Your EX Series Screenless Granulator is mounted on a wooden
skid and blocked and banded to secure it for shipment. All non-
painted items subject to corrosion are coated with a quality rust
preventative, and the machine is covered with heavy-duty
polyethylene to protect it from moisture and dirt. Granulators are
normally shipped completely assembled unless the size of the
machine or an agreement for special shipping arrangements
prompts partial assembly.
If inspection after shipment has revealed no shipping damage,
unpack the unit by removing the polyethylene protective covering
and banding. Remove the envelope with the parts list, assembly
drawings, electrical schematics, and manual from the base
evacuation area.
You can now have the machine lifted from the skid. A forklift is
ideal for the purpose, but take care to properly position the forks
between the casters and the centrally mounted evacuation pipe
from the side of the machine.
! CAUTION !
Do not attempt to lift the granulator by means of any shaft or protruding member,
ESPECIALLY THE HOPPER
