T
he RICON PF7000 Series Express Ramp has been engineered and designed for custom installations. Installa-
tion consists of the mounting of the ramp, installation of the electrical supply and control wiring, controller ad-
justment, and installation verification. This chapter provides installation guidelines and instructions. If a ques-
tion arises that is not covered in this chapter, contact the Ricon Product Support Department for assistance.
A.
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
1. RAMP LOCATION
The location of ramp depends on its path of motion. The ramp must be positioned so it can move unobstructed
through its required range of travel.

a. Refer to Figure 2-1. Remove cover strip screws.
b. Refer to Figure 2-1. Remove cover strips.
TAKE EXTREME CARE WHEN POSITIONING RAMP INTO TRAIN. BE SURE TO FOLLOW PROPER
OPERATION AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WHEN USING LIFTING DEVICE.
c. Refer to Figure 2-2. Install eye bolts (provided in kit #39022) in the locations shown in Figure 2-2. Use
crane or lifting hoist to place ramp into train.
d. Once ramp is properly placed into train, remove eye bolts.
e. Refer to Figure 2-2. Remove access panel.
