The supporting I-beams should be level to within 1.5mm in 1m before setting the unit. Do not level
the unit by shimming between the bottom flange and the beams as this will not provide proper
longitudinal support.
NOTE: Consult the latest version of the IBC code for required steel support layout and structural
design.

Rigging the Basin/Fan Section — Standard Lift
U-bolts or similar lifting points are located in the basin/fan section for lifting and final positioning
purposes as shown below in Figures 2 and 3. Units with lengths up to 6m have 4 total lift points.
Units with lengths over 6m long units have either 6 or 8 lift points. See Table 2 for the minimum
“H” dimensions for rigging the basin/fan assembly. Always use safety slings for extended lifts or
where any hazard exits. See the “Extended Lifts” section in this bulletin.
NOTE: Use all of the U-bolts or lift points provided for lifting.
