CAUTION
Do not lift the semitrailer with tarps, side racks, and ladder installed. This will damage tarps, side
racks, stakes, and ladder.
NOTE
Tarps, bows, side racks, and ladder should be stowed prior to lifting.
1.
Remove and stow tarps, side racks, stakes, and ladder.
2.
Stow ground boards and wheel chocks.
CAUTION
Be sure that the sling hook point is facing toward the outside of the semitrailer or damage to
equipment could result.
3.
Connect sling hooks to the four lift points (Figure 15, Item 1).
WARNING
Do not get under semitrailer while slinging operations are underway. Do not lift a loaded
semitrailer. Failure to observe this warning could result in serious injury or death to personnel and
damage to equipment.
Do not lift the semitrailer without a ground guide, using a 30 ft (9 m) guideline attached to one rear
lift point (Figure 15, Item 1). Lack of ground guide steering assistance could result in serious injury
or death to personnel and damage to equipment.
