If the crate is horizontal:
a.
Thread the lifting straps through the 25 mm (1 in) lifting
holes in the left and right skids of the crate (a).
b.
Fasten the other ends of the straps to an appropriately-
rated forklift or crane.
c.
Using the forklift or crane, carefully tilt the crate up until
vertical. Use the lifting straps to stabilize the crate and
prevent it from tipping.
10.
Once the crate is vertical, unlatch the lid and set it aside.
11.
Remove the wooden braces that secure the Express 250 in
the crate.
Note:
In early versions of the crate, one top swing arm brace
is secured with 8 screws (4 per side) from the outside of the
crate. If needed, remove this brace using a #2 Phillips
screwdriver.
12.
Remove the foam pad from the ceiling of the crate and the
foam packaging from the top of the swing arms.
Note:
For crane access, or for extra room while forklifting, remove the top screws and top panel
of the crate.
13.
Loosen (but do not remove) the wingnuts holding the boards that secure the charging station
base. Slide the support boards away from the charging station.
14.
Using either a forklift or crane, remove the Express 250 from its crate. Move it to its mounting
location and keep it elevated:
•
Using an overhead crane: Thread the supplied lifting straps through the forklift handles, then
through the crane lift guides at the top. DO NOT put the straps through the crane lift guides
only.
•
Using a forklift: Insert the forklift blades inside the forklift handles. Position the blades
approximately 70 cm (27.5 in) apart (inside to inside), and the bottom of the blades
approximately 114 cm (45 in) above ground. These measurements vary depending on the
type of forklift used.
Note:
If a wall is located behind the installation pad, ensure the forklift blades do not protrude
far enough to hit the wall when moving the Express 250 onto the pad.
.
WARNING:
The Express 250 has a high center of gravity. Take care to prevent tipping
when moving the Express 250.
Important:
To protect the charging connectors from damage, keep them wrapped
throughout the installation process.
