Lifting
•
To determine a safe lifting method, check the
weight of the unit, see
.
•
Ensure that the lifting device is suitable for the
task.
•
If necessary, plan for a hoist, crane, or forklift with
the appropriate rating to move the unit.
•
For lifting, use hoist rings on the unit, when

Locate the unit as near to the motor as possible.
Keep the motor cables as short as possible.
3.
Mount the unit vertically to a solid flat surface or
to the optional mounting plate to provide cooling
airflow.
4.
Use the slotted mounting holes on the unit for
wall mount, when provided.
