Do not move the pump assembly using pipe rollers unless the fabricated steel base is well supported for its full length on heavy timbers or steel support beams or channels.  If rollers are used, an over-hung load can result when a roller is at the midpoint of the base. Such a load may be sufficient to cause base distortion, loss of alignment, and damage during operation.

For Heavy and extreme duty pumps, Proper equipment must be available to unload the pumps from the truck.
