Safety Information
While Morse Manufacturing Co. drum handling equipment is
engineered for safety and efficiency, a high degree of
responsibility must be placed upon the machine operator to follow
safe practices, based primarily on common sense, upon which
true safety depends.
Failure to follow the safety precautions in this manual can result
in personal injury or property damage. Observe the same
precautions as with similar machinery where carelessness in
operating or maintenance is hazardous to personnel. Carefully
read the safety precautions below and throughout this manual.
Receiving Procedures
Every Morse drum handler is inspected prior to shipping.
However, damage may be incurred during transit.
• Check for visible damage. If you choose to accept damaged
freight, always sign noting the damage on the BILL OF LADING.
• Document the damage and have the truck driver sign. We
recommend keeping a digital camera at your receiving dock
for this purpose.
• Open packages expeditiously to check the condition of the
goods. There is only a 24 hour window to notify the carrier of
any concealed damage.
• IMMEDIATELY REPORT ALL DAMAGE TO THE SHIPPING
COMPANY! Then you may contact Morse for assistance with
your freight claim.
• Morse Manufacturing will not be held responsible for any
damaged freight that is not signed for as damaged.
Delivery to non-business addresses without a loading dock result
in additional freight charges. Residential delivery fees, inside
delivery fees, re-delivery charges, and lift gate services will be
added by the truck line, and are non-negotiable.
Limited 2 Year Warranty
Morse drum handling equipment is guaranteed against defects
in workmanship or materials for TWO YEARS when used
properly within its rated capacity. Warranty does not cover wear
from normal use or damage from accident or abuse. Motors
and other purchased parts carry the warranties of their
manufacturers.
For warranty claims, contact your Morse Dealer to obtain a
return authorization number, and for return freight advice. Return
freight must be prepaid.
