Removing house battery RT 170 1997

[RT1997]

Roadtrek 170 1997 has the house battery under the bed.The battery is extremely heavy and it is a very narrow space to pull it out.The battery inclosed in riveted metal case with only narrow slots at the corners.Last time the slots were used to insert something like metal wrench handle to lift one side of the battery and then wigle it out.I am not sure since I was not the one who did it.This time 7+ years later (Lifeline batteries last long) the same guy could not do it .We both spent long and frustrating time trying...
I was wondering if there are some tools for DIY owners without powerlifting background to pull the heavy battery out?

Lots of lifting tools available. Just choose by what looks like will work with yours.

I tight boxes like that, I usually use a piece of 10 mil polyethylene sheet under/around so it can be removed easily the neat time.

Just remember to make the poly big enough to crumple up and get a good grip on it. After using it to lift the battery in trim it to whatever you want , leaving enough to lift it back out and tuck the extra down the sides or fold it over the top.
