Abstract

The invention relates to a method for lifting a component () of a multirotor wind turbine () from an initial position to an operating position. The initial position is near a base () of a tower structure () of the wind turbine () while the operating position is arranged at a distance from the tower structure (), on a load carrying structure () connected to the tower structure () and extending away from the tower structure (). By operating a first hoisting mechanism provided at or near a connecting point between the tower structure () and a load carrying structure (), and a second hoisting mechanism provided at or near the operating position, the component () is moved from the initial position to the operating position along a predetermined path. The component () is finally mounted on the load carrying structure () at the operating position.
