Checklist for renting

• is the rented equipment in line with legal requirements and safety regulations?
• Is your rental partner aware about safety procedures applicable to your industry?
• Should your operators be informed about the temporary setup and is modification necessary to your safety procedures?

Talk to your rental partner for help to prepare the necessary documentation.

What is the size of the machines and is there enough space for the set-up of the equipment?

Contact your rental company to plan the installation and if possible get a draft installation proposal.

• Are you specific enough about the air quality that is required?
• Does your process require oil-free air to guarantee the quality of the end-product and production safety?
• Or is dry air needed?

Don’t forget to mention these specifications when submitting your needs towards the rental companies you are contacting.

some preventive maintenance is mandatory for equipment to function properly, but:

• Do you have the time and staff to follow this up?
• Will you think about the maintenance on time?
• Who will be responsible physically and financially?

Imagine your equipment is not working properly? Do you have resources like staff, time allowance or knowledge about that specific machine or is your rental company available 24/7?

Both for planned and/or unplanned outages, the best resource to use from a provider will be their technicians who are extensively trained to help you.

Have you ever bought something and used it only to find out months later that the product has a feature or benefit you never knew about?

This is especially frustrating when renting a product because you have a certain amount of time for your project and you want to ensure full benefits are being utilized for maximum efficiency and performance.

Consider training on-site!
