supporting capacity of the subsurface.
4. Ensure that only sufficiently qualified personnel
perform such work.
5. Always shut off PS-500 before transport and secure
against starting back up unintentionally.
» Start de-installation only after residual energy has
been dissipated.
6. Ensure that visual and audio contact exists between
the crane operator and operating personnel.
