Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / Safety Cabinet Operating Instructions | | German term or phrase: Transportkufe | "Der Sicherheitsschrank ist mit einer ***Transportkufe*** versehen, um den Schrank beim Transport zu schützen. Ferner kann der Schrank mit einem Flurförderzeug, z. B. Hubwagen 1.31.005 von XYZ unterfahren werden. Bitte beachten Sie zusätzlich Punkt 2.2..
***Transportkufe*** entfernen:
· Lösen der Kontermutter an den Stellfüßen, zwischen ***Transportkufe*** und Schrank.
· Schrank von vorne oder hinten mit dem Hubwagen anheben.
· ***Transportkufe*** in Richtung Schrankmitte herausziehen.
· Der Schrank kann jetzt langsam auf die Stellfüße abgelassen werden."
From a manual for a safety cabinet. They've moved on from safety precautions to how the thing is transported. Any ideas what a Transportkufe is? Is it come kind of corrupt form of Transportkoffer? TIA for your help. |
