UNITS WITHOUT BASE RAIL — If accessory rigging
brackets are to be used for rigging, install them as follows:
Secure screws and paint protectors solidly against unit
basepan to hold lifting brackets in position.
Never use lifting brackets when the temperature is be-
low −10 F.
Never exceed 200 lbs per bracket of lifting force.
Never use lifting brackets for lifting other models of air-
conditioning units.
Lifting point should be directly over the unit center of
gravity.
1. Position brackets as close to the corners of unit as pos-
sible. Be sure brackets are well outside of center of grav-
ity. (See Fig. 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12.).
2. Position paint protectors and foam strips between screws
and painted surface of unit. Tighten screws until they make
contact with the paint protectors.
3. Secure device or hook of sufficient strength to hole in bracket
as shown in detail ‘‘A’’ of Fig. 12.
4. If wood top is available, use it for a spreader bar to pre-
vent straps from damaging unit. If wood top is not avail-
able, use spreader bars of sufficient length.
