4.5.1 Using a crane to lift a transport unit or the drive by the base frame
Refer to Fig. 4-1 and Fig. 4-2 when following these ABB recommendations:
• Use a lift frame or a lift spreader with the crane.
• If a lift frame or lift spreader is not available, make sure that the
slope angle is a maximum of 15° (see Fig. 4-2).
• Use lifting equipment (eg, web slings, chain slings, round slings,
safety hooks, shackles) that corresponds to the weight that is to
be lifted.
• Attach the slings to the lifting brackets at the base frame.
• To prevent the drive or transport unit from crashing if one sling
tears, fasten an extra sling around the cabinet for stabilization.
• Use appropriate safety hooks or shackles to attach a sling.
• Do not pass a sling through the hole of the bracket.
• If the slings are too close to the cabinet, protect the edges and the
door handles or levers.
• Lift the drive or a transport unit slowly and steadily to the required
clearance height, maintaining it in upright position.
• Check the horizontal position and reposition the slings if necessary.
