5 MACHINE DELIVERY During transportation & storage the machine must not be subject to excessive vibration or shock, or to extreme temperature or humidity. The temperature must be within the range -25 C to +55 C. Condensation should be avoided. See the Operators Safety manual for operating conditions. If you have selected to have your machine delivered by Hardinge there are a number of points upon which we need information. NOTE :- If access is difficult, please advise us whereupon you will be contacted in order that arrangements for a visit from a representative of our haulers can be made. They will decide the most appropriate method of accessing your plant. Please use the following information to assess the suitability of our transport. Do not hesitate to call if in doubt. Ask for the Machine Order Department. The machine will be delivered on a crane lorry by our haulers who are contracted to deliver and off-load at the nearest point of access at your premises, and then install the machine inside your premises. The vehicle specification is as follows:- Overall length including cab (36ft) 11.0m Length of deck (24ft) 7.3m Width of deck (8ft) 2.4m Height of deck (4.5ft) 1.4m Overall height of crane (MIN) 4.1m NOTE :- When operating the vehicle crane, its hydraulic legs will be extended to steady the lift. This will increase the width by an additional (4ft) 1.2m. To determine the total loaded height of the vehicle, check the above information together with the overall dimensions of your machine illustrated in this document. It is in everyone s interest to ensure that the off-loading is completely possible. We do urge you to check carefully and to discuss with us areas of doubt. If on arrival our vehicle is unable to off-load the machine, delays and additional charges could arise. Lifting Equipment As the machine is to be lifted by Fork Truck it is recommended that the minimum capacity be 10,000kg with a minimum tine length of 1,200mm, except for the GX 1300/1600 series machine for which it is recommended that the minimum capacity be 15,000kg with a minimum tine length of 2,400mm.

6 INSTALLATION To assist you the following points should be carefully considered. Check the packing list as soon as you are able to ensure that all items have been delivered. If there are shortages call us, ask for the Machine Order Department. The following information is provided for your guidance. 1. Foundation Requirements A solid foundation is required to bear the machine weight. Any friable areas should be made good using recognized building construction techniques. If doubt exists, consult your building architect. Do not locate the machine near equipment that causes vibration. Poor cutting or damage to the control may result from vibration transmitted to the machine. 2. Uncrating (where necessary) Carefully remove the outer casing, internal braces and skids so that the machine is not damaged in any way. Should damage have occurred in transit inform: i) The haulage contractor ii) iii) The railways and/or shippers, or Local agent and state the full extent of the damage. Retain all the packing materials until the Insurance Company s assessor has inspected the machine. 3. Leveling Procedure a) Make sure the location of the machine is exactly where you need it to be. Ensure allowance for access for operation, cleaning and maintenance is provided. See the installation dimensional drawing for minimum clearances. See pages 31 ~ 41 for machine outline drawings b) Locate the floor pads which are packed with the associate kit and position them on the floor under each jack bolt. When satisfied lower the machine gently onto the pre-located pads. Ensure jack bolts are screwed down to provide a 15 to 20mm gap from the underside of the base casting to the floor. c) If you use skates then employ the jack bolts with suitable support packing to raise the machine enough to remove the skates and finally set onto the floor pads.

17 GROUNDING THE MACHINE If an earth ground is to be installed, the customer must supply and install the ground rod, ground rod clamp, and ground conductor according to all applicable electrical codes. a) All GX machines must be grounded in order to protect personnel and the machine from electrical hazards. Grounding must be in accordance with the standards for electrical equipment. b) Ideally, the grounding point should be as close as possible to the machine. c) A qualified electrician must carry out the grounding work, otherwise serious injury, death, or accidents involving machine damage could result. d) The machine must be grounded in one of the following ways: 1) Independent grounding 2) Common grounding Regardless of the type of grounding system used, the earth loop impedance of the supply, which connects the machine to ground/earth, must not exceed 1 ohm. Page 17

18 e) Never ground the machine in the manner shown in the illustration below. No more than one grounding conductor wire can be connected to a single terminal. If the grounding conductors are connected in the manner shown in the illustration above, a faulty connection at one of the terminals could cause grounding current to be fed back to the machine, resulting in serious accidents. NOTE:- We are unable to assist with electrical cable selection as this depends upon your particular site. Your qualified electrical engineer will be able to calculate the correct needs from the power supply requirement chart. Once the electrical and air supplies are provided make the connection to the machine. The delivery dimensional drawing gives details of input locations. Page 18

Page 19

20 ELECTRICAL POWER CONNECTION The connection of the electrical supply to the machine must comply with all the relevant local regulations of the country where the machine is being installed. A qualified electrician must carry out the connection of the mains electrical supply to the machine. Line Configuration The GX model range is designed to operate from a 3-phase AC incoming power source with an earth star point, as shown in Fig A for a TN Network. This incoming line short circuit current must be at least 2kA. Due to the type of drive systems employed in the machine, it is not recommended to use Residual-Current Devices (RCDs) in the machine s electrical supply. The reason for this limitation is that RCDs measure the leakage currents by checking that the sum of all supply phases totals zero. In the case of the drive systems fitted in XR machines, during the operation of the machine there is regeneration of power back to the supply, and the sum zero is not maintained, potentially causing the RCD to trip. Recommended Line Configuration TN Network Fig A In other cases, such as those examples shown in figures B & C, an RCD Type B is required to be fitted to the machine to meet the requirements of EN : b) & c). This will be at extra cost. Details of the electrical supply should be supplied to your local Hardinge agent for further advice. Other Incoming Line Configurations Fig B TT Network Fig C IT Network If you have any doubts concerning your supply suitability please discuss this with your Hardinge Bridgeport Service Engineer.

48 The figures quoted are emission levels and are not necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a correlation between emission and exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine whether or not further precautions are required. Factors that influence the actual level of exposure in the workplace include characteristics of the work room, and the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the number of machines and other adjacent processes. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country to country. However, the information given above will enable the user of the machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard risk.
