4.5.1 SEPARATING THE MACHINE FROM THE
CRATE MOUNTING
Refer to
Figure 4-2
and the following instructions.
1. Remove the nuts, lock washers, washers and
mounting bolts used to fasten the machine to
the shipping crate skid platform.
2. Reserve the mounting hardware used to
mount the machine to the shipping crate.
This hardware can be reused when
mounting the machine to the vehicle.
However, depending upon the thickness of
the vehicle mounting surface, and the
addition of vibration isolators (
Section
4.5.3
), the mounting bolts may not be long
enough to secure the machine package.
The minimum thread clearance is 2-1/2”
threads showing above the nut, with the
machine fastened in place (
Figure 4-3
).
4.5.2 MARKING THE MACHINE MOUNTING

1. Using a proper hoist, lift and place the unit
into a preliminary position on the service
body of the vehicle so that access is easily
attained, the control trunk line and all other
connections will reach the unit, and there is
enough space surrounding the mounting
area for cooling purposes. Refer to
Figure 4-
4
for lifting bail location.
CAUTION
Lift the machine package in accordance
within the safety guidelines given in
Section 1.7.1, Falling Unit Can Cause
Injury
.
NOTE
When the machine is to be lifted via a
crane or hoist, always use the lifting bail
to lift the machine. Using any other bail
point on the machine may cause damage.
