DANGER
Concrete blocks weight 740 lbs. each. Stay clear of them while
lifting them into place. Hands and fingers can easily become
pinched by the blocks or the blocks could shift suddenly or fall
causing serious bodily injury or death.
Mounting 2 Concrete Blocks
1. Position concrete blocks (#1 & #3) onto the platform
ends. Make sure they are against the square tubes
on the ends and resting fully on the platform floor.
2. Place a spacer or spacers between the blocks to
keep then from shifting to one side. (Spacer(s)
provided by customer)

IMPORTANT: Use equipment capable of lifting a
minimum of 800 lbs. Lift one concrete block at a time
using lifting rods “B” to raise and lower the blocks
onto the platform frame.
NOTE: Remove SMV sign (#4) from its mounting
socket to prevent hitting the sign while installing the
concrete blocks. Replace SMV sign after the blocks
are installed.
Mounting 3 Concrete Blocks
1. Position concrete block (#1) onto the platform against
the left end. Make sure it is against the square tube
on that end and is resting fully on the platform floor.
2. Position the middle concrete block (#2) centered on
the platform frame.
• AR2596: The center block should be approximately
3 3/8" from the first block and resting fully on the
platform.
• AR2510: The center block should be approximately
15 3/8" from the first block and resting fully on the
platform.
3. Position concrete block (#3) onto the platform against
the right end. Make sure it is against the square tube
on that end and is resting fully on the platform floor.
