OPERATION MANUAL
2.3 LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS
On the day that the machine arrives, make sure that a crane with sufficient capacity is available
to unload the machine from the vehicle. Ensure access to the chosen site is clear and that doors
and ceilings are sufficiently high and wide enough to receive the machine.
To handle the machine, the slings should be positioned so the machine is level when lifted.
When using slings please take note of the sling angle and the loads that apply
When the slings are at a 45° angle then each sling is
carrying the equivalent of 50% of load weight. (Fig.2.1).
When the slings are at a 90° angle then each sling will
have a weight equal to 75% of the load on each sling.
(Fig 2.2)
Note! The manufacturer recommends not to exceed 90°
angle

The machine is supplied with lifting points that are
designed to lift the machine safely. (Fig.2.3)
When lifting the machine only certified lifting slings
should be used.
Make sure that when lifting, the machine is level and
will not tip over.
Check that the lifting slings do not interfere with the
hydraulic pipes or electrical conduits.
Failure to follow these instructions could cause damage
to the machine
NOTE:
Only people with rigging qualifications should
be used to direct the lifting of this machine.
