Moving & Placing
Base Unit
This is an extremely heavy machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not followed. To be safe, you will need assistance and a forklift or a hoist when removing the machine from the crate. Use a chain or a lifting strap with a minimum of 1,000 lbs. lifting capacity. If the chain or lifting strap breaks, serious personal injury may occur.
