IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND WARNINGS
Failure to read and comply with any of the limitations noted herein can result in serious
bodily injury or death, and/or property damage.
Equipment described in this manual is not designed for and should not be used for lifting,
supporting, or transporting humans.
To ensure the good working order and reliable operation of your hoist, strictly adhere to the
requirements for that installation provided in this manual.
Strictly adhere to the requirements for safe operation to prevent danger to personnel and
damage to the electric hoist.
Repairs shall be completed only with parts supplied by the manufacturer.
The connection of the bridge panel power cable to the crane runway power supply shall be
completed only by a qualified electrician.
Assembly and commissioning of the crane system shall only be done by qualified persons,
authorized by CMCO.
Modifications to upgrade, re-rate, or otherwise alter this equipment shall be authorized only
by the original equipment manufacturer or qualified professional engineer.
Equipment described in this manual may be used in the design and manufacture of cranes.
Additional equipment or devices may be required for the crane to comply with applicable
crane design and safety standards. The crane designer, crane manufacturer, or user is
responsible for finishing these additional items for compliance. Refer ASME B30.2 Safety
Standard for Top-Running Double-Girder Cranes. If a below-the-hook lifting device or sling
is used with a hoist, refer to ASME B30.9, Safety Standard for Slings, or ASME B30.20,
Safety Standard for Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices.
Hoists and cranes used to handle hot molten material may require additional equipment or
devices. Refer to ANSI Z241.2, Safety Requirements for Melting and Pouring of Metals in
the Metalcasting Industry.
The hoists are not designed to operate in a chemically aggressive and explosive
environment.
Working in or near exposed energized electrical equipment presents the danger of electric shock.
WARNING
Before installing, removing inspecting, or performing any maintenance on a hoist, the main switch
shall be de-energized. Lock and tag the main switch in the de-energized position in accordance
with ANSI Z244.1.
Follow other maintenance procedures outlined in this manual and applicable ASME B30 volumes.
Additional WARNINGS are listed in various portions of this manual. Personnel shall read and
follow these WARNINGS. Failure to read and comply with these WARNINGS as well as other
instructions or any limitations noted in this manual and applicable ASME B30 volumes could result
in serious bodily injury or death, and/or property damage.

Read and observe the instructions and warnings contained in this manual. Read and
observe any instructions and warning tags attached to the hoist.
Check for any damage to the components during shipment. If any damage has occurred,
place a claim with the carrier. DO NOT install damaged components.
Check wire rope for damage and proper spooling on the drum. Be sure rope is properly
seated in drum grooves and sheaves. Make sure both of the rope ends are tightly secured.
After each rope replacement, as well as after repair and reassembling of the electric hoist,
check the phasing and direction of operation. Verify the hook position of all limit switches
per the hoist manual.
Be certain that power supply to bridge control panel has the same voltage, frequency, and
phase that are specified on the bridge control panel nameplate.
Before performing maintenance and repair activities, make sure that there is no load on
the hook, the power supply switch is turned offand unauthorized switching is prevented
through lockout and tagout procedures.
Check the load hook for cracks and deformations and verify proper operation of the release
latch.
The bridge frame shall not be considered electrically grounded through the end truck
wheels and its respective tracks. A separate runway bonding conductor must be provided.
WARNING
Hazardous voltages are present in the control enclosure, other electrical components, and
connections between these components.
Before performing any mechanical or electrical maintenance on the equipment, disconnect the
main switch supplying power to the equipment and implement lockout/tagout procedure. Refer to
ANSI Z244.1, personnel protection - lockout/tagout of energy sources.
DO NOT operate the equipment without control enclosure cover or covers in place.
Only trained and competent personnel should inspect and repair this equipment.

P/N: C11746308 REV. AB June 2022

If hoist has a trolley, check that the crane bridge beam is level, straight, and clean. Check
that trolley stops are installed, or install trolley stops, at the open end or ends of the beam
to prevent the trolley from traveling offthe beam. Trolley stops that engage trolley wheels
are not recommended. Check that trolley stops will prevent overhanging parts of the hoist
and trolley from interfering with other equipment beyond the ends of the beam.
Daily, before starting work, check the operation of the brake and the limit switches.
Do not use a limit switch as an operational limit in any case.
Do not leave the lifted load out of sight.
Do not exceed the rated capacity.
Do not lift loads at an angle and do not drag them.
Do not try to detach firmly fixed loads (e.g., frozen to the ground).
Do not change or modify the electric diagram. Do not use the pushbuttons and limit
switches for other purposes but those indicated.
Equipment covered herein is not designed or suitable as a power source for lifting or
lowering persons. Lifting and moving of loads over personnel is not allowed.
Warning signs and barriers shall be utilized on the floor beneath the crane or area where
the hoist will be installed.
WARNING
Damage to the hoist, a droped load, and injury may result if limit switches fail due to improper use.
Under normal operating conditions,stop hoist travel before engaging limit switches. Limit switches
are safety devices and should not be used as normal opertating control.
WARNING
Only qualied personnel with proper supervision shall install the hoist on the monorail and
perform the nal pre-operation inspection.
Before installing, removing, inspecting, or performing any maintenance on a hoist, the main switch
shall be de-energized. Lock and tag the main switch in the de-energized position in accordance
with ANSI Z244.1.
Follow other maintenance procedures outlined in the manual and applicable ASME B30 volumes.
Additional WARNINGS are listed in various portions of this manual. Personnel shall read and
follow these WARNINGS. Failure to read and comply with these WARNINGS as well as other
instructions or any limitations noted in this manual and applicable ASME B30 volumes could
result in serious bodily injury or death, and/or property damage.

FOR BRIDGE BEAM WITH
CAPPING CHANNEL
(AS REQUIRED)

P/N: C11746308 REV. AB June 2022
9
STEP 1: CUT GIRDER AND C-CHANNEL (AS REQUIRED)
Check your configuration to see if a capping channel is required.
CUT LENGTH TO BE DETERMINED BY SPAN LENGTH
STEP 2: CHECK CAMBER (AS REQUIRED)
WARNING

ALL WELD IS TO BE AWS CLASS E-70XX OR EQUIVALENT
STEP 4: CLAMPING GIRDER AND C-CHANNEL (AS REQUIRED)
NOTICE
Assembly of beam and channel requires
welding. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO
