WARNING
: Installation must only be performed by qualified professionals with the appropriate credentials
for all required tasks.
4.1
Pre-Shipment Planning
Prior to shipment of the equipment:
1. Ensure that your facility has an adequate foundation to support the equipment. Consider the
equipment weight, material weight, and torque when the equipment is operating.
2. Determine the appropriate anchoring method for the equipment.
3. Ensure that your facility entrances can accommodate the equipment.
4. Determine the equipment required to move the FLT, including vehicles and rigging. Allow only
qualified professionals to operate the equipment and move the FLT.
4.2
Inspection of Shipment
Upon receiving the equipment:
1. Ensure that all pieces of equipment are present and not damaged.
a. Report shipping damage to the carrier before the carrier leaves your facility. All claims must
be filed before the carrier leaves the unloading site.
b. Report any missing components immediately.
2. Remove shipping supports from the equipment (if present).

Installation Guidelines
NOTICE:
The customer is responsible for evaluation and guarding of any open sides of the equipment.
NOTICE:
All plumbing and wiring must meet or exceed all federal, state, and local codes/standards,
and must be installed by qualified personnel.
WARNING:
Before use, FLT must be secured to floor using four holes in bottom of frame. If the caster
package is installed on the FLT, the FLT unit should be lowered to the floor (casters raised) instead of
anchoring.
WARNING:
The air regulator is pre-set to 43 PSI
[2.96 bar] and cannot be adjusted to higher pressure.
Operating at a higher pressure can rupture airbag.
1.
Level the FLT, then anchor it to the floor using (4) holes in bottom of frame. If the caster package
is installed on the FLT, the FLT unit should be lowered to the floor (casters raised) instead of
anchoring.
2. Ensure pneumatic hoses within the frame of the machine are secured to the frame (where possible)
and clear of the rotating bucket, pivot points, and/or any moving parts.
3. Connect air supply (50-100 PSI nominal; 3.45-6.89 bar) to ball valve.
4. Turn ball valve to open position to enable air pressure.
For information on installation and setup of major purchased components, refer to manufacturer
documentation.
