3. Transport
Lifting and hoisting work must be performed by trained
operators with certified lifting and hoisting equipment.
Before use, check the validity of these certificates and
qualifications.
For loading and unloading, only use lifting and hoisting
equipment capable for holding the loads in question.
The lifting and hoisting equipment must be stable
enough and have suitable lifting and hoisting capacity.
Loading and offloading should always be performed by
properly trained personnel.
Lift loads as described in the user manual (connection
points for lifting hooks) and observe the professional
standards.
Only use suitable containers with adequate load
bearing capacity for transport purposes. Secure the
load properly using suitable connection points and
twist locks (for the containers). When using twist locks,
secure them properly and check the locking mechanism
is working correctly.
Disconnect any power connections in advance, even if
the SHS only needs to be moved a short distance.
The equipment must be transported in a frame designed
for this purpose. This frame can be placed in a container
to provide good protection against weather influences
and give a good rigid protection. Make sure that all parts
are secured against sliding around. Refer to Figure 1 for
frame details.

2. Synchoists Support
3. Eyebolt
Place the synchoist into the transport frame as showed
in Figure 2.
1. Place the transport frame in the vertical position
using the eyebolts.
2. Lift the synchoist from the rear clevis eye and insert
it into the frame in the vertical position.
Figure 2: SHAS Frame Insertion
Refer to the following sequence of assembly to fix the
synchoist into the structure (see Figure 3):
1. Screw one connection bolt to the bottom eyebolt
hole of the synchoist.
2. Insert the connection bolt into the synchoist
support through the hole.
3. Move the synchoist forward until the connection
bolt fits into the narrowing of the support to prevent
it from moving during transport.
4. Repeat the same procedure with the other
synchoist support.
5. Once the synchoist is completelly attached, place
the structure horizontally for transport.
