yourself with the component and read the
Operating Instructions beforehand.

Installation
Transportation and initial installation of the
machine are described in this chapter.
2.1 Delivery
The Toolbar unit is normally delivered, fully
assembled, on a (low-bed) truck.
The machine can be lifted off with a crane,
fork-lift truck, or other suitable lifting
equipment.
When doing so, the weight, the centre of
gravity and the attachment points on the unit
are to be taken into account.
Depending on the lifting gear, attachment is
only to be at appropriate points on the frame.

The ST Toolbar unit must be lifted clear of the
ground for road transport.
