Wall Installation, End Hung Rail; Rail Profile M & L - Invacare Robin Installation And Technical Manual

5.3 Wall installation, end hung rail

The following are recommendations only. Alternatively, expansion bolts with the similar thickness and quality can
be applied. Always follow the recommendations from your supplier.
For freely suspended installation, the end of the rails may be attached to the wall with wall brackets or wall
support. Chose wall support, if you are in doubt of the load bearing capacity of the wall material.
When installing freely suspended rails, the max. rail length must be observed, depending on the selected rail
profile. The distance between the walls must be max. 2 m for rail profile S, 4 m for rail profile M and 8 m for rail
profile L.
If you need to mount or dismount a hoist trolley after installation, the distance from one wall to the rail must be at
least 160 mm.
At secondary installation of Robin Mover, the distance must be minimum 300 mm.
If you need to mount or dismount the traverse trolley after installation, the distance between the one wall and the
rail must be at least 350 mm. (Minimum distance from rail to wall must always be 60 mm).
If you have a wall-mounted rail profile S, you cannot mount or dismount the trolley after installation.
5.3.1 Rail profile M & L
When installing wall brackets or wall support legs, leave a gap of at least 80 mm from the ceiling to the upper edge
of the wall bracket or floor support for rail profile M and 150mm for rail profile L. When using wall support legs,
cut the support leg profile to a appropriate length at the floor end.
NOTE! Remember to make allowance for the floor support foot.
In case of skirting boards, either use the high wall support foot, or cut away the skirting board.
NOTE! Always install wall support legs right at the wall in their full length.
Mark for holes using a level, and drill the holes.
Concrete wall
When mounting a freely hanging rail into a concrete wall, a wall bracket should be used for mounting.
For mounting, we recommend using either Hilti expansion bolt HSA M10x68, drilling depth min. 60mm, Ø10, or
Hilti adhesive mortar HIT-HY 150 and HAS M10, drilling depth min. 95mm, Ø12 (when mounted in wet rooms,
use stainless steel HAS quality A4-70).
NOTE! If the wall is not thick enough to drill up to the threaded rod HAS, you may alternatively use Hilti HIT-TZ.
