4 Transportation & Lifting
•
Tanks must be held down during transportation using nylon straps, do not use cables or
chains to secure tanks. Do not over tighten straps that can result in deformation of the tank
shell. Do not drop or roll tanks from the truck.
•
Move tanks only by lifting and setting, do not drag or roll.
•
Always set the tank(s) on flat smooth ground clear of debris etc. To prevent movement, tanks may
need to be tied down and chocked. Position the chocks in the locations shown below:
•
Tanks are best lifted by a machine and webbing lifting straps – do not use chains or wire ropes in
contact with the tank.
•
Ensure tank is empty when lifting.
•
Care is needed to control the lift to ensure the tank is not damaged.
•
Ensure the slings are positioned at a joint on the tank, firmly secured and the load is evenly
balanced.
