1. Application of the lifter to the load and adjustment of the lifts,
if any, that adapts it to various sizes or kinds of loads.
2. Instruction in any special operation or precaution.
3. Condition of the load itself, required for operation of the
lifting kit, such as balance, temperature, etc.
Follow all applicable safety codes. Wear safety shoes and work
gloves.
— Never exceed 200 lbs. per bracket lifting force.
— Accessory lifting kit is only to be used with Small
Packaged units which have a composite base pan with
molded hand holds.
— Never stand beneath rigged units or lift over people.
— Lifting point should be directly over the center of gravity
for the unit.
— A dropped unit could cause serious injury or death.
INSPECTION — Prior to initial use, and at monthly intervals, all
rigging brackets and straps should be visually inspected for any
damage, evidence of wear, structural deformation, or cracks.
Particular attention should be paid to excessive wear at hoist
hooking points and load support areas. Brackets or straps showing
any kind of wear in these areas must not be used and should be
discarded.
INSTALLATION:
1. Position the lifting bracket assembly around the base of the
unit. Leave the top shipping skid on the unit to act as a
spreader bar. Be sure the strap does not twist.
2. Place each of the four (4) metal lifting brackets into the
handholds in the composite pan.
3. Tighten the ratchet strap until tight. Lifting brackets should be
secure in the handholds.
4. Attach the clevis or hook of sufficient strength to hole in the
lifting bracket as shown in Fig. 8.
5. Attach safety straps directly to the field supplied rigging straps
or clevis clip. Do not attach the safety straps to the lifting
brackets.
6. Use the top of the unit as a spreader bar to prevent the rigging
straps from damaging the unit. If the wood top is not available,
use a spreader bar of sufficient length to not damage the unit.
