Figure 40. Counterweight Installation

BW126 and BW126L Counterweight Installation

The offset model is unstable without adequate counterweight. Use counterweight box loaded with 750 lbs. of steel.

CAUTION

Use a suitable lifting device of sufficient capac- ity. Use adequate personnel to handle heavy com- ponents.

This unit may be operated with only one wing - either right or left. With only one wing, the unit is unshielded and unstable. When electing to operate with one wing, you must install a counterweight box, available from your dealer. This box has a dual purpose: it substitutes for the shielding and for the weight of the removed wing.

The counterweight must be installed in the following sequence and will require at least two people. A floor jack or a suitable lifting device will be helpful to align the hinges when installing the hinge pin.

Refer to Figure 40.
