WARNING:
To prevent personal injury, wear steel toe boots and heavy duty grip
gloves while transporting the RTP 118

Because of its 330 kg (around 728 lbs) weight, LFA does NOT recommend
carrying the machine manually but rather with an engine hoist. At least two
people should be involved (one operating the engine hoist and one stabilizing
the machine) in removing the machine from the shipping container and placing
it in the workspace.
