Installation and Assembly

The ET-C Series trolley is designed to run on standard “I” beams, w ide-flanged “ H” beams, or curved track w it h a minimum radius shown in the chart on page 5.

Mount Trolley to Beam

The trolley is heavy; use an

assistant or a liftin g devi ce t o help stabilize it while you assemble it to t he beam.

1. Loosen the hex nuts (A, Figure 2) on the

adjusting screw, and remove the adjusting screw.

2. Remove the two hex nuts (B, Figure 2) with

the plate (C, Figure 2).

Figure 2

6. Re-install the plate (C) and tw o hex nuts ( B), and tighten the hex nuts.

7. Reinstall the adjusting screw a nd hex nuts (A) and adjust to the proper width.

8. Double-check the wheel clearance on the beam, and make further adjustments if necessary.

Power and Pendant Cords

NOTE: A penda nt cord is not s upplied with t he trolley, and must be purchased separ at ely. I f you need to change the voltage requireme nts on the trolley, it is more convenient to do that before installing a pendant cord. See “Voltage Conversion” o n page 9.

1. Thread the cord holder (Figure 3) into the hole on the motor side plate and tig hten the jam nut and lock washer. The ring on the cord holder should be positio ned vertically.

3. Slide out the suspension shaft with the spacers ( D, Figure 2).

4. Assemble the trolley to the beam. The trolley must be installed on a beam with a mi nimum clearance (wheels to flange) of 1/16” to a maximum of 1/8” on each side of the beam (see Figure 1, page 5). Position the side plates (E, Figure 2) to achieve this measureme nt on your beam.

5. Re-install the suspension shaft, while using the spacers (D) to achieve the required width. Spacers must be moved in sets of two, placing equal numbers on bot h sides of the hoist hanger to maintain the centerline of the trolley. Place a ny extra spacers on the outside of the shaft, as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 3

2. Insert the male plug of the pe ndant cord into the socket on the trolley. See Figure 4. Secure the connection by tightening the cover nut with your fingers.

3. Attach the pendant cord to the cord holder. The cord must be secured to the cord holder in a way that relieves strain on the connectio ns. One method of do ing this is to form a loop in the pendant cord and place the cable tie as shown in Figure 5. Do not tighten the cable tie yet.

4. Create sufficient slack in the pendant cord where it pass es under the I-beam (Fig ure 6) so that the cord will not rub against the beam.

5. Tig hte n the c able tie to secure t he pe nda nt cord to the cord holder.

Mounting Your Hoist

This trolley has bee n designed to wor k wit h the JET C-Series Hoist . They can be connected so that one pendant cord and power cord will operate both trolley and hoist. Make sure the hoist has been set to the same voltage specificatio ns as the trolley.

Make connect io ns fr om the trolley to y our hoist as follows:

1. H ang t he hoi st o n t he t r oll ey ha ng er , usi ng hook or lug mount. (See page 8 for instructions on installing the optional lug mount.) The hoist should be positioned so that the electrical socket on the trolley is on the same side as the sockets on the hoist, as shown in F igure 6.

Figure 4

Figure 5

2. Remove the power cord and pendant cord from the hoist.

3. Connect the two 4P and 7P plugs of the trolley cords into their appropriate sockets on the ho ist .

Figure 6

Installing Lug Mount Access ory

1. Assemb le the s ide plates , hoist hanger a nd lug mounting shaft, as shown in Figure 7.

2. Install the hinge plates, lock washers and hex cap screw t o secure the assembly.

3. On the electric hoist, remove the two screws, hook pin plate, hook pin, etc. (Figure 8)

4. Remove the top hook assembly from the hoist, and replace it with the lug mount accessory as s hown in Figure 9. Re-install the hook pi ns, hook pin plates , screws and washers. Firmly tig hten the screws.

Electrical Instructions

Electrical connections must

be made by a qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant codes. This machine must be prop erly grounded t o help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal injury.

Figure 7

Grounding

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding pro vides a path of least r esist ance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

This machine’s power cord must be fitted with an appropriate UL/CS A listed plug, or it ca n be “hard-wired” directly to a control panel. If hardwired, make sure a disconnect is available for the operator.

If a plug is i nstalled, it must have an equip mentgrounding conductor and a grounding prong. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance wit h all local codes and or dinances. Do not modify the plug.

Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipmentgrounding connec tor. If r epair or replaceme nt of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect t he equipment-gr ounding conductor t o a live terminal.
