Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I know if my paper cutter is too large or too heavy to move on my own?

You can determine this by reviewing the manufacturer’s weight specifications for your machine and comparing them to your forklift’s lifting capacity, ensuring that the equipment you use is rated to handle the paper cutter safely without risk of damage or injury.

Q: What preparatory steps should I take before the Colter & Peterson team arrives?

It is important to clear any areas in and around where the team will be working, making sure that pathways are unobstructed and that the site is safe for both the technicians and any necessary equipment.
