LIFTING & HANDLING 

 

IMPORTANT: Always prepare a Lifting Plan/Risk Assessment. 

By  Forklift / Tele-handler 

 

Each EASYCUBE is fitted with forklift pockets which are designed to allow the 

EASYCUBE to be raised by a forklift/tele-handler. The EASYCUBE can be lifted 

from both the front and the back.  

 

It is important that the total gross weight of the EASYCUBE is not more than 

half (50%) of the forklift’s maximum SWL. Ensure that the forklift’s forks are 

set to the correct width for the EASYCUBE’s fork pockets 

WARNING 

Do not allow anyone under the raised load at any time or for any 

reason.

 

 

Positioning 

 

You should make sure that both supplying vehicle and receiving vehicle have 

safe and easy access to the EASYCUBE 

 

The position should be selected where the unit  will be protected from 

accidental impact 

 

Be aware of the location of underground services, such as drains, and manhole 

covers 

 

You must also consider the ground surface and make sure it can support the 

weight of the EASYCUBE, its contents when full and any stored equipment such 

as pumps, without the risk of subsidence. It should be positioned on smooth 

and level ground  

 

Allow for access that may be required by the emergency services should it 

become necessary
