3) To avoid an unbalanced load, center hanger shaft between trolley plates using properly installed spacer
washers.
4) Before installing, read "SAFETY INFORMATION."
5) The total clearance between the beam and the trolley wheel flanges is 1/16 to 1/8 in (1.6 to 3.2 mm)
maximum per side. (Refer to Dwg. T-01 & T-02).
6) Trolley wheels ride on the top of the lower flange of the beam.
7) Trolleys have universal wheels for mounting on flat or tapered beams.
8) Install manual chain hoists so that hoist hand chain is on opposite side of trolley hand chain.
9) Visually inspect components for distortion, wear and damage during installation. Replace any item indicating
damage, distortion and/or excessive wear.
10) Depending on the size you select, the trolley alone may weigh more than 400 lb (180 kg). If parts of the
trolley or hoist are dropped, they can cause severe injure or damage property. Adequately support the
trolley when lifting into place on the beam.
The four most important aspects of operation are:
1) Follow all safety instructions when operating.
2) Allow only people instructed in safety and operation of this product to operate.
3) Subject each trolley to regular inspections and a scheduled maintenance program.
4) Be aware of the hoist and trolley capacity and weight of load at all times. Do not overload.
1) After trolley installation ensure the side plates are vertical.
2) With hoist installed, verify that hoist is centered below trolley.
3) Raise a load equal to the lower of the rated capacities of either the trolley or hoist a few inches (cm) off the
floor.
4) To move an unloaded hoist/trolley, push on the hoist load chain.
5) To move a loaded hoist/trolley, push on the load or the hoist load hook shank.
6) When operating the trolley keep load as close to the floor as practical.
Trolleys are equipped with sealed bearings which require no lubrication.
Geared Pinion Shaft
Lubricate pinion before installing in geared side plate. For temperatures -20° to 50° F (-29° to 10° C) use EP 1
grease or equivalent. For temperatures 30° to 120° F (-1° to 49° C) use EP 2 grease or equivalent.
Geared Trolley Wheels
Lubricate exposed trolley drive pinion and wheel teeth. Brush with grease as often as necessary to keep teeth
liberally covered. If the grease becomes contaminated with sand, dirt or other abrasive materials, clean off old
grease and brush on new. For temperatures -20° to 50° F (-29° to 10° C) use EP 1 grease or equivalent. For
temperatures 30° to 120° F (-1° to 49° C) use EP 2 grease or equivalent.
INSPECTION
There are two types of inspection: the frequent inspection performed by the operator and periodic inspections
performed by personnel trained in inspection and maintenance of the trolley. Careful inspection on a regular basis
will reveal potentially dangerous conditions while still in the early stages, allowing corrective action to be taken
before the condition becomes dangerous. Any deficiency revealed through inspection must be reported to an
appointed person. A determination must be made as to whether a deficiency constitutes a safety hazard before
resuming operation of the trolley or hoist.
Records and Reports
Some form of inspection record should be maintained for each trolley, listing all points requiring periodic inspection.
A written report should be made quarterly on the condition of the critical parts (e.g. wheels, bearings, side plates
and hoist hanger shaft) of each trolley. These reports should be dated, signed by the person who performed the
inspection, and kept on file where they are readily available to authorized personnel.
