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.
