2.7 Lifting from the crate
When lifting the bushing from the crate with a lifting
adapter, position a clean soft sling around the outer
terminal and another on the shackle attached to the lifting
adapter as shown in Fig. 9.
If a lifting adapter is not available, the bushing can be lifted
by positioning a clean soft sling around the mounting flange
instead; see Fig. 10.
The lifting gear and lifting adapter are delivered in a
separate crate.
CAUTION
Slings
must not
be placed around the insulator
because this could cause damage to the sheds. If
placed on the ground, the bushing must be
supported the same way as in the crate, e.g. at the
mounting flange and the outer terminal. It
may not
be supported by the sheds.
CAUTION
The sling at the outer terminal can be damaged by
sharp edges. Be sure to protect the sling from
damage.
DO NOT
lift at the silicone part of the composite
insulator. The silicone filling or fiberglass tube may
be damaged.
It is important that the bushing is repacked in the same way
as it was delivered. The bushing should be axially and
radially fixed in place, and secured against rotation by
wooden supports.
At the supplier's plant, the crate's lid is secured with screws
and plastic straps. It is recommended that screws and
plastic straps be used when re-fitting the lid.
