The MTS Exceed frames are heavy.
Moving the frame using improper procedures can injure personnel (for
example, strained muscles and back injuries) or damage the frame.
When lifting the frame, take the appropriate precautions to prevent injuries
to yourself. Moving and positioning the MTS Exceed frame must be
performed by qualified personnel only.
MTS Exceed frames weigh from 115–3500 kg (254.5–7716 lb). Other apparatus
such as the pallet, packaging, and accessories add to the overall weight. If you
have any questions, call MTS.
