	HiVol® Body Installation Due to the size of most PHIL HiVol Bodies, it is often necessary to install them at the end user’s facility.  Requirements for such installations are below.  Two options for HiVol Body Installation are available: Field installation with Supervisory Assistance Self installation by customer Field Erection/Installation Requirements: Mounting of body to truck chassis Install tailgate (if applicable) Customer Responsibilities: Lifting equipment. Welding equipment available (if necessary). Miscellaneous accessory hardware as required. PHIL Supervisory Assistance PHIL will provide a working supervisor to assist in commissioning the PHIL HiVol Body for a nominal charge.  This installation Supervisory Assistance is available with a minimum of sixteen (16) days notice, and is preferably ordered at the same time as the HiVol Body.  Installation time may vary depending upon field conditions. Approximate Installation Time: The approximate time required to install a PHIL HiVol Body in the field would be as follows, depending on the number of options, the body size and upon the extend field conditions: HiVol Body without tailgate: 10 – 20 man hours +/- HiVol Body with tailgate: 45 – 60 man hours +/-
