Technical Handbook Guide

Shipping, Transport And Storage DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS - Section 12

1) KabelSchlepp carrier systems are precision stamped, molded, extruded and assembled products and therefore must be guarded against sudden impacts, twisting and compression loads (example: stacking pallets and crates during transport) during shipment and unpacking.

2)  When unpacking and installing or when dismounting and packing a carrier system, always support the carrier system weight evenly, taking care not to bridge spans greater than 10 feet unsupported, as well as not twist or distort the carrier’s linear configuration.

3) Take care when handling carrier systems to prevent injury and product damage. Carrier systems can be cumbersome and difficult to handle due to their size, configuration and weight, which is often difficult to immediately assess by unfamiliar parties.

4) Never lift a carrier system that has been factory packed and shipped in a coiled and banded configuration (laid on its side, strapped to a pallet) by an individual link or mounting bracket. Always evenly distribute weight with a pick-up beam or rod through the center of the coiled system when lifting and/or positioning.

5) Super-duty, large or extremely long carrier systems are often shipped in segments with their ends tagged for correct and easy on-site handling, positioning and assembly. The tags should not be removed until assembly.

6) Do not store zinc plated steel carrier systems near humid or green sea (salt water) environments.

7) Avoid storing standard nylon carrier systems outdoors exposed to UV rays or exposed to cold and dry temperatures for prolonged periods below 0° C or above 85° C.
