Pre-Installation
Rigging and Handling
Before preparing the unit for lifting, estimate the approximate center of gravity for lifting safety.
Because of placement of internal components, the unit weight may be unevenly distributed, with
more weight in the coil area. Approximate unit weights are given in “Dimensions and Weights,”
p. 15. Also, you may reference the unit weight on the unit nameplate.
Before hoisting the unit into position, use a proper rigging method such as straps, slings, or
spreader bars for protection and safety. Always test-lift the unit to determine the exact unit balance
and stability before hoisting it to the installation location.
ƽ WARNING
Improper Unit Lift!
Test lift unit approximately 24 inches to verify proper center of gravity lift point. To avoid
dropping of unit, reposition lifting point if unit is not level. Failure to properly lift unit could
result in death or serious injury or possible equipment or property-only damage.
Unit Handling Procedure
1. Position rigging sling under wood skid using spreader bars to avoid unit damage.
2. Use a forklift with caution to prevent unit damage. The fork length must be at least 68 inches
long to safely fork the unit from front or back.
3. The unit center of gravity will fall within the center of gravity block at various locations
depending on unit options.
4. See unit nameplate for unit weight.
Unit Location Recommendations
When selecting and preparing the unit installation location, consider the following
recommendations.
