Transportation companies are responsible for shipment from the time that it is received by them until it is delivered. All shipments leaving our plant have been carefully inspected and loaded on the carrier s vehicle. If a shipment arrives with the crating or packaging damaged, have the driver note the condition on the bill of lading and inspect the contents immediately for concealed damage. Due to the crate sizes and number of components HEMCO recommends that with any crate damage, even minor, that the bill of lading be signed for noting crate damage pending further inspection for concealed product damage If the equipment has been damaged in transit, immediately notify and fi le a claim with the carrier. Do not return to HEMCO. If this procedure is not followed, the carrier will reject the claim and the consignee will suffer the loss. Please notify HEMCO so that we may help you in anyway possible with evaluation, repair, replacement, and valuation of the damage that has occurred.

Handle all contents with care, some parts may be sharp. 18 3

4 Deliver components to erection site and segregate. Note identifi cation markings on each panel and inside aluminum extrusions. Note: Insertion of the wall panels into the base may be aided by utilizing a thin flexible putty or spackling knife to guide the panel into the track. Note: Be very careful as sub-assemblies and wall sections can be very heavy, particularly the basin and the rear wall section. Use dollies or mechanical means to carry items over any distance. Orient basin so that the front is oriented to suit the customer s requirement. Note: left and right would be determined by facing front of enclosure and the drawing set. Remove banding holding grating into recess of the basin and the wood protecting the aluminum extrusions. Be sure wall panels are seated fully into the structural channels and plumb and square. Secure with provided #8 or #10 sheet metal screws. Utilized #8 screws fi rst, however, due to pre-assembly the #8 screw may strip or may not bite then utilize the #10 screw. NOTE: Some pictures shown are from different but similar style projects. NOTE: Quick ratchet bar clamps to stepladder may be used to partially support the initial panel until other panels can be permanently secured. The Fume Hood is often the primary control device for protecting laboratory workers when working with toxic and/or flammable chemicals. OSHA s Laboratory Standard (29 CF ) requires that fume hoods be maintained and function properly when used. Before using the Fume Hood: Make sure that you understand the operation of the hood enclosure. You should be trained to use it properly. Know the hazards of the chemical you are working with; refer to the chemical (MSDS) Material Data Safety Sheet if you are unsure. Ensure that the exhaust system is turned on for operation. Make sure that the doors are closed for operation. The hinged doors are open only when equipment is being set up or when samples are being loaded. When using the Fume Hood: Do not walk in or put your head inside the vertical plane of the hood door opening when fumes are present. Use appropriate safety protection. Laboratory Safety for Chemical Fume Hoods Be sure that nothing blocks the airfl ow through the baffl es or through the air inlet grills. Elevate large equipment above the fl oor to allow air to fl ow underneath. Keep all materials inside the hood at least (8) inches from the door opening. When not working in the hood, or when a process is in operation, keep the doors closed. Do not permanently store chemicals inside the hood. Promptly report any hood that is not functioning properly to your supervisor. The doors should be closed and the hood tagged and taken out of service until repairs can be completed. When using extremely hazardous chemicals, understand your laboratory s action plan in case an emergency. Wipe up spills immediately. Minimize drafts and turbulence in front of the hood. Routinely validate airfl ow. 4 17
