  • when placed lying in the back of a truck will need a soft substrate, even in cases where the body protected with foam pads or a thick cloth, it will be an additional shock absorber with shaking at potholes;
  • Some models are not safe to put on its back or side, in units Zanussi filler valve is located close to the counterweight in such a position, the valve is likely to be broken;
