3.2.2 Using a Forklift
Position the Manipulator as shown in the figures below (the same posture as shipping) and
secure it onto a pallet with shipping bolts and jigs. Insert the forklift claws under the
pallet and transport the Manipulator together with the pallet. The pallet must have
enough strength to bear the weight of the Manipulator. Transporting of the Manipulator
must be performed slowly in order to avoid overturning or slippage.
