What is the proper method to lift a tank during movement?

Using lift lugs installed by the manufacturer is the proper method for lifting a tank during movement. Lift lugs are specifically designed attachment points that allow safe and efficient lifting of the tank. They ensure that the load is distributed evenly and minimize the risk of damaging the tank or causing injury during the lifting process. This method adheres to safety standards and manufacturer guidelines, which are critical in maintaining the structural integrity of the tank and ensuring a compliant operation.

In contrast, employing standard ropes could lead to uneven lifting and potential damage, as they do not provide the same level of stability and control as the designated lift lugs. Utilizing cranes without additional support can create an unsafe lifting scenario, as it might not distribute the weight properly and could lead to accidents or damage. Dragging the tank across the ground is not a safe or approved method of movement for tanks, as it can cause severe damage to both the tank and the ground, as well as presenting a significant safety hazard.
