Getting ready for a tech

[Prosperi-Tees]

When you guys get in crated equipment such as an auto do you tear into the crates and place the machine where you want it or do you let the tech handle everything?

i would ask the tech what he wants you to do.

On new equipment I wouldn't touch a thing.

On used equipment, I would tear it all apart and lay everything out so you can see if anything is broken or missing.

That's me though.

Yeah it is used so I am itching to get into it and make sure everything is accounted for, just wanted to make sure that was ok, I guess it is since its mine now lol.

Exactly but this thing is crated like it will survive a war lol!

From my experience tech's are not interested in having to uncrate and position machines unless that was arranged during time of purchase. We have only had techs come to install new equipment and always have machine in place with electrical and air ran to machine. Your paying high dollar for a tech compared to someone who could uncrate and position the machine so I'd suggest get as much ready for him so there's more time for machine testing once up and running.

the machine should be uncrated and in position with power and air nearby

Perfect. That's what will be done then. Still have to do some moving around and electrical and duct work yet.
