Lifting Hoods and Pipe Cabinets

WARNING
Risk of Unit Dropping!
Placing, assembling, and/or suspending more than one
module/subassembly at a time could result in module/
subassemblies dropping and crushing technicians
which could result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage. Always place, assemble, and
suspend modules/subassemblies one at a time.

Forklifting Considerations

NOTICE
Equipment Damage!
Improper use of fork lifts on units larger than size 30
could result in equipment damage. Do not use a fork lift
on air handlers or subassemblies larger than size 30.
Trane is not responsible for equipment damage
resulting from improper fork lifting practices.
Note: Do not use a forklift on outdoor air handlers or
indoor air handlers/subassemblies larger than size
30.
For unit sizes 3-30, a forklift may be used to lift a single
section or small subassembly, provided the forks extend
under both ends of the base frame, or as indicated in
Figure 21. The forks should not contact the bottom of the
air handler. Units should only be lifted from the proper end
identified by the lifting label on the unit. A lifting crane or
other means should be used for larger units where forks
cannot extend under both base rails.

Unit Placement and Assembly

If the air handler ships in subassemblies or in individual
sections, some assembly is required, including:
• Ceiling-suspended indoor unit assembly; see
Suspension," p. 29.
• Section-to-section assembly; see
Assembly," p. 30.
WARNING
Toxic Fumes!
The unit contains polyurethane insulation. Flame could
produce toxic gas which could result in death or serious
injury. Keep open flame away from unit exterior or
interior. Do not weld or use cutting torch on the exterior
or interior of the unit.
