8 HANDLING, SHIPPING AND STORAGE
8.1 Dimensions
The FROG-9 overall dimensions are as follows:
Height 2877 mm (9.44 ft)
Max Width 1 2794 mm (9.17 ft)
Max Width 2 3219 mm (10.56 ft)
Tare Weight 1100 kg (2425 lb)
8.2 Handling & Transportation
8.2.1 Forklift
Handling of the FROG-9 with a forklift truck may damage the underside of the FROG-9 (landing feet,
cross braces or main column). Therefore the unit must be secured to a pallet specifically designed
for forks.
8.2.2 Crane
When lifting the FROG-9 with short chain or strop, the handling eye must be used. Care must be
taken not to damage the FROG-9 lifting sling set.
8.2.3 Securing
Each FROG-9 is fitted with 6 tie-down / lashing points in way of the main frame pillar struts. Each tie-
down point will sustain a load of 500 kg (1101 lb).
8.2.4 Inspection
Before and after transportation the FROG-9 must be inspected to check for damage sustained in
transit. The unit must not be used if any structural damage is observed. If any damage has been
observed please refer to
Section 6.3 , item iv, for remedial instructions.
8.2.5 Preparation for Road Transport
Prior to shipping, the seat harnesses must be secured by tightening the seat harnesses and tying the
buckles together. This will prevent seat harnesses flapping and damaging the seating area. It is
recommended that the FROG-9 is covered for shipping either with a FROG-9 weatherproof
protective cover or other heavy duty tarpaulin material.
8.2.6 Containerisation
The FROG-9 will not fit in a standard or high-cube container. If the FROG-9 is transported on flat rack
it must be secured. Recommended securing points in addition to the tie down / lashing points are
the radial / peripheral floor braces and the handling eye. To protect it from excess loading, the main
Lift-Eye must not be used as a securing point. Feet must be supported to prevent collapse by placing
suitable chocks or props under the unit.
