Lifting cast iron sections
Care should be taken when lifting cast iron sections as they can weigth up to a few hundred kilograms and ADARAD
can confirm the weight of each individual section if required
Building and servicing the boiler/sections
When building the boiler, the section should always be built on a level base capable of supporting the full weight of
the boiler and the sections should always be supported on blocks of wood or props when positioning before final
bolting up. An unsupported section should never be left unattended.
