Removing the Drum

must be backed off and the drum broken loose from the hub assembly.

3. Turn the crank handle counterclockwise until the drum dolly is in its lowest position.
4. Rest the hook back toward the handle.
5. Position the dolly under the drum until the drum stops meet the outer surface of the drum. Turn the crank
handle clockwise until the dolly meets the lower surface of the drum.
6. Lower the dolly handle to lift the drum slightly. Pull the dolly and drum back about four inches, away from
the brake assembly.

the cotterless pin (14), and move the hook to any one of three hole locations.
8. Pull the drum completely away from the brake assembly. Slowly and carefully lift the handle to place the
drum face down on the floor, being cautious of the transfer of load weight.
