4.3.1 Removing the Unit from the Skid with a Forklift
Refer to Figure 4.3 on the next page.
1. Align a forklift with either the front or rear side of the unit.
• Ensure that the tines of the fork lift are locked to the widest location.
• Use the center of gravity indicators on the unit panels when determining the entry points
for the tines. Center of gravity varies per unit size and selected options.
• The tines shall be equally spaced on either side of the center of gravity indicator.
2. Insert the tines of the forklift completely under the base of the unit.
• Ensure that the tines are level, not angled in an upward direction.
• The tines are to be at a height that will allow proper clearance under the unit.
• Ensure that the tines extend beyond the opposite side of the unit.
NOTE: If these steps are not followed, damage may occur to the panels and/or base of the unit.
