Support Pipe
The Acrobat carriage is not designed
to support overhead or overhung loads.
Adequately support the pipe using
appropriate support devices. If not supported,
overhead loads could fall causing serious
injury or death.
Ensure the pipe is properly supported before attaching the
carriage to the pipe. Ensure there is enough travel in the pipe
to complete the fusion.
