The Vestil CA-60-6 Manual Carousel is designed for versatile placement. Ensure the chosen surface is level, stable, and capable of supporting the carousel's weight (81 lbs) plus the maximum load capacity (6000 lbs).

1. Unpack the carousel and inspect for any shipping damage.
2. Choose a suitable location: on an existing workbench, a scissor table, or directly on a sturdy floor.
3. Place the carousel firmly on the desired surface. No assembly is typically required for this unit.
4. Verify that the carousel rotates freely and smoothly before placing any load on it.

4. Operating Instructions

The Vestil CA-60-6 is a manual carousel, meaning its rotation is controlled by operator effort. Follow these guidelines for safe and efficient operation:

• Loading: Carefully place items onto the top surface of the carousel, ensuring the load is centered and does not exceed the 6000 lbs capacity. Distribute weight evenly to maintain stability.
• Rotation: To rotate the carousel, apply gentle, steady force to the edge of the top ring. The internal roller bearings and guide rollers will facilitate smooth 360-degree rotation.
• Unloading: Rotate the carousel as needed to access items for unloading. Remove items carefully, maintaining balance.
• Safety: Always be aware of pinch points during rotation. Do not attempt to rotate the carousel with excessive force or if it is overloaded.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Vestil CA-60-6 Manual Carousel:

• Cleaning: Keep the carousel's surfaces clean and free of debris, especially around the rotating rings and bearings. Use a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the roller bearings and guide rollers for any signs of wear, damage, or obstruction. Ensure the steel rings remain flat and aligned.
• Lubrication: The internal roller bearings are sealed for long-lasting use and typically do not require additional lubrication. If rotation becomes stiff over time, consult a qualified technician or Vestil support.
• Storage: If storing the carousel for an extended period, keep it in a dry, clean environment to prevent corrosion.
