ADJUST FOR SYSTEM OFFSET: To avoid tipping the base during use, the Variable Davit System must be adjusted to
account for offset. See Figures 7 and 8 for reference. To adjust for offset requirements:
Determine the operating offset of the Davit Mast: See Figure 7 for reference. Pin Positions (PP) are listed 1 - 4.
The Pin Positions regulate the Top Pulley (A4) and Bottom Pulley (A3) offsets. The first table within Figure 8 displays the
maximum offset (Max) and minimum offset (Min) for each pulley in all four Pin Positions. Maximum offset is determined
when the Adjustable Gusset is fully collapsed, with no visible threads. Minimum offset is determined when the Adjustable
Gusset is fully extended. Once the Pin Position is set, the second table within Figure 7 should be consulted for the
maximum load of each attachment point.
;
For use of the A1 attachment point, the distance of attachment from the Mast (Y) must be no greater than 15.0 in.
(38.0 cm).
Adjust the Davit Base for the Davit Mast: See Figure 8 for reference. Once the operating offset of the Davit Mast has
been determined, the Davit Base should be adjusted to match its requirements. The Base Pin Position (BPP) of each Leg
Assembly should be matched with the Pin Position of the Davit Mast. For example, a Pin Position of 4 on the Davit Mast
should be matched with a Base Pin Position of 4 on the Davit Base.
;
After the Davit Base has been adjusted, verify that the Davit Base is level again with use of the Level Indicator. If
necessary, make height adjustments of the Adjustable Feet.
