Carpenter’s apron (to hold small parts and tools) The pictures in this manual show a standard Treadwall PE, but the main difference is in the frame construction, and the relevant points are well illustrated. - Page 4 The Treadwall is easily adjusted to a slab or overhanging angle by rotating the crank handle.

Page 14: Main Shaft
Main Shaft: The main shaft has four bearings and three sprockets. The end with two sprockets goes to the right. Raise the shaft to top of the frames. Position the ladders slightly in front of the frames as shown. Line up the holes and place the mounting bolts with washers. -
Page 15: Drive Chain
Put the “fifth bolt” through the hole in the channel and replace the washers and nut. Push the panel assembly towards the top of the channel until it is at the top of the mounting slots and tighten the mounting bolts. Important: Do not over-tighten the mounting bolts. - Page 16 Bottom shaft, Back-guard, Channel X-bracing: Definition Bottom shaft: a 1" diameter shaft with two large sprockets. One sprocket is fixed and the other is loose. Definition Back-guard: a long flat piece with wing ends. X-Bracing: 5/16" rod with a turnbuckle at one end. Definition Place the shaft into the two bearings at the bottom of the channels, loose sprocket to the right.
- Page 17 Counter-timer, spacer bar, photocells Definition Spacer-bar: a piece of 1 1/2" square tubing with a threaded hole at one end and a stud at the other (It is shipped bolted to the back- guard). Bolt the spacer-bar between the two channels about one foot above the adjuster pipe.
- Page 18 The Main Chains: Protect floor under Treadwall from grease and wear gloves. Remove one chain from the box. One person should hold the coil on edge and unwind it while the other raises the chain over the shaft. Lift one chain up to the main shaft and drape it over the shaft next to one of the sprockets.
- Page 19 The shroud mounts at the top of the Treadwall, and the printed surface will be vertical. Place the ladders as shown, and lift the shroud to the top of the channels. Bolt it onto the top bearing holes with 1/2" bolts. Definition Proximity switch: A bracket with a black wire, shipped with the magnets and counter-timer in the parts box.
- Page 20 Slip the first panels into the front of the channels and bolt to the chains. The nuts go to the rear. Make the bolts firm, but not tight enough to sink the heads into the panels. If you are using a cordless drill, use a very low setting on the clutch.
- Page 21 Measure the distance between the frame and the side of the right channel. This space should be 3 1/2". Adjust the rear turnbuckles to make this space 3-1/2". These turnbuckles should be quite tight when you finish. If this spacing is wrong, it may be difficult to lock the chrome ring onto the stud.
- Page 22 Side Covers, Mat, Holds and Post Pads: Place the mat between the frames and attach the loops around the front legs of the frame. The short folded section goes to the rear. The standard Treadwall hold set has 40 holds. Unpack all the holds and lay them out on the mat in front of the machine.
- Page 23 Treadwall Wiring – Counter-Timer and Photocell Alignment COUNTER-TIMER WIRING The timer-counter installs onto the side of the left channel using the stud at the end of the spacer- bar. There are three wires that connect to the timer-counter: 1) Power supply: This is the gray cord that is part of the photocell assembly wiring. After attaching the photocell wires to the hydraulic assembly, lead the gray wire across the spacer-bar to the left channel and out the hole in the channel.

Page 24: Purging The Hydraulic System
Instruction Card: A laminated instruction card with a ball chain is included with the Treadwall. Hang it from the right frame on the cable attachment pin. This pin uses a split ring instead of a cotter pin, and the instruction card hangs from this ring. Purging the Hydraulic System: Sometimes when the Treadwall is first assembled, the control system runs a bit rough and noisy - almost a grinding sound - and the wall doesn't descend smoothly. - Page 25 The last word: NOBODY LIKES GOING BACK! Treadwalls get installed in the darndest places, sometimes hundreds of miles from where installers call home. Making that long trip across the panhandle and down through the wastelands to fix some stupid little problem is a project to avoid, even if you have a keen appreciation for deja-vue.
