Install a lifting eye in the lift hole of the counter-weight. Connect a crane to the lifting eye and raise the crane until it holds part of the weight of the counterweight. Remove the tow pin and remove the capscrew that holds the counterweight to the frame. Use the crane to lift the counterweight from the lift truck. Put counterweight on the floor so that it has stability and will not fall over. Take care not to damage exhaust or cooling components

Make sure the seals are on the counterweight

Use a crane to install the counterweight on the lift truck. When the counterweight is installed, make sure the hooks on the frame fully engage the coun terweight so it is aligned with the parts of the frame. Install and tighten the M24 x 3 capscrew to 555 Nem (409 Ibf ft)

Install tow pin and roll pin. See Tow Pin, Remove and Install for procedures

If lift truck is equipped with an overhead exhaust system, install the overhead exhaust pipe. See the section Exhaust System Repair for the procedures;

WARNING! DO NOT operate the lift truck without the overhead guard correctly fastened to the lift truck

WARNING! DO NOT weld mounts for lights or accessories to legs of the overhead guard. Changes that are made by welding, or by drilling holes that are too big or in the wrong location, can reduce the strength of the overhead guard

See your dealer for Yale lift trucks BEFORE performing any changes to the overhead guard

NOTE: The lift trucks covered in this YRM are equipped with either a high or low overhead guard. The removal and installation procedures for both types of overhead guards are the same

No welding or drilling on legs of overhead guard is permitted as per previous WARNING

NOTE: The lifting device can be connected to any number of positions on the overhead guard depending upon the lifting device available. The ideal choices are a four point sling connected to all four corners on the top of the overhead guard, or a two point sling connected to two opposite corners of the overhead guard

If a single point hoist is used, make sure that the lift point is as close to the center of the overhead guard. If during the initial start of the lift the overhead guard is off balance lower immediately and move the hoist to a more centered point

Connect a lifting device to remove or install the overhead guard. Loosen clamp and disconnect the air intake hose from the elbow. Remove bolls, elbow, retainer, and grommet from the overhead guard rear leg

Disconnect any wires between the frame and the overhead guard. When the overhead guard is lifted from the frame, make sure that any electrical wires are moved through the holes in the frame so that they are not damaged

Inspect for loose, burned, missing, cracked or damaged hardware

Inspect all parts for dents, holes, bends, burrs, rust, corrosion or marred finishes
