slings and yokes/crossbeams

leng = sling (van Dale, Groot Woordenboek NL-EN)

juk = yoke, crossbeam (also van Dale)

In other words, avoid (excessive) mechanical loads (pinching by slings) by using beams or yokes (For lifting).
Peer comment(s):

disagree Dave Greatrix : Hi Kenneth, I think you'll find that yokes/crossbeams are not applicable here - see ref above. However slings makes sense.

could be; van Dale also gives this as a translation of juk, but I thought that a trestle is used to support something onthe ground, rather than for lifting...(or tressle)

tressles

Jukken are tressles. It sounds as though they are being used to raise the batteries to relieve the strain on the "lengen" which I can only assume to be battery leads of some sort.
