Page 11: Unpack The Hoist
Unpack the Hoist When you open the box, your hoist is lying on its side. There is also a smaller box inside the large box that includes the TwinLine wire rope, TwinLine clamps, SafeStop brakes, and stop sleeves for terminating the wire rope to the drum.One end of the wire rope is pre-terminated to the TwinLine clamp and the other end is loose, with the excess spooled inside cardboard. - Page 12 4. Using a 3/8 in hex key, tighten the socket cap screw so the channel nut rotates 90 degrees against the walls of the strut channel and until the nut is snug against the bottom of the strut channel. The recommended torque range for this is 68–88 Nm (50–65 ft-lb). Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Guide...

Page 13: Cable Management
Basic management of your power and data cables can be done using cable cradles. If you use a cable swag for your FlyPipe Studio hoist, it is recommended that you use a split mesh rod closing grip strain relief solution, such as ETC part number HW6971, at the swag hook position.

5. Repeat steps three and four for the second nylon webbing strap. 6. Cut and remove the white cable ties that hold the cable assembly together and run the length of the cable assembly back down to the hoist. Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Guide... -

7. Once you have installed the TwinLine clamp, you must thead the TwinLine pair of wire ropes through the center grommet of each rib, beginning from the topmost rib and moving downward. Attach the Platter to the Hoist In these steps, you’ll need to have the TwinLine clamp and cable assembly positioned above the hoist so there is space to attach the platter. -
Page 16: Attach Cable Assembly To Platter
Note: There is a mark on the nylon webbing that is 457 mm (18 In) below the bottommost rib. This mark should be approximately at the point where the webbing loops through the platter. Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Guide... -
Page 17: Finalize Hoist Installation
Chapter 4 Finalize Hoist Installation After assembling your hoist and installing cable management, there are a couple additional items required before you can start running the hoist. Terminating the lift lines to the drum is the next logical step, but before you can perform this task you need to power the hoist and ensure the wiring is oriented properly and the motor is running in the correct direction. -
Page 18: Emergency Stop Termination
E-stop Termination Bypass Plug (ETC part # 8050B7002) into the nine-pin male connector receptacle on the top of the motor box. This completes the circuit and allows you to temporarily operate the hoist from the local controls. -
Page 19: Verify Proper Wiring
If you are installing a 120/208V hoist, you can use the Prodigy Phase Checker (ETC part number 8055A4013). For 277/480V hoists, use a standard 3-phase checker that is rated for 480VAC, similar to the 480V phase checker you can purchase through ETC (part# M7639). -

Page 21: Step 3: Attach Stop Sleeves To Lift Lines
Step 3: Attach Stop Sleeves to Lift Lines 1. Pull the first lift line down to the floor until it is taut and the cable equalizer plate is fully rotated. Ensure it is plumb to the TwinLine Cable Equalizer Plate clamp. -

3. Push the SafeStop latch back up into the device so it is resting above the notch on the bottom set of jaws. 4. Remove the tool and replace the plug on the top of the SafeStop device. Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Guide... -
Page 23: Float The Hoist
To accomplish this, you will likely need one person or one TwinLine Tension Clip (ETC part # 8006A4033) per TwinLine set to hold the lines up and away from the hoist until they are taut and continue holding them as the hoist is raised off the ground. If you run the hoist up with slack lines, you could cause damage to the hoist. -
Page 24: Configure And Test Hoist Operation
8. Verify that the hoist is moving downwards. CAUTION: Do not run the hoist below its original low trim position, as there is no more cable on the drum. Doing so can cause damage to the hoist. Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Guide... -
Page 25: Travel Limits
Travel Limits Once you have verified proper wiring and hoist function, the next step is to set the travel limits. These limits provide protection for the hoist and anything around it by safely limiting the range of travel. This is done by positioning your limit switches. The hard travel and overtravel limits are separated by 13 cm (5 in) of travel, which cannot be modified. -
Page 26: Set And Test Your Limits
8. If necessary, adjust the lower limit switch as needed to attain the desired hard limit. Note: Using local controls to move the hoist does not override the limits you have set. Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Guide... -
Page 27: To Set And Test The Upper Limits
To Set and Test the Upper Limits 1. Loosen the two Phillips screws on the bottom of the upper limit switch (furthest from the motor) and move it to the approximate position you want. 2. Tighten the screws so the switch is stationary. 3. - Page 28 Holzkirchen, DE +49 (80 24) 47 00-0 Rome, IT +39 (06) 32 111 683 Hong Kong +852 2799 1220 Paris, FR +33 1 4243 3535 etcconnect.com Support support.etcconnect.com Contact etcconnect.com/contactETC © 2020 ETC Trademark and patent info: etcconnect.com/ip Product information and specifications subject to change.
