Installation and anchoring

The base can be moved using a forklift (if on a pallet) or a pallet jack (directly underneath the base). In order to move the base directly with a pallet jack, the four anchoring brackets on the front and back must be removed if the pallet jack is wider than 585mm (23in). The table can be lifted with a forklift (using straps on the handles) or by hand with the handles on each side.

The height and levelling should be adjusted with the levelling feet once the base is in the desired location. Anchor the base securely to the ground using the anchor bracket (if they were removed to move the base, reinstall them on the base).
