6. NEVER allow the slings to contact the electronics enclosure or the transducer cabling.
Damage to the meter may occur. If the slings do come in contact with the electronics
enclosure, then remove the two bolts holding the enclosure to its base and temporarily
remove the head from the meter during the lifting operation (remove the two bolts
holding the enclosure to its base and unplug the cable from the Acquisition Module.
Two screws hold this cable in place.) Use a spreader-bar on the sling to prevent contact
with the electronics.
Once the lifting operation is complete, reattach and secure the electronics cable to J3
on the Acquisition Module, return the electronics enclosure to its original position,
replace the bolts, and secure the enclosure in place. Lifting the meter with the upper
enclosure installed but with out the bolts installed, may cause the electronics to fall and
cause personal injury or electronics damage.

7. NEVER apply shock loads to the meter. Always lift the meter gradually. If shock loading
ever occurs, the slings must be inspected per manufacturer's procedures prior to being
placed in any further service.
