- Down in the basement we are here to rig out 3 1,200 lb. transformers.
-
- The door on the left leads to the staircase outside where the crane is. The door on the right we need to rig the old transformers out of the room and to the bottom of the stairs where we can then pick them with the crane and load them onto our truck.
-
- The stairwell is a tight workspace but we make it work.

- Looking up from downstairs this is a view of the tight workspace we have. We need to fish the old and new transformer through these beams.

- We change the rigging when we got inside to our roll o lift jacking cart system.

- The threshold we need to cross is about 6 inches so we build a ramp using wooden wedges, plywood, and aluminum plates to help get the old transformers and the new transformers into and out of the room.
