REPAIRS COUNTERWEIGHT WARNING The counterweight is very heavy. Make sure that the lifting devices and lift truck have the capacity to lift 7 000 kg (15 450 lb). Removal 1. Remove the ballast cover from the frame.
2. Put the forks of another lift truck under the counterweight. To make the counterweight steady, fasten a nylon lifting sling around the counterweight and attach the sling to the carriage or load backrest of the lift truck. 3. Remove the two bolts that hold the counterweight to the frame. Raise the counterweight approximately 150 mm (6 inches). Carefully remove the counterweight from the frame and lower it to the floor.
