Note
The center of gravity of the cabinet is specified in the dimension drawing. The load carrying 
capacity of the hoisting gear must be adequate for the weight specified in the dimension 
drawing.
Transport using lifting rails
WARNING
Inadequately dimensioned lifting rods
Inadequately 
dimensioned lifting rods are liable to bend or break. The drive could drop off the 
crane. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
Use suitable lifting rods for transporting. The weight of the cabinet is indicated on the rating 
plate.
If the cabinets/transport units are equipped with lifting rails, then proceed as follows:
1.
If there are several holes, select which holes to use based on the center of gravity.
2. Push the lifting rods through the holes.
3. Place the sling ropes on the lifting rods so they are close to the cabinet. Secure the ends 
of the lifting rods using the splint. 
Figure 3-5 Securing the lifting rods
4.
To lift the transport unit, use single sling ropes or two ropes with a cross stitch. Attach the 
crane rope to the lifting rods so it is close to the cabinet.
5. Lift the cabinet. Avoid shifting the center of gravity or distorting or damaging the cabinet. 
When suspended, the cabinet must be parallel to the ground.
