1.3. Key guidelines
1. The tirak™ transport trolley is designed to
move the tirak™ hoist safely and
ergonomically using free-rotating (non-
motorised) rolling parts.

case, the operator must ensure that they
are able to handle the trolley and the
tirak™ hoist in a safe and controlled
manner.
3. The tirak™ transport trolley can be used
on rough or uneven surfaces such as
compacted earth, gravel, concrete, or
natural wood slats.
4. The trolley is designed to be used by one
person at a time. Simultaneous use by two
or more persons may cause injury to the
persons concerned.
5. It is essential that you read this manual for

5. Installation
5.1. Assembling the wheel set
1. Thread the locking bolt into the nut welded
onto the rear of the chassis (fig. 11 and
12).
2. Check the correct movement of the locking
bolt pin by pulling its arm. Once released,
it must return to its starting position.
3. Secure the locking bolt by tightening the
locknut.
4. Pull the arm of the locking bolt and insert
the axle of the wheel assembly into its
housing on the chassis, lining up the hole
in the axle with the pin of the locking bolt.
5. Release the handle of the locking bolt and
check that the axle of the wheel assembly
is fixed in place by the pin.
5.2. Mounting the stabiliser
1. Thread the locking bolt into the nut welded
onto the stabiliser leg (fig. 13).
2. Check the correct movement of the locking
bolt pin by pulling its arm. Once released,
it must return to its starting position.
3. Secure the locking bolt by tightening the
locknut.
4. Pull the arm of the locking bolt and insert
the stabiliser into the front legs of the
chassis, lining up the hole in the left foot
(seen from the front) with the pin of the
locking bolt.
5. Release the handle of the locking bolt and
check that the axle of the stabiliser is fixed
in place by the pin.
5.3. Mounting the control arm
1. Thread the locknut locking bolt into the nut
welded onto the control arm housing on
the rear of the chassis (fig. 14)
2. Check the correct movement of the locking
bolt pin by pulling its arm. Once released,
it must return to its starting position.
3. Secure the locking bolt by tightening the
locknut.
4. Pull the arm of the locking bolt and insert
the control arm into the chassis housing so
that one of the holes in the control arm
lines up with the pin on the locking bolt.

8
GB
5. Release the arm of the locking bolt and
check that the axle of the control arm is
fixed in place by the pin.
The height of the control arm
can be adjusted to adapt to the
operator (see section 6.1).
5.4. Hoist installation
In order to avoid trapping or injury to
the operator due to unwanted
movement of the transport trolley, it
must be locked before installing the tirak™
hoist.
1. Place the tirak™ hoist on the underside of
the chassis, slightly offset to the left
(viewed from the front).
2. Slide the tirak™ to the right (seen from the
front) until its rear part (drum housing) fits
into the clamping tab (fig. 15).
3. Place the 4 bolts through the rear of the
chassis, lining them up with the holes in
the tirak™ hoist housing.
4. Place the 4 ring pins through the holes on
the bolts (fig. 16).
6. Use
6.1. Moving the tirak™ hoist
1. Pull the arm of the locking bolt located on
the rear of the chassis and slide the control
arm up or down, depending on the
operator's preference, until the pin on the
locking bolt fits into one of the holes in the
control arm.
2. Firmly grasp the control arm from the rear
of the trolley and gently pull to tilt it slightly
towards the operator.
3. Pull the trolley to start moving.
Do not start moving it abruptly or
tilting the transport trolley too much
as the operator could be injured or
trapped if it falls.
6.2. Anchoring the tirak™ Hoist
The tirak™ transport trolley must
only be usedas a means of transport.
Under no circumstances must it be
considered an anchor point.
Once the trolley is positioned in the required
location, the tirak™ hoist must be attached to a
verified anchor point:
1. Thread an M16 bolt through the hole
provided for anchoring on the lower part of
the housing.
2. Insert an extension plate (fig. 17) or a
shackle, hook or carabiner onto the M16
bolt (none of these parts are supplied).
3. Tighten the bolt.
More details can be found in the
tirak™ hoist operation and
maintenance manual.
7. Inspection and maintenance
7.1. Before each use
Before startingany operation, the operator must
carry out a visual inspection of the device. Look
carefully for any damage to the chassis and
wheels.
If any of the following situations occur,
do not use the tirak™ transport trolley:
1. Check that the wheels are properly
secured to the chassis with the locking bolt
pin correctly inserted into the hole in the
axle and the snap rings in place.
2. Check that the handle arm is properly
secured to the chassis with the locking bolt
pin correctly inserted into the hole in the
control arm.
3. Check the chassis for deformation at the
points where the tirak™ hoist is attached.
4. Check that the bolt with hole and ring pin
are in good condition and in their working
positions.

9
GB
7.2. Annually
1. Check the tyre pressure according to the
inscription on the side.
2. Uncouple the wheel assemblies from the
chassis and check the condition of the
holes wherethe locking bolt pin is inserted.
These should not be oval in shape.
3. Uncouple the control arm from the chassis
and check the condition of the holes where
the locking bolt pin is inserted. These
should not be oval in shape.
4. Pull the arm of the locking bolts and check
the correct movement of the pin. Once
released, it must return to its starting
position.
8. Spare parts list
The following table is a non-exhaustive list of
the parts that can be replaced throughout the
service life of the tirak™ transport trolley due to
