3.1.1 When the SMR trolley is combined with a hoist, follow and complete all pre-operational procedures
provided with the hoist. For Harrington SNER model hoists, follow the pre-operational procedures in
the SNER Owner's Manual in conjunction with all information provided in this section for mounting and
electrical connections.
3.1.2 In addition to the information and procedures provided in this section for the SMR trolley, there are
specific details for using SNER hoists with SMR trolleys. Special mounting and wiring considerations
must be taken if the trolley is used with a hoist other than an SNER model.
3.1.3
WARNING
Never attempt to hook mount a hoist directly to the Suspension Shaft on the SMR
trolleys up to and including 3 Ton. These trolleys are designed to be used with a suspender only and
do not have the vertical clearance required for a hook to fit between the Suspension Shaft and trolley
beam.
3.1.4 Preparing SNER hoists for use with SMR trolley.
¼ to 2 Ton SNER – The standard suspension configuration uses Suspender T which orients the hoist
perpendicular to the trolley beam. Optional two-piece suspension method uses a Connection Yoke
and Suspender G, which orients the hoist parallel to the trolley beam. If the hoist is not equipped with
Suspender T or the Connection Yoke from the factory, remove the Top Hook Assembly from the hoist
and install Suspender T or the Connection Yoke as follows:
1) Refer to Figure 3-1.
2) Remove the four Controller Cover socket head bolts and allow the cover to swing fully open.
3) Loosen the three or four captive screws holding the electrical component mounting Plate against
the main body of the hoist and swing the plate out to access the required components.
4)Loosen one of two Machine Screws attaching Plate A and remove the second Machine Screw.
Allow Plate A to rotate out from the retaining slot in the bottom side of the Connection Shaft. Pull
out the Connection Shaft and remove the Top Hook Assembly.
5) Remove the Hoist Fixing Shaft.
6) Place Suspender T or the Connection Yoke on the top of the hoist. Line up the holes for the
Connection Shaft and the Hoist Fixing Shaft and reinsert the shafts.
7) Reassemble the remaining hoist components in reverse order of disassembly.
8) If installing the Connection Yoke, place the Connection Yoke Rubber and Suspender G in the top
of the Connection Yoke. Attach Suspender G to the Connection Yoke with the Yoke Bolt, Slotted
Nut and Split Pin (cotter pin).
3 Ton (030C) SNER – The 3 Ton (030C) SNER hoists (double fall) always use a Connection Yoke.
The standard suspension configuration uses Suspender T which orients the hoist perpendicular to the
trolley beam. Suspender G is available as an option and orients the hoist parallel to the trolley beam. If
the hoist is not equipped with Suspender T or G from the factory, remove the Top Hook Assembly from
the Connection Yoke and install the Suspender T or G as shown in Figure 3-2.

6.0 Maintenance & Handling
6.1 Lubrication
6.1.1 Lubricate the following trolley components with NLGI (National Lubricating Grease Institute) #2 or
equivalent grease.
6.1.2 Track Wheel Gear – Clean and re-grease the Track Wheel gears and motor output pinion every three
months (more frequently for heavier usage or severe conditions). Do not use an excessive amount of
grease and avoid getting any grease on the running surfaces of the Track Wheels or the beam.
6.1.3 Gear Box – The reduction gearing in the motor should be cleaned and lubricated at least once per year
for normal usage. Clean and lubricate the reduction gear assembly more frequently for heavier usage
or severe conditions. Gain access to the gears by removing the four bolts that mount the motor
assembly to the trolley Side Plate. Make sure to properly orient and reuse the neoprene gasket
between the motor and Side Plate.
6.1.4 Suspension Pins, Bolts and Shafts – Grease at least twice per year for normal usage (more frequently
for heavier usage or severe conditions).
6.2 Brake
6.2.1 The trolley motor brake is NOT adjustable.
6.2.2 Motor Brake Removal – Remove the four Bolts that attach the Motor Cover to the Motor Frame.
Carefully remove the Motor Cover, brake components, and Stator.
6.2.3 Brake Lining Inspection – The brake lining is designed for a long life and should provide years of
trouble-free service. If the brake lining is being inspected due to excessive trolley drift during operation
(see Section 5.7), disassemble the motor brake and inspect all motor brake parts. Braking surfaces
should be clean, free of grease/oil and should not be glazed. Replace the Brake Drum and/or Motor
Cover if necessary. For normal inspections, the Brake Lining and Motor Cover wear should be
measured as follows.
1) Refer to Table 5-6.
2) Measure the distance "A" using calipers and a straight edge. Make sure the Brake Drum is square
against the Motor Cover. Place the straight edge across the edge of the Brake Drum and measure
from the straight edge to the mounting face of the Motor Cover.
3) Compare the measurement with the values listed in Table 5-6. Replace the Brake Drum and/or
Motor Cover if the "A" measurement is smaller than the discard limit.
6.2.4 Motor Brake Installation - After the brake is inspected, carefully place the Stator and brake components
into the Motor Frame. Be sure to reseal the Motor Cover to Motor Frame surface using a small bead of
liquid (hi-temperature) sealant. Install the Motor Cover attachment bolts.
6.3 Storage
6.3.1 The storage location should be clean and dry.
6.3.2 Care should be take to not damage any of the electrical power cords or fittings.
6.4 Outdoor Installation
6.4.1 For trolley and hoist installations that are outdoors, the trolley and hoist should be covered and
protected from the weather when not in use.
6.4.2 Possibility of corrosion on components of the trolley increases for installations where salt air and high
humidity are present. The trolley may require more frequent lubrication. Make frequent and regular
inspections of the unit's condition and operation.
