Mounting the I-26/26R on the Optional Base
1. Using a forklift or lifter, raise the I-26/26R so that its back end is tilted toward the
rear of the base.
2. Remove all six feet from the bottom of the shaker. They will not be needed for
stacking, but you may want to keep them for future use.
3. With two assistants, each holding the shaker on one side, lower the unit onto the base,
rear panel first. Slowly and gently remove the forklift or lifter and lower the front of
the unit onto the base by hand.
NOTE:
Optional handles are available to facilitate maneuvering the shaker onto the
base. See Section 9.3.7 for details.
