SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Read these instructions and ASME B30.11 Safety Standards for Overhead Hoists before installing,
operating, or maintaining this equipment.
• Always check the beam trolley for deformed parts before putting unit into use.
• Always be well aware of the trolley’s load rating before using.
• Select an appropriate I-Beam, in good condition, which is capable of supporting the additional load.
• Beam must be properly installed and rated for anticipated loads.
• Do not install trolley on beams of unknown capacity.
• JET trolleys are designed to be used with hoists of the same rated capacity.
Never use a hoist with a capacity greater than the capacity of the trolley.
• Never subject the trolley to a side pull or load. Load must be centered directly under
the hoist/trolley assembly.
• Make sure load is stable and secure before moving.
• Never lift a load more than is necessary to safely move it.
• Always follow installation instructions.
• Never leave a load suspended when the hoist is unattended unless specific precautions
have been instituted and are in place.
• Never use trolley as a ground for welding.
• Never lift people or lift loads over people.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Measure the actual width of the beam on which the trolley is to be placed.
2. Assemble the required number of spacer washers equally to the inside of the trolley side plates so that
the dimension between the trolley wheel flanges is 1/4" greater than the beam width.
3. To extend trolley width, remove washer spacers from center bolt and place between the hanger bracket
and the spacer. Note: Washer spacers must be moved in sets of two, one on either side of the hanger
bracket, as the hanger bracket must always remain centered between the trolley side plates.
4. Once the trolley is spaced properly, install the remaining washer spacers on the center bolt (same
number on both sides) on the outside of the side plates. Install nuts firmly against the washers then
secure with lockout nuts.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
• The robust and simple design of these clamps will provide a long service life with minimal maintenance
or repair required.
• Avoid damage to the screw – keep dirt and grit away from the threading while in use.
• Periodically open the clamp jaws all the way, and clean any contaminants from the screw threads.
Apply a light coating of grease to prevent rust and provide lubrication.
• Protect the speed handle function from damage by keeping the lock nut fixed on the handle adaptor
in either straight or 90 degree position.
