Important Information

When adjusting units fitted with multiple jacking castors it is ESSENTIAL that they are adjusted simultaneously so that an even load distribution is maintained. Failure to do so may result in significant damage to the jacking castors, and the units to which they are fitted.

Load Rating

Jacking Castors are rated on a different principle to other castors. They lift the load off the floor and therefor each castor is liable to carry half the total load. The minimum castor capacity required is obtained by taking the Unladen unit weight + maximum load and dividing it by 2.
