Chassis Installation

Weight Considerations

The shipping weight of the chassis is approximately 160 pounds (72.57 kg). Please consider the following
recommendations before proceeding:
If available, use an equipment lift to lift and move the chassis during the installation process.
If no lift is available, reduce the weight according to the instructions in the Reducing the Weight of the Chassis
Prior to Installation section that follows. This reduces the weight of the chassis to approximately 125 lbs. (56.7
kg).
It is recommended that at least two people perform the installation. These individuals should be physically able
to lift and control the weight of the chassis.
When lifting any heavy object, it is important to remember to bend at the knees and lift with your legs. Bending
at the waist and lifting with your back could cause personal injury.
