Installing the trolley power supply and mobile control

The trolley power supply and the mobile control (option) are now installed on the jib arm.

The direction in which the trolley power supply is installed (on the left or right side of the jib arm) is specified in the planning documents.

The figures show installation of the trolley power supply and mobile control on the same side. The installation of the trolley power supply and mobile control on the opposite side is, essentially, no different.

 

 

Installing mounting brackets

Remaining mounting brackets distributed evenly

Front mounting bracket at a distance of 200 mm from the jib tip

 

Rear mounting bracket above the jib bracket

*   Place the first and last mounting bracket in position on the jib arm:

─     On the jib tip: place the front mounting bracket in position at a distance of 200 mm in front of the jib tip.

─     At the jib arm start point: position the first mounting bracket 50 mm next to the holes in the direction of the jib tip over the jib bracket.

*   Place all other mounting brackets in position evenly spaced between them.

Maximum distance between mounting brackets: 1700 mm.

 

For a pendant control on the trolley only

 

Jib arm

Mounting bracket

Clamping claws

Rail mount

*   Bolt the mounting bracket on the jib arm using clamping claws (2x) on the left and right side. 23 Nm.

*   Insert the rail mount (1x) into the mounting bracket.

 

 

 

 

Only with mobile control

The figures show installation of the trolley power supply and mobile control on the same side. The installation of the trolley power supply and mobile control on the opposite side is, essentially, no different.

 

 

 

Mounting bracket

Clamping claw

Rail mount

*   Bolt the mounting bracket on the jib arm using clamping claws (2x) on the left and right side. 23 Nm.

*   Insert the rail mount (2x) into the mounting bracket.

Distance between two rail mounts: 120 mm to 150 mm.

 

 

 

Installing C-rails

 

C-rails

*   Insert C-rails for the trolley power supply into the rail mount.

The C-rails run parallel to the jib arm. The C-rails may protrude a little in front of the first mounting bracket and behind the last mounting bracket.

*   Only with mobile control: insert the C-rails for the mobile control parallel to it as well.

*   Tighten all rail mounts. 23 Nm.

 

 

Connect two C-rails to each other:

C-rail

C-rail

 

Rail connector

*   Push the rail connector onto the C-rail.

*   Push the second C-rail into the rail connector.

*   Tighten the hexagon head screws M6x12 on all three sides so that there is no offset between the inner surfaces of the C-rails.

The smaller the offset between the C-rails is, the better the trolley power supply or the mobile control will move.

*   Screw on hexagonal nuts M6. 4 Nm.

 

 

Installing the end stopper

On the jib tip:

C-rail

End stopper

*   Push the end stopper into the C-rail for the trolley power supply.

*   Tighten the end stopper with a hexagon head screw M8x20. 23 Nm.

*   Only with mobile control: push the end stopper into the C-rail for the mobile control as well, and tighten it.

 

 

Inserting the festoon cable system for the trolley power supply into the C-rail

Only with mobile control

 

The planning documents specify into which of the C-rails the trolley power supply is inserted, and into which the mobile control is inserted.

 

 

 

 

At jib arm start point:

Cable carrier with plastic castors

Cable carrier with metal castors

*   Push the cable carrier with metal castors into the C-rail first.

*   Then push the cable carrier with plastic castors into the C-rail in the correct order.

 

 

End terminal

 

*   Last of all, push the end terminal into the C-rail.

*   Push the end terminal in until it reaches approx. 50 mm before the end of the C-rail.

*   Screw the end terminal in place. 23 Nm.

 

 

Only with mobile control

 

Inserting the festoon cable system for the mobile control

At jib arm start point:

Cable carrier

 

 

Control trolley

*   From the jib arm start point: first, push the control trolley into the C-rail.

*   Then push the cable carriers into the C-rail in the correct order.

 

 

End terminal of the mobile control

End terminal of the trolley power supply

*   Last of all, push the end terminal (2x) into the C-rail.

*   Push the end terminals until they reach approx. 50 mm before the end of the C-rail.

*   Screw the end terminal in place. 23 Nm.
