ACCESSORIES
HOOK SUSPENSIONS
Swivel- and rigid-type hook suspensions are available for all
Lodestar Electric Hoists. Rigid-type hook suspensions are normally
recommended for most applications. The hook suspensions are
intended for suspending the hoist from a trolley which has a single
load bar (such as CM
Series 632 and 633 Trolleys) or for
®
suspending the hoist from a fi xed structure.

CHAIN CONTAINER

This accessory (see Figure 1) is used to hold slack chain and it is
supplied complete with mounting hardware and instructions. The
chain container is recommended for those applications where the
slack chain would interfere with the load or drag on the fl oor as may
be the case with double- or triple-reeved units. Chain containers can
be furnished for units already in use.
LATCHLOK
HOOKS
®
CM Latchlok hooks (see Figure 2) are available to replace the
standard upper and lower hooks used on the Lodestar Electric
Hoists.

LUG SUSPENSION

Lug suspensions are available for all Lodestar Electric Hoists.
These are rigid-type suspensions wherein the lug replaces the hook
in the suspension adapter. The lug suspensions are required for
suspending the hoist from the Series 635 Low Headroom, Motor
Driven and Universal Trolleys described in the following sections.

SERIES 635 LOW HEADROOM TROLLEY

These are manual push-type trolleys (see Figure 3) designed for
use with Lodestar Electric Chain Hoists. A rigid lug suspension
is required to suspend the hoist from the trolley. The trolley is
adjustable for operation on a range of American Standard "S"
beams. It will also operate on fl at fl anged beams.
