Pre-Assembling the Pick-Up Weight

When performing the work described below, comply with the safety instructions.

Equipment used to raise and transport the weight must be capable of bearing at least 900 kg (2000 lb).

Use approved lifting equipment only.

Observe safety rules. Do not stand under suspended loads.

To facilitate the transport of the weight, it is a good idea to pre-assemble it on a pallet. Make sure the bearing weight of the pallet is sufficient.
