooling lubricant tank or a separate coolant cleaning system. The
chip conveyor and coolant cleaning system are separate units.)
– Certain moving parts on the machine, such as sliding covers and the swiveling
operating panel, are secured by transport locks or were removed.
– Protruding machine parts hampering the transport may have been removed.
– All blank parts of the machine were treated by spray-covering with an anti-rust
agent.
Pressure Accumulator
If the machine was shipped by plane, all accumulators attached to the machine are
depressurized.
Before start-up of the machine, all accumulators must be filled with nitrogen (N2) by
a specialist. The prescribed pressures must be observed.
For the prescribed pressures, see the hydraulic diagrams in Chapter “Working
Documents”.
Other Separate Units
Certain options or accessories such as chip conveyor, bar feeder, bar loading maga-
zine, etc. are usually separate units.
Chip conveyors usually rest on a transport base for shipping.
The bar feeder and bar loading magazine are delivered in a special shipping crate.
Loose parts such as keys, tools, and fittings, are supplied in a special box, which
may be included with a separate unit.
Before unloading, check the machine, the enclosed accessories, and any separate
units for external damages and completeness (compare bill of lading with delivery
note).
Have the carrier confirm any damages or missing parts on the bill of lading or
delivery note.
In case of damages during transport, it is recommended to take photos of the
damages for evidence.

Transporting with Transport Casters
The machine is transported by a forwarder using a special truck.
For internal transport, the machine is prepared while still on
the truck and placed onto transport casters or armored rollers.
Adequate hydraulic jacks are used to lift the machine.
The steering caster of the transport casters or armored rollers is
located at the counter spindle end (Fig.: 1).
The machine is supported by a winch during loading and unload-
ing. Round slings are used between the winch and the lifting or
lashing points for securing. (Fig.: 2)

TRANSPORT
Delivery
Due to the machine's high center of gravity, we recommend
transporting with transport casters only if the ground is abso-
lutely even and horizontal.
INDEX uses plastic plates or Teflon plates to bridge slightly uneven
points and to reduce the rolling resistance. (Figs. 4 and 5)
This applies in particular to transporting on irregular or soft grounds
such as industrial parquet floors or rubber or PVC-based floor covers.
Suspension and lashing points
The lifting and lashing points that serve to
secure the load on the truck are also used
for loading and unloading the machine. As
shown in Fig. 6, two of the lifting and lash-
ing points (Y) and the round slings (X) are
connected with the winch (Z) installed on
the truck.
The two free lifting and lash-
ing points (Y) are used to
secure the transport casters
to prevent the load from slip-
ping.
The machine may not be
operated without the cover
(A), except when the feeder
is attached.

Delivery
After reaching the installation location, the machine is carefully lowered to the
ground with hydraulic jacks. The pictures below show the locations where the hy-
draulic jacks and transport casters must be positioned on the machine frame.
The locations shown must absolutely be observed. The supporting points
for the transport casters can recognized by additional welded steel plates
Lower the machine gently with the help of hydraulic jacks in several
small steps (alternating between the main and counter spindle ends).
This is done by continuously underpinning and securing the machine
with appropriate timber.
The same procedure is basically used also for lifting the machine.
Always apply the hydraulic jacks only where indicated (Fig.).
It may be necessary to remove the guide panels near the chip
conveyor opening.
Be sure to provide for a three-point support when lifting or
lowering the machine with hydraulic jacks: two transport cast-
ers or armored rollers or supporting on the floor on one side,
hydraulic jacks on the other side.
Always lift the machine with hydraulic jacks on one narrow
side only. The other narrow side must rest on the transport
means or on the floor.
Do not lift the machine more than absolutely necessary.
As the center of gravity is not in the center of the machine, if
2 hydraulic jacks are used, each hydraulic jack should have a
capacity of 1/3 of the machine mass.
If only one hydraulic jack is used, it should have a capacity of
at least 2/3 of the machine mass.

Make sure to keep the machine in a horizontal position. The
centre of gravity is not exactly in the middle of the machine.
If necessary put down the machine again and correct the tilt
by adjusting the hooks on the beam.
Lift machine off the truck or move truck from under the suspended machine.
Place the transportation (e. g. trolley) means under the machine.
Ensure that the selected transportation equipment has suffi-
cient load bearing capacity. It must be at least equal to the
machine mass.
When using a trolley the load bearing area must be larger than
the machine area (floor area).
Lower machine slowly and carefully onto the trolley, remove the lifting equipment
and move the machine to the installation site.
