Standard ceiling bracket
The ceiling brackets are pushed onto the rail and distributed with max. 2000 mm between each bracket and 200
mm from the last bracket at the end of the rail. Use at least three bracket per rail. It is recommended to use an
uneven number of brackets, if only one person is installing the rail. Thus, one bracket is placed on the centre
creating balance when the rail is hung in the first bolt.
Note! In at least one end of the rail, use a bracket with locking screw to be secured to the
rail.
Measure for the hole for the one expansion bolt of the centre bracket.
Drill the hole to a depth of approx. 80 mm with a 8 mm. impact drill bit. The hole is deeper than the expansion
bolt length to faciliate easy dismounting later on. For dismounting, you can then drive the bolt fully in instead of
pulling it out.
Drive an expansion bolt type Hilti HSA M8x75 in, leaving sufficient room for the bracket thickness (6 mm), the
locking washer (2 mm) and the nut (7 mm) plus a little allowance. When you have driven in the bolt, remove the
nut and the washer.
Insert the hoist trolley in the rail. The trolley can be oriented in both directions.
If you are installing the traverse trolley, make sure that it is correctly oriented for the subsequent installation of
the traverse rail.
Install end stops at both ends of the rail. Insert the adjustable end stops in the rail with the rubber plug side first
and the steel plate towards to the bottom of the rail. Finger tighten the screws.
Lift the rail in place, mount the washers and nuts and tighten them lightly. Adjust the rail lenghtwise and angle wise,
and tighten the nut.
Drill the hole for the bracket in the one end of the rail but on the opposite side of the rail. Drive in the expansion
bolt, make the final adjustments and tighten.
Next, drill the remaining holes at one end of the bracket slot. If the drill bit hits a reinforcement bar before the
hole is (50 mm) deep, simply drill at the other end of the slot. If the drill hits the reinforcement bars again, move
the bracket approx.. 20-25 mm along the rail. The bracket will then cover the failed holes.
Note! If the hole depth is between 50-70 mm, use a Hilti HSA M8x57.
Drive in the remaining expansion bolts, place the washers and nuts and tighten.
Position the adjustable rail stops correctly and tighten. Make sure to position the end stops so that the hoist does
not hit the wall.
When installing parallel rail in a traverse system, be sure to position the end stops at the exact same points to
ensure that the traverse trolley hit the end stops simultaneously.
Installation of the hoist: See the user's manual.
Installation of the charger: See the user's manual.
