ing on pallet (Photo 10). Use the two small pal-

lets, shipped with unit, as chocks for the wheels 

on the wheel carriage (Photo 11). This will keep 

the frame from rolling off the pallet and cause-

serious injury or death. While the frame is rest-

ing on the pallet, relocate the sling from its cur-

rent location to the main bar (6x4 tube) on front 

of frame (Photo 12). This will allow you to attach 

the leveling assembly without interference in a 

later step. Once sling has been relocated, con-

nect to overhead hoist and raise hoist until 

slack has been removed from sling.

When completing this portion of the assembly 

process, be careful handling the large parts. 

The components are heavy and dropping them 

could lead to serious injury or death.

Keep slight upward pressure on front of frame 

and cut bands connecting the rear of frame to 

the pallet (Photo 13). When all bands have 

been cut, lower the frame to the tongue lying on 

the ground. Down pressure may need to be 

applied to frame in order for the frame to come 

down. Connecting the tongue to the frame will 

be the next step in assembly. The two 7/8” x 6 

½” Gr. 5 bolts removed from an earlier step 

(Photo 4) will be needed for this process. Once 

frame has been lowered to the pallet, remove 

the two 7/8” x 3 ½” Gr. 5 bolts from the tongue 

Bolt Torque Chart (Page 45) for proper torque 

information. 

Before unit can be lowered to pallet, remove the 

bracing the wheel carriage was resting on when 

shipped (Photo 9). When bracing has been 

removed, lower frame so that wheels are rest-
