4. Visually inspect the slings prior to use for any signs of abrasion or other damage. Refer
to the sling manufacturer's procedures for proper inspection of the particular sling you
are using.
5. Only use slings with ratings that exceed the weight to be lifted. Reference your
company's standards for safety factors that must be included when calculating the load
rating.
6. Provide support for the transmitter electronics assemblies during lifting operations.
7. Once the lifting operation is complete, attach and secure the electronics to the pipe
stand or other rigid structure using the mounting bracket bolts. Lifting the meter
without supporting the transmitter enclosures, may cause the electronics to fall and
cause personal injury or electronics damage.
