Transporting Work Platform
By Forklift
NOTE: Forklifting is for transporting only.
See specifications for weight of work
platform and be certain that forklift is of
adequate capacity to lift platform.
Forklift from the rear of the machine using the
forklift pockets provided. If necessary, the ma-
chine may be forklifted from the side by lifting
under the Chassis Modules.
By Crane
1. Secure straps to Chassis Lifting Lugs only
(Figure 5 & 6).
By Truck
1. Maneuver the work platform into transport
position and chock wheels.
2. Secure the work platform to the transport
vehicle with chains or straps of adequate load
capacity attached to the chassis tie down lugs
(Figure 5 & 6).
Front tie down lugs are not to be used to lift
work platform.
Overtightening of chains or straps through
tie down lugs may result in damage to work
platform.
