2-6 Uncrating

BP1600 Series Granulator

BP1600 Series granulators are shipped mounted on a wooden skid then blocked and banded to prevent movement. All non- painted items subject to corrosion are coated with a quality rust preventative and the machine is then covered with heavy duty polyethylene to protect it from moisture and dirt.

Sterling granulators are normally shipped completely assembled unless the size of the machine or an agreement for special shipping arrangements causes partial disassembly.

If inspection revealed no shipping damage, unpack the unit by removing the polyethylene covering and banding. For detailed uncrating information, follow the instructions listed below:

1.Remove the nails holding the box to the skid and lift the box off carefully, avoiding staples in the 1’ x 4’ wood supports. Cut steel banding.

2.Use a pry bar to remove the blocks securing the unit to the skid.

3.Insert forks between skid and granulator from the side (guard side) until they protrude beyond the opposite side of the unit. The forks must be equidistant from the centerline of the unit and the unit must be balanced on the forks.

4.Lift the unit off the skid with a fork truck. Lift slowly and only high enough to clear the skid. Use a pry bar if necessary to carefully remove the skid from the unit.

5.Lower slowly. The unit should land on its foot pads or optional casters and can then be moved into position.

6.Temporary hardware has been installed to prevent side panels from shifting in transit. Remove hardware.

Important!

Retain the crating material for reshipping the granulator in case hidden

shipping damage is found.
