Take the necessary precautions when moving or lifting your ASA r2 storage system.
An ASA A1K storage system can weigh up to 62.83 lbs (28.5 kg). To lift the system, use two people or a hydraulic lift.
An ASA A70 storage system or an ASA A90 storage system can weigh up to 151.68 lbs (68.8 kg). To lift the system, use four people or a hydraulic lift.
Storage shelf weight
