WARNING
Lifting cables, chains, hooks, and slings used for lifting must be in good condition
and of suitable capacity.
Improper use of lifting device and improper attachment of cables may cause injury
to personnel and damage to equipment. Observe all standard rules of safety.
Use extreme caution when handling heavy parts. Provide adequate support and
use assistance during procedure. Ensure any lifting device used is in good
condition and of suitable load capacity. Keep clear of heavy parts supported only
by lifting device.
Failure to follow these warnings may result in injury or death to personnel. Seek
medical attention in the event of an injury.
NOTE
Slider assembly weighs 1,400 lb (635 kg).
The following steps will verify that slider bed alignment is within acceptable
tolerances. The relationship between the width of front guides and rear guides is
critical to ensure that rear twistlocks can correctly engage container corner
castings.
These dimensions must be verified with front slider beds in container configuration,
and slider assemblies rotated parallel to truck frame.
2.
Using suitable lifting devices, rotate both slider bed assemblies until parallel with truck frame.
3.
Measure and record the distance between left front slider guide (Figure 3, Item C) and right front slider
guide (Figure 3, Item D).
