Forklift

DROP HAZARD

Plan ahead to minimize travel distances and the time the forklift solely supports the cabinet.
When moving the battery cabinet by forklift, always transport the cabinet while it remains on its shipping pallet.
To safely lift the battery cabinet, use a forklift with a fork length of 1300 mm (52 in) or more and ample lifting capacity.
The tilt angle of the cabinet should not exceed 10° during movement.
Perform a test lift to ensure stability and correct fork positioning.
Move on flat surfaces only and keep the lift height as low as possible to avoid tipping.
Use spotters to guide the cabinet safely, keeping all personnel at a safe distance.
Lower the cabinet gently to prevent damage.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury.
