1. Hoisting
It can be seen from the following picture how the mixing machine is hoisted by a traveling crane. The rope must be capable of bearing the weight of equipment, and too short a rope is not usable. The lifting ears for hoisting are provided.



2. Transportation
When the mixing machinery is to be delivered out of the manufacturer’s plant, it can be decided according to the practical conditions whether a packing case should be used or not. If the packing case is not used, rainproof facilities should be provided and it is necessary to prevent the equipment from collision and overturning.
If the packing case is used, the whole machine and accessories should be firmly fixed inside the case, and a certain distance between the machine and the walls of the case should be maintained to avoid collision or damage during transportation. If the equipment exceeds the height limit, it should be packed in parts.

3. Storage
When the paddle mixer is to be stored for a long time, it is necessary to put it in a ventilated, dry, shady and cool place with rainproof and damp-proof facilities. The exposed surfaces without paint should be coated by antirust oil.
