Lifting & Transport Precautions
WARNING
Crush hazard. Injury may result if the
Ho-Pac shifts or falls. Do not lift the Ho-
Pac by the mounting pins or whip hose.
Recommended lift points are identified
with the HOOK symbol. Lifting devices
must safely carry the loads to which they
will be subjected. Lift away from people.
Do not enter the danger zone while the
attachment is being lifted.
CAUTION
Crush injury. Keep hands and feet clear
of crush points. Always use sufficient
blocking to avoid accidental or sudden
movement of the attachment.

See Technical Data Section for the weight of the
work tool.

independently of the carrier
1. Remove all loose debris from attachment.
2. If the swivel assembly is installed, lock swivel
position with bolt.
3. Follow removal instructions in Section 7.

Observe the following storage preparations.
Do not drain oil unless fluid degradation warrants
change. Keep the motor full of oil to protect
internal components.
Seal hydraulic connections to protect against
contamination
Store in upright position
Support the mounting frame with blocks to
minimize permanent sag in spring mounts.
Protect rubber components such as spring
mounts and hoses from exposure to direct
sunlight to reduce aging effects
Avoid wet or damp conditions to minimize rust
