Moving the Unit
There may be various ways and means of moving the unit
from the point of unpacking to the final location of installation
depending on available resources and equipment. The
following steps assume the unit has been successfully
unpacked and moved to a point directly in front of the bench
onto which it will be set. It also assumes the only way to lift the
unit is manually from the floor to the bench.
Lifting the Unit
It is recommended that at least 5 people, each able to lift 55
lbs. should be used to lift the unit from floor level to the surface
of the bench. The following steps outline a process that should
minimize the amount of time and effort required to lift the unit.
For reference, the unit weighs approximately 260 lbs. (118 kg).
Note: For illustrative purposes, the following photos contain an
incomplete CD14 Tester.
Safety First
All who are lifting should lift with their legs, not their back.
1. The unit is positioned on the floor perpendicular to
the bench it will be placed on.
2. A person lifts from each of the 4 handles.
3. A fifth person stabilizing the unit at the mast.
Caution: The rear side of the unit is the heavier side.
Those lifting from the front should not lift faster than
those on the rear to avoid shifting the weight to the
rear and making the unit unstable during lifting.
