NOTICE!
Risk of damage to property from forklifts or
pallet trucks!
Take proper precautions when you use a forklift or
pallet truck to move or lift parts or components of an
air handling unit as otherwise they may be damaged.
–
If you want to use a forklift to lift a package
without a base frame, you need to protect the
casing units properly.

Ensure that the load cannot tip.

3.3.3 Moving packages with a crane
Lashing points
The AHU casing units have lashing points for crane
transport. Depending on the construction and weight of
a unit, lashing points are:
Eye nuts
Transport tubes
The lashing points are part of the supply package. Use
only the factory lashing points to move AHU casing
units. If a unit has to be moved with different equipment,
contact TROX beforehand to discuss the details.
Transport straps
Fig. 6: Straps
AHU casing units which are more than 2448 mm wide
are factory fitted with transport straps ( Fig. 6 /1) that
give them extra stability for transport. Always move
AHU casing units with the transport straps or other
transport protection device in place; remove straps or
transport protection devices only when the unit has
reached its final position.
