3.
NEVER attempt to lift the meter using only one sling around the meter. Always use two 
slings wrapped around each end of the body as shown below. A choker style sling is 
recommended using a spreader bar.

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.
