Lifting and Tie Down Instructions

Lifting Instructions
Only qualified riggers should rig and lift the machine.
Ensure that the crane, loading surfaces, spreader bars, cables, chains and straps are of sufficient
capacity to withstand the machine weight. See the serial plate for the machine weight.
• Fully lower the platform. Be sure the deck extension is retracted and the module doors are closed and secure. Remove all
loose items from the machine.
• Determine the center of gravity of the machine.
• Attach rigging to the designated lift points only.
• For machines NOT equipped with outriggers, use spreader bars set to 96" length as shown below. Attach rigging to
the lift/tie-down points on the chassis. Route the rigging as shown below to avoid damage to the guardrails.
• For machines equipped with outriggers, use slings only. Attach the slings to the outrigger weldments as close to the
outriggers as possible. Route the rigging as shown below to avoid damage to the guardrails.
