Loading System MkII Transportation

Transportation
If there is a need to move the Loading System MkII once the unit is
assembled and loaded with ballast, it is important that it is handled the correct
way to prevent lifting accidents.
1. Use a fork lift truck, place the forks underneath the Base with the forks as
wide as possible, see Figure 31. Lift the unit slowly and make sure that
no part on the Loading System MkII might be obstructed.
A fully loaded Loading System MkII weighs approximately 2000 kg, it
is important that a lifting device with a capacity exceeding that value
is used.
2. Lift the unit and adjust the feet to their fully inserted position to prevent
damage during movement
3. Make sure the unit is lifted high enough to pass any obstacle in the
planned route and move it to the new location. Lower the unit to the
ground and make sure it is level by adjusting the feet into the desired
position. When Loading System MkII is level, remove the fork lift and
execute the safety check over again.
A complete Loading System MkII unit shall not under any
circumstances be lifted with a crane and/or slings! Only with forks
placed under the base!
