Installing the drive

 

The images show the installation of an AZF drive on a double girder travelling crane. There installation of an AZF drive on a single girder travelling crane or on a double-rail trolley (types D, DA, DQA, Z and ZA) does not significantly differ from this.

 

Only for a drive which is installed on an ABUS crane

 

*   Determine the weight of the drive. See Technical data.

*   Secure the drive so that the weight can be held safely and the output shaft will not be subject to load (e.g. insert in round sling).
