OPERATING MANUAL
2.2 LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS
On the day that the machine arrives, make sure that a crane with sufficient capacity is available to
unload the Panbrake from the vehicle. Make sure access to the chosen site is clear and that doors
and ceilings are sufficiently high and wide enough to receive the machine.
To handle the Panbrake, use only the four sling holes located on the top of the end plates. (Fig. 2.3)
The slings should be positioned so the machine is level when lifted.
When using slings please take note of the sling angle and the loads that apply
When the slings are at a 45° angle then each sling will carry
the equivalent of 50% of load weight. (Fig.2.1).
When the slings are at a 90° angle then each sling will carry
the equivalent of 75% of the load weight on each sling.
(Fig 2.2)
Note!
Metalmaster recommend not to exceed 90° angle
