Lifting weights
See the unit nameplate for unit shipping weight. Note
that weight may vary depending on unit configuration
at the time of lifting. See page 57 for further infor-
mation regarding shipping and operating weights.
Lifting using lugs
Units are provided with lifting holes in the base frame
which accept the accessory lifting lug set as shown in
the following figure. The lugs (RH and LH) should be
inserted into the respective holes in the base frame and
turned so that the spring loaded pin engages into the
hole and the flanges on the lug lock behind the hole.
The lugs are attached to the cables/chains using shack-
les or safety hooks.

Lifting using shackles
Insert the shackles into the respective holes in the base
frame and secure from the inside.
Use spreader bars to prevent the lifting chains from
hitting the chiller. Various methods of spreader bar ar-
rangements may be used, keeping in mind the intent
is to keep the unit stable and to keep the chains from
hitting the chiller and causing damage.
Lifting Instructions are placed on a label on the chiller
and on the shipping bag.
