Measures for preparation
4. Mount the actuator to the valve. See sec
-
tion 5.1.
5. Remove slings after mounting.
We recommend using a hook with safety
latch (see Fig. 3). The safety latch prevents
the slings from slipping during lifting and
transporting.
Lifting the entire control valve assembly
A swivel lifting hook can be screwed into the
female thread on the top diaphragm case
(see section 3.4 on Accessories). The swivel
lifting hook is designed for setting a control
valve assembly upright.

See associated valve documentation for
instructions on how to lift a control valve.
