Final Procedures
(1)
Close and secure all panels and doors
(2)
Close or install protective covers or caps
on connection fittings and receptacles Install covers
(3)
If power plant is to be handled or loaded
by hoisting, install slmg on hoist rings at corners of
power plant as shown in figure 4-12.
d.
Hoisting
Attach hoisting sling to the power plant as shown
on the lifting data plate. Use a crane, helicopter or other
hoisting device capable of lifting a minimum of 5000
pounds and hoist to the desired location
WARNING
Do not use lifting equipment with a
capacity of less than 5000 pounds. Do
not allow power plant to swing back
and forth when it is suspended.
Failure to observe this warning may
result in severe injury or death to
personnel or damage to equipment.
e.
Fork Lifting.
Position the fork lift (5000 pound minimum
capacity) at the fork lift points designated on the power
plant and shown in fig. 4-12 and lift power plant for
loading or transport over short distances. Use fork
extensions of sufficient length to extend the forks of the
lift thru the power plant skids.
WARNING
Do not use fork lift with capacity of
less than 5000 pounds. Do not allow
power plant to rock excessively on
fork lift. Failure to observe this
warning may result in severe injury or
death to personnel or damage to
equipment.
f.
Wheeled
Transporter.
Attach
wheeled
transporter or mobilizer to power plant Refer to TM 9-
2330-275-14.
(1)
Separate transporter sections and prepare
transporter for use
(2)
Position transporter sections at end of
power unit adjacent to wheeled transporter attach. ment
poits (fig 4-12) at ends of power plant. Connect
transporter to power unit attachment points.
(3)
Operate transporter to raise power unit to
towing height
(4)
Use
approved
towing
equipment
or
manually move power unit to desired position.
(5)
When power unit is in desired position,
operate transporter to lower power unit. Disconnect and
remove transporter section.
g.
Skidding. Attach a cable or chain sling to
skidding and tie down rings (fig. 4-12) and connect to
suitable equipment for skidding to desired location
CAUTION
Do not attach skidding sling to
skidding equipment in such a manner
that the angle between any leg of the
sling and the end of the container is
less than 45 degrees. Any angle leas
than
45
degrees
will
cause
an
excessive aide strain which could
damage
the
power
unit.
Limit
skidding of the power plant to short
distance over smooth level terrain to
prevent damage to power unit skids.
h.
Shipment. The power unit may be transported
by airplane, helicopter, ship, truck, or train. The various
tie down and hoisting rings identified on the power unit
and shown in fig. 4-12 may be used to secure the power
plant to the transport equipment.
CAUTION
Position power unit with skid base
parallel to the carrier to prevent
excessive aide loads on the skids.
Make sure the carrier and restraining
methods are capable of supporting a
weight of 5000 pounds minimum.
i.
Unloading. Unload the power plant from the
transport equipment and locate in the desired position
using any of the handling methods described above
