NEVER allow the slings to contact the electronics enclosure or the transducer shrouds. 
Damage to the meter may occur. If the slings do come in contact with the electronics or 
the shroud, temporarily remove the head from the meter during the lifting operation 
(remove the four 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 or the transducer shroud.
7.
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.

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.
