Lifter-Trailer Contact Risk:
Do not move lifters or crane so far in that trailer wheels will
not be able to clear them when pulling trailer out from under
planter.
Load “Wedging” Risk:
If using multiple lifters, do not drive the lifts fully forward into
the planter, unless the lifts are known to have precisely vertical
motion. If the load moves forward while lowering, the planter
will tend to push the lifters backward.
Refer to Figure 22 (which depicts a three fork lift)
9.
Slowly lift the planter off the trailer bed.
