Transportation and Shipping
The ReelRover center of mass should always be along the centerline of the reel; however, the center of
gravity may vary according to the wire and how it is loaded. This must be taken into consideration when
the ReelRover is moved, loaded onto and unloaded from a vehicle, and while being transported.
WARNING : ONLY LIFT REELROVER USING UPPER OR LOWER FORKLIFT POCKETS. LIFTING
THE REELROVER WITH FORKS BELOW THE FRAME OR LULL ADAPTER, OR IN ANY MANNER
OTHER THAN WITH THE FORKS IN THE FRAME OR ADAPTER POCKETS, IS EXTREMELY
DANGEROUS AND MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.
The only safe, approved method to lift ReelRover is with a forklift, and the forks must be positioned in the
forklift tubes designed into the frame as shown in Figures 52 and 53, or into the lull adapter attached
beneath the frame shown in Figure 52.
WARNING : DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE A STRAP OR CHAIN IN ANY MANNER TO LIFT OR HOIST
REELROVER. THERE IS NO SAFE WAY TO MAINTAIN CONTROL AND BALANCE OF THE
MACHINE IF LIFTED USING A STRAP OR CHAIN.
Forklift Locations
The ReelRover may be lifted from either side, and must only be lifted using a fork lift as shown in Figure
52. Do not attempt to lift the ReelRover by any other method.
WARNING : IF THE FORK LIFT FORKS ARE POSITIONED ANYWHERE OUTSIDE THE PROVIDED
TUBES SHOWN BELOW, THE REELROVER IS LIABLE TO SLIDE OR SHIFT AND FALL, WHICH
MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.

Fork lift tubes are designed into the frame of the standard ReelRover (Figure 52, left). If using a fork lift
with narrow, standard forks, the forks must be positioned into the provided fork tubes (Figure 53).
