Hoisting and transportation
To move the machine, it must be lifted as follows:

Raising and lowering the machine must be a gradual process to avoid the
build up of kinetic energy which the braking system could not over-ride.
Given the considerable mass of the machine, before pushing it on its wheel
mounts, make sure no-one is standing behind or near the machine, since
impact could cause serious injury.

Caution!
Before lifting the machine make sure that the cables are strong
enough to bear the load, and that the hoisting device has the suitable
capacityon the basis of the arrangementof the cables. In all cases,
equipment used for lifting must comply with current laws and regu-
lations.
