Loading and unloading the overhead travelling crane

 

Warnung Vorsicht

Danger to persons from falling components!

The crane can fall and kill or injure people if it is not correctly attached and lifted. Attachment and loading should only be carried out by trained persons.

 

 

Observe the following points amongst others:

 

Attaching the main girders

Lifting tackle

 

 

Edge protection
(e.g. wooden beams)

*   Place suitable lifting tackle around the main girders.

*   Cover all edges of the main girder with suitable edge protection.

 

 

Only with energy chains

*   If the profile rails (in which the energy chain is) protrude to the side, lay wooden beams (wider than the profile rails) over the profile rails so that they are not damaged on lifting.

 

 

*   Adjust the lifting tackle in such a way that the main girder hangs straight when it is lifted.

 

 

Setting down the main girders

*   Set down the main girders on stands which have sufficient load capacity.

With the trolley installed underneath the main girder: The stands must be at least high enough that the rope is not buckled or pinched. Ideally, the stands should be high enough that the trolley load hook hangs freely.

 

 

Attaching the trolley

Suspension eyelets

*   Use suitable lifting tackle with load hooks.

*   Connect at least three load hooks in the suspension eyelets to the trolley.

*   Observe the occupational health and safety requirements and lift the trolley.

 

 

Setting down the trolley

*   Set down the trolley on stands which have sufficient load-bearing capacity.

The stands must be so high that the load hooks of the trolley hang freely.
