Alternative Pad Plan
If sump/drain is not used lift will require 1/2” shims under the lag plates to allow proper water
drainage. The base frame must be shimmed and/or grouted according to the pad plan to
ensure the base frame is properly supported. Hydraulic connections are to be made at the
couplings on the roller end of the base frame.
