Hello Terry
If you only pick up 2 or 3 sections in each lift,You can use the cross
bracing. I believe the top of each section has straight piece on all sides.You
can loop it with straps or use shackles.I used a flat top section w/thrust
bearing.It has 3 holes on the top plate just right for shackles.The operator
should be able to help you.
