Chassis and Component Lifting Guidelines

  • Before moving the device to a site, ensure that the site meets the power, environmental, and clearance requirements.

  • Before lifting or moving the device, disconnect all external cables and wires.

  • As when lifting any heavy object, ensure that your legs bear most of the weight rather than your back. Keep your knees bent and your back relatively straight. Do not twist your body as you lift. Balance the load evenly and be sure that your footing is firm.

  • Use the following lifting guidelines to lift devices and components:

    • Up to 39.7 lb (18 kg): One person.

    • From 39.7 lb (18 kg) to 70.5 lb (32 kg): Two or more people.

    • From 70.5 lb (32 kg) to 121.2 lb (55 kg): Three or more people.

    • Above 121.2 lb (55 kg): Use material handling systems (such as levers, slings, lifts, and so on). When this is not practical, engage specially trained persons or systems (such as riggers or movers).
