INSTALLATION
Transporting/Lifting the Water Source Unit
Transporting / Lifting
• When lifting a unit, use lifting straps placed around the unit as
shown in Figure 10.
• Always lift a unit using properly sized lifting straps rated to
carry the unit weight. Table 37 lists net and shipping weights
for each single frame model.
• Ensure the straps are long enough to maintain a maximum of a
40° angle as shown at detail A in Figure 10.
• Use caution when using forklift to transport an unpackaged unit. Consider the unit’s center of
gravity when lifting. Protect the painted surfaces as necessary to prevent damage to the unit finish.
• Use appropriate moving equipment to safely transport each frame. Ensure moving equipment is
capable of supporting the weight of the water source unit frame. Wear protective gloves when
handing the moving equipment and frame.
• Some products include polypropylene bands around the unit for packaging. Do not use
polypropylene bands to lift the unit.
• Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children can not play with them and risk
suffocation and death.
• Lift the water source unit from the base at specified locations. Support the water source unit at a
minimum of six (6) points to avoid slippage from the rigging apparatus.
• Do not drop the unit when carrying it with a forklift.
• Use a minimum of three (3) lifting straps.
• Place a protective cloth or other soft material at the locations where the casing comes in contact
with the lifting straps to prevent damage to painted surfaces.
• Always know where the center of gravity of the water source unit is before lifting. Hoist the unit
with the center of gravity centered among the lifting straps.
