  WARNING 
The  counterweight  is  heavy.  Make  sure  that  the
eyebolt  and  lifting  devices  have  enough  capacity
to lift the weight. The approximate weights of the
counterweight castings are shown in Table 2.
2.  Install  a  lifting  eye  in  lift  hole  of  counterweight.
See Figure 14. Connect a crane to lifting eye and
raise crane until it holds part of weight of counter-
weight.  If  counterweight  is  equipped  with  a  tow
pin,  remove  tow  pin  and  remove  capscrew  that
holds  counterweight  to  frame. If  counterweight  is
not  equipped  with  a  tow  pin,  remove  capscrew
that holds counterweight to frame. See Figure 14.
Use crane to lift counterweight from lift truck. Put
counterweight on  floor  so that it  has  stability and
will  not  fall  over.  Take  care  not  to  damage  ex-
haust or cooling components.
