Forklift Trucks
The forks must only be applied under
the unit base frame and not against
the unit base frame. The lift point
should be as near as possible to the
centre of gravity (see Figures 3 and 4).
In the case of larger units the use of
several forklift trucks may be required.
Roller Movement
Units fitted with base frames may be
moved on roller trolley or tubular rollers
(see Figure 5).
