The MB20/26 may be lifted by an overhead hoist/crane subject to the following strict
procedure.
Raise the jib to clear the lifting straps as shown.
Use 4 separate lifting straps connected to a spreader beam. DO NOT use a lesser
number of threaded straps as these could slip and lead to instability. The
recommended minimum capacity of EACH of the 4 straps is 2 tonne and the minimum
length of each strap is 2 metres. Damage to the covers and/or cage rails can occur if a
spreader beam is not deployed during a crane lift.
Apply the straps via 1 tonne shackles to each of the 4 lifting lugs on the chassis. See
