• Keep a ﬁ rst aid kit near by when operating equipment.

WARNING

CAUTION

WARNING

OPERA TOR SAFETY

• Protective clothing and equipment should be worn at all times.

• Wear protective clothing and equipment appropriate for the job. Avoid loose ﬁ tting clothing.

• Prolonged exposure to excessive noise can cause hearing loss. Wear suitable hearing protection such as ear plugs.

• Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the operator. Avoid distractions.

• Never let a minor or inexperienced person operate equipment.

PRODUCT SAFETY

• Inspect the entire product before operation.

• Replace parts that are cracked, chipped or damaged in any way before operation.

• Keep others away when making any adjustments to the unit.

PRACTICE SAFE MAINTENANCE

• Use proper tools and equipment when conducting maintenance, refer to this manual for additional information.

• Work in a clean dry area.

• Inspect all parts. Be sure parts are in good working condition and installed properly .

• Remove build up of grease, oil or any debris.

• Remove all tools and unused parts from equipment before beginning operation.

BE ALERT ON THE JOB SITE

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert and aware of the surroundings. Interface with the system only when it is safe to do so. Operating machinery while distracted can result in loss of machinery control.

WARNING

LOWER OR SUPPORT RAISED EQUIPMENT

During installation of the TruLink system:

• Do not work under raised booms without supporting them.

• Do not use support material made of concrete blocks, logs, buckets, barrels, or any other material that could suddenly collapse or shift positions.

• Make sure support material is solid, not decayed, warped, twisted, or tapered.

• Lower booms to ground level or on blocks.

• Lower booms and attachments to the ground before leaving the cab or operator’s station.

• Keep others away when making any adjustments to the unit.

PENGO TruLink Manual 5

PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

The Pengo® TruLink™ system allows operators installing helical piers to monitor and record all installation data. TruLink™ is a true torque system that delivers a high degree of accuracy (+/- 2%) while providing the operator with real time data. TruLink™ records actual torque being applied to the helical pile, the installation angle and the depth.

Toque is measured at two points within the connection pin located between the anchor drive attachment and the prime mover. The TruLink™ pin simply replaces the OEM pin ensuring that no additional height is added to the installation equipment. This feature is important in low clearance applications.

The systems patent pending technology contained within the pin omits downward (perpendicular) force. Isolating only the necessary torque values improves accuracy and durability. All gages and electronics are completely sealed for use in all installation environments.

The TruLink™ user interface is available in either a 4” or 8” touch screen display that can be easily mounted within the operating cab of most prime movers. The rugged display is housed in an IP67 rated weather and shock proof casing. The high visibility touch screen allows the operator to easily interface with the system during installation. The intuitive layout of the display indicates all data in real time.

All installation data is recorded independently for each pier and collectively for all helical piers on a given project. All data is stored within the display and is easily exported to a ﬂ ash drive. The data is saved in an industry standard ﬁ le format that can be exported into Microsoft® Excel. All data is easy to read and is ready for immediate job submittal without additional formatting.

Use of the Anti-Rotation Block is NOT optional. It must be used in order for the torque and inclinometer values to be accurate!

ANCHOR DRIVE TRULINK PIN INSTALLATION

NOTE: If your Anchor Drive does not have existing mounting holes located on the Bail Ears:

1) Place the TruLink Pin into the Bail Ears, ensuring the connecting port is facing up and parallel with the Anchor Drive.

2) Position the Anti-Rotation Block on the underside of the pin head (opposite of the connecting port) and mark the location of the holes. Drill two 7/16” diameter holes. The 30 and 40 series Drives require the holes to be tapped to M10 x 1.5 threads.

Install the appropriate adjustment screws into the bottom face of the block. Screw the

adjustment screws all the way into the block. The adjustment screws need to be installed before the block can be bolted to the Bail Ears.

Once the Anti-Rotation Block is in place the

TruLink Pin can now be installed. Position the

Link Arm or desired mounting bracket between the Bail Ears. Install the TruLink Pin with the large end of the pin facing the front of the Anchor Drive. See ﬁ gure 5A.

Note: Do NOT hammer or tap the Pin into place. The Pin should slide easily through the Bail Ear Bushings.

Figure 4A

Link Arm

Install adjustment screws first before bolting block to Bail.

ATTENTION!

If the TruLink Pin is not easily installed use the Installation Rod provided. Instructions on how to use the Installation Rod are listed on page 12.

Push the Pin into the Drive as far as it will go.

The head of the Pin should align with the Anti-

Rotation Block. The opposite end of the Pin should be ﬂ ush with the outer-edge of the bushing. The Pin should not protrude past the bushing. See ﬁ gure 6A.

Install the Pin End Cap by inserting the provided

dowel into the small off center hole in the end

of the Cap. Align the dowel and the main hole of the End Cap with the dowel hole and threaded hole on the end of the TruLink Pin.

ANCHOR DRIVE TRULINK PIN INSTALLATION

Slide the Anti-Rotation Block tight up against the

head of the TruLink Pin eliminating any gap between

the Pin and the block. Unscrew the adjustment screws until they make contact with the top surface of the Bail. Make sure the adjustment screws are of equal length and the block remains parallel with the Bail top plate. See ﬁ gure 7A.

Secure the End Cap to the TruLink Pin using

appropriate class on Pin being installed. The chart lists the correct tightening torque for the socket head cap screws. When screws are to be tightened or replaced, refer to this chart to determine the proper torque.

When installing the TruLink Pin into the Drive it might be necessary to use the Pin-Install Rod. The Install Rod is designed to draw the TruLink Pin through the Drive ears. The T ruLink Pin can not be forced into place. The Pin should slide easily through the bushings. When needed use the Install Rod as shown below.

Position the two end nuts on the Rod and adjust according to the amount of Rod required to effectively

pull the TruLink Pin through the ears of the Drive. Using two 7/8” wenches tighten the end nuts against one another. See ﬁ gure 2B.

Hold the 2nd Nut tight while steadily turning the nut

closest to the End Cap in a clockwise motion. This

action will draw the TruLink Pin through the ears of the Drive. Be careful not to apply too much pressure as this may damage the threaded hole in the end of the TruLink Pin. See ﬁ gure 3B.

TRULINK PIN / CABLE CONNECTION

Depending on the distance from the Anchor Drive to the Display select the appropriate Cable(s). All T ruLink systems have a Main Cable and an Extension Cable.

Main Cable will connect to the display harness and the TruLink Pin if the length is sufﬁ cient. Extension Cable (if necessary) connects the Main Cable to the TruLink Pin.

Note: Ensure that the cable(s) have enough “slack” to allow for full range or movement . Most cables can be run next to the hydraulic hoses.

Attach the selected cable to the TruLink

Pin. Be sure to align the pins inside the

cable connector with the holes on the TruLink connecting base. The tab and slot must align with each other in order to ensure a positive connection. See ﬁ gure 1C.

On class 3 & 4 TruLink systems it is

a Junction Box and Jib Cable close to the Anchor Drive will allow for easy disconnect. Using a Jib Cable near the Anchor Drive will prevent damage to the Main Cable and is easier to replace in the event the cable is damaged. See ﬁ gure 2C.
