Loading method: rear unloading
For unloading through the rear doors with a conventional fork-lift truck, no clamp, each reel must travel flat, with the core vertical, on at least 2 timber runners (bearers) laid lengthways, parallel to the vehicle length (direction of travel), never side to side, leaving clear space to insert the forks from the rear, with corner protectors, lashing straps and labels visible from the side.

- Corner protectors on the reel edges, held with lashing straps.
