Raise the platform (by hoist, overhead gantry crane, fork lift etc.) and position it above the lift arms. Align the platform hands with 
the holes in the lift arms, and mount the pins in the same way as originally supplied on the platform. [Figure 10.3 - Figure 10.4] 

 

Tilt the platform open to 45° angle. Align the hole in the tilt cylinders with the hole in the platform hands by means of the electrical 
controls, or manually [see procedure above]. Mount the pins and rollers in the same way as originally supplied on the platform 
[Figure 10.3 - Figure 10.4].
