Important Safety Notes (continued)
Lifting the Sensor
The RadaScan sensor unit weighs approximately 100kg.
It is recommended that lifting of the RadaScan sensor be conducted by someone with
appropriate experience in lifting, adhering to the following procedure:
1. Locate one of the three bolts around the perimeter of the radome that are marked “SECURE
LIFTING EYE HERE” (see Figure 1).
2. Remove the bolt.
3. Attach a lifting eye to the radome by lowering its threaded section into the empty hole and
fitting the washer and nut from below (Figure 2).
4. Tighten the nut using a torque of 30Nm.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 to fit the other two lifting eyes.
6. Securely attach the sensor to suitable lifting equipment by passing straps through the lifting
eyes or by the use of hooks.
7. Once the lifting operation is complete and the sensor is in a stable position, remove the three
lifting eyes.
8. Replace the original three bolts into the radome and tighten to 30Nm.

These instructions apply only to sensors fitted
with the latest radome (having the protruding
rim as illustrated). Sensors fitted with the older
type of radome should be lifted using the eye
rings on top of the radome.
