Introduction
Equipment handling
The units may be supplied as spare parts, or as parts of a
delivery.
Transportation
Unless otherwise stated in the accompanying documentation,
electronic, electro-mechanical and mechanical units supplied by
Simrad can be transported using all methods approved for
delicate equipment; (by road, rail, air or sea). The units are to be
transported in accordance with general or specific instructions
for the appropriate unit(s), using pallets, transport cases, or
carton boxes as appropriate.
Note:
Special local restrictions concerning air transportation may be
applied to units containing certain types of batteries. The units
should be checked and the regulations investigated by the
packer/shipper before the unit is dispatched.
All local transportation must be carried out according to the
same specifications as for the initial delivery. In general, all
units must be handled with care. The carton or case containing
the equipment must be kept dry at all times, and must be
sheltered from the weather. It must not be subjected to shocks,
excessive vibration or other rough handling.
The carton or case will normally be marked with text or symbols
indicating which way up it is to be placed. Follow any
instructions given and ensure the case is always placed with its
“top” uppermost.
The carton or case must not be used for any purpose for which it
was not intended (step, table, etc.), and in the absence of other
information, no other cartons or cases must be stacked on top of
it.
Lifting
A heavy crate will normally be marked with its weight, and the
weights of other cartons or crates will normally be entered on
the packing list.
• Always check the weight of a crate before attempting to lift
it.
• Always use lifting apparatus that is certified for the load.
