6.1 Unloading Vortek Hoists

Each Vortek hoist crate has a label that identifies hoist type and position and whether the crate
contains the project packet, project drawings, this manual, the Rigging System Commissioning Signoff

WARNING:
The first lifting point is from the Motor End
104 cm (41") long, a maximum of 22 cm (8-1/2") wide and 5 cm (2") thick to use this location.
