Lifting Indoor Units with Optional Baserail
For unit sizes 3 to 30, a forklift may be used to lift a single
section or small subassembly, provided the forks extend under
both ends of the base frame, or as indicated in the figure below.
The forks should not contact the bottom of the air handler. Units
should only be lifted from the proper end identified by the lifting
label on the unit. A lifting crane or other means should be used
for larger units where forks cannot extend under both base
rails.

Never stack the pipe cabinet or inlet hoods on the unit as
it is being lifted.

Do not attach the intake/exhaust hood or pipe cabinet to
the unit prior to lifting the unit. Doing so may damage the
equipment. Attach the hoods to the unit only after all
sections are in place.

All shipping supports and crating on the face of the
sections must be removed to permit proper fit-up and
sealing of the surfaces. Dispose of properly.
