3.3.5 Lift and Move Mill
WARNING! Transport and Li Hazard: The transport, liing, and moving of PCNC mill should be
done by qualied professionals. Failure to do so may result in mill damage, serious injury or death.
3.3.5.1 Remove Mill from Pallet
The mill is secured to the shipping pallet with four bolts. Before aempng to li mill, use wrench to
remove nuts holding mill to pallet. This allows mill to be separated from shipping pallet when liing.
3.3.5.2 Lifting Bar Kit
The preferred method for liing the
mill is from above, using the Liing
Bar Kit (PN 31446), as shown in Figure
3.5; use this method with either a
forkli or engine hoist. The single
Eye Bolt on the top of the column is
suitable for liing the enre weight
of the mill. However, it is recommend
that the Liing Bar Kit be used (see
Figure 3.5 and Figure 3.6). Refer to
documentaon that ships with Liing
Bar Kit for more informaon on use.
Do not aempt to li mill from above
using any other method. If using an
engine hoist, refer to the following
table to determine the minimum
distance necessary to straddle stand
between hoist legs.

It is also possible to li the mill from below by inserng steel bars into two sets of opposing 7/8”

should be made of solid steel. Do not use hollow pipe to li mill.
