Unpacking
Due to the size and weight of the
Post Driver, two people are required
for the assembly procedures.
The Post Driver is shipped in several sections:
the driving ram assembly, base plate
assembly, short channel bracket, hose and
valve carton, safety arm carton, and on model
HD-10-H, the tilt cylinder carton.
Before starting the unpacking
procedure, make sure the
overhead lifting device or material
handling device (forklift) has
adequate lifting capacity. Follow all safety
recommendations when unpacking the Post
Driver. Some components are heavy and
can cause serious injury or death if not
adequately supported during removal and
assembly.
For ease of assembly, unload the Post Driver
components in the area where they will be
assembled. Choose a large, hard surface
area that can safely support the weight of the
assembled Post Driver and is accessible by
the machine it will be mounted on.
