How to have two operators to move one object using crane?

[ FlexSim 23.1.1 ]

I'm working on a case study with large and heavy flow items that need to be moving across the model by a crane and because the items are large two operators must work together at the same time when moving one flow item with the crane. I don't know how to use 2 operators in a crane and I would appreciate any suggestions.

I have a simple model with a dispatcher connected to 2 operators at the end, however I haven't found out how to solve this problem. I will upload the model anyway.

Thanks in advancetest process flow.fsm

Have you worked through the tutorial on coordinated tasks yet? The example model covered in it looks very similar to what you are asking, so it might help you get to a solution.
