4.5 Lifting   

See Appendix II for lifting points. 

 

DO NOT walk on top of the  units with muddy boots, as this will scratch the surface. 

 

NOTE: Units with extensions, for inverts greater than 0.5m, turrets with covers are supplied separately 

and therefore the unit may collect rainwater. 

 

When moving across rough ground, great care should be taken to avoid increased loads due to sudden 
movement of the unit.
