Unload Air Cart
The ADC2220 or ADC2350B is normally ordered with an
NTA-3010/3510 drill, and delivered on two or more
flatbed trucks. Un-installed components may be on the
air cart truck, the drill truck (single-truck delivery), or on a
separate truck.
Note:
The air cart is loaded for lift delivery.
Hoist is not recommended.
Do not attempt dock unload.
Hopper damage is likely if hoisting is attempted.
Refer to Figure 1
1. Have the truck parked where it can be driven out
from under an elevated air cart, and where two fork
lifts can approach the cart from each side.
2. Use fork lifts or hoists to remove everything except
the air cart from the truck. This will include wheels for
the air cart, and may include crates of drill parts and
un-installed options. Do not install any components
on the air cart while still on the truck.

Have at least four people available for the lift:
- a qualified operator for each forklift,
- an observer to monitor side-to-side level, and
- the truck driver.
Establish and practice commands for the observer to signal
each operator for lift, stop, drive, lower, as well as
emergency procedures. If these operators have not previously
performed a team lift, have them practice simultaneous lift,
face-to-face with no load.
