Available in 1t, 2t & 3t capacities
Follow all instructions and warnings for inspecting,
maintaining and operating this trolley.
The use of any trolley presents some risk of personal injury
or property damage. That risk is greatly increased if proper
instructions and warnings are not followed. Before using this
trolley, each operator should become thoroughly familiar
with all warnings, instructions and recommendations in this
manual. Retain this manual for future reference and use.
Forward this manual to the trolley operator. Failure to
operate the equipment as directed in this manual may cause
injury. Should you have any questions regarding this
product, please call Columbus McKinnon.
The hoisting equipment described in this manual is
intended for industrial use only and should not be used
to lift, support or otherwise transport people.
GENERAL INFORMATION:
ANSI B30.11 compliant. The UT series trolleys are designed
to be used with several Columbus McKinnon hoists up to
a capacity of 3 metric tons. Safety lugs, machined wheels
and sealed bearings are included with each trolley.
Rubber bumpers are available as an option.
Plain or Geared-Type
LOAD RATINGS:
Before installing, make certain the capacity of the hoist does not
exceed the capacity of the trolley and the supporting structure is
capable of supporting the load, hoist and trolley.
INSTALLATION:
Adjustable flange width ranges are 2.3" to 8.6" and may be
mounted on either American Standard Beams or Wide-Flange
Beams. Proper adjustment is obtained by positioning the washers
and spacers to achieve a beam to wheel flange spacing of
approximately 1/16". See pages 4 and 5 of this manual for
recommended guidelines.
MAINTENANCE / INSPECTION:
The trolley should be inspected periodically for evidence of excess
wear or overload and its continued ability to support the load.
The frequency of inspection will depend on the severity of use.
It is recommended that the user begin with a monthly inspection
and extend periods to quarterly, semi-annually or annually based
on monthly experience. Any worn parts should be replaced
immediately. The trolley should be visually inspected for the
following conditions: loose hardware, sideplate damage or bending,
cracks or distortion, wheel wear or cracks and worn bearings.
