responsible for using the correct machine slinging
and lifting technique.

IFTING AND HANDLING WITH CRANE
The machine must be lifted and handled with the systems
indicated in the picture. Check that the hoisting cables or
chains are homologated or of sufficient capacity, and
also check the minimum cable length. Calculate the
cable capacity considering that for each of the two sling
sections a weight about double that shown on the
identification plate of the machine has to be supported
(this is to compensate for the cable angle). Always use
the eyebolts provided by the manufacturer and always
marked with a pictogram.
ALWAYS TAKE THESE PRECAUTIONS WHEN
LIFTING THE GENERATOR:
Do not swing suspended loads.
Never leave the load unattended.
Lower the generator to the ground very slowly.
Always maintain the safety distance.
N.B. The centre of gravity of the generator
corresponds to about the centre of its geometrical
volume.
8.2.2 L
IFTING AND HANDLING WITH FORKLIFT TRUCK
Use a forklift truck with wide forks and of adequate
capacity and lift in a barycentric position (which
corresponds to about the centre of its geometrical
volume).
The trailer version cannot be lifted with a forklift.
