Installing and connecting the panel

Depending on the crane design, a panel is now installed, or one of the versions in the following or previous sections.

 

Only with a control in the panel

This section only applies when the jib crane control is placed in a panel.

 

Installing the bracket

─     The panel is usually installed so that it is on the same side as the trolley power supply, and points outwards and downwards.

─     If necessary, the panel can also be installed on the opposite side.

─     If necessary, the panel can also be installed pointing upwards. Alternatively, the panel can also be installed pointing upwards and inwards.

 

The figures show the installation of a suspended panel on the same side as the trolley power supply. The installation of a panel pointing upwards, or a panel suspended on the other side, is, essentially, no different.
