The lifting crane and all accessory devices (braces, cables, bars) must be suitable sized for
the load to be lifted. For the weight of the appliance, consult Table 3.1 GS HT/LT technical

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage occurring during the
installation of the appliance.

MOUNTING BASE
Always place the appliance on a levelled flat surface made of fireproof material and able
to support the weight of the appliance.
If a horizontal support base is unavailable (see also "SUPPORTS and LEVELLING" below), it
is necessary to create a flat level base in concrete which is larger than the dimensions of
the base of the appliance by at least 100-150 mm on each side.
The dimensions and weight of the appliance are given in Table 3.1 GS HT/LT technical
data → 12 and in Table 3.2 WS technical data → 13.
Although the appliance produces only moderate vibrations, the use of anti-vibration
supports (available as accessories, see SECTION 8 ACCESSORIES → 81) is especially rec-
ommended in cases in which resonance phenomena may occur.
Moreover, it is advisable to use flexible connections (anti-vibration joints) between the
appliance and the hydraulic and gas supply pipes.
SUPPORTS AND LEVELLING
The appliance must be correctly levelled by placing a spirit level on the upper part.
If necessary, level the appliance with metal shimming; do not use wooden spacers as
these deteriorate quickly.
CLEARANCES AND WARNINGS
Position the appliance so as to maintain minimum clearances from combustible sur-
faces, walls or other appliances, as illustrated in Figure 5.2 Clearances → 28.
