Leica CM1950 manual Transport to the Site

6. Installation

6.2Transport to the Site

•First, check if the location meets the conditions specified in "Site requirements".

•Transport the instrument to the desired location.

•Observe the following:

The instrument must be transported in an upright position or slight- ly tilted (max. 30°)!

When tilting the instrument 2 people must counterbalance from the front side to prevent the instrument from falling down and causing severe injury!

•When transporting the instrument on wheels (2) grip the cabinet only at the marked loca- tions ().

•To do so, unscrew the adjustable feet using the No. 13 open-end wrench (when subse- quently transporting the instrument on cas- tors, screw the feet back in as far as they will go). To ensure a secure upright position at its intended location, align both adjusting feet (1).

Before transport or relocation, remove the filter bag from the chamber. If you fail to do this, the filter bag will thaw, then freeze solid when the instrument is reconnected. When subsequently removed, the filter will be destroyed, causing section waste to get into the bacteria filter. (Refer to p. 26.)

When not using the extraction for a long period, tightly close the opening for the extraction hose using the silicone stop- per (5, page 28) included in the scope of delivery.
