Wipe clean all contact surfaces on parallel
arm, lower arm and frame.

CAUTION
The lower arm complete weighs 600 kg.

to the lower arm with an Endless ratchet
lashing belt to prevent the parallel arm from
falling down uncontrolled, when the lower

sembly and to an overhead crane (or simil-
ar).
Attach the roundsling through the hole in
the upper end of the lower arm.
