Raising and Lowering the Track Section Assembly

WARNING : KEEP TRACK SECTIONS MINIMUM 10 FT. CLEAR OF ALL ELECTRICAL WIRES AND EQUIPMENT. BE AWARE OF OVERHEAD WIRES BEFORE RAISING TRACK SECTIONS. ELECTRICITY KILLS!
The hoist assembly is extremely top heavy and must be kept under control at all times. Two alternate methods are suggested for raising the platform hoist to the operating position. ALWAYS USE APPROVED ROOF TOP FALL PROTECTION when setting up, operating and taking down the TranzVolt Hoist.

Procedure “A”
This procedure requires two or preferably three men.

  1. Lay the assembled track sections with the platform attached parallel to the building wall that is to support the hoist.

  2. Tie a rope to the head bracket and have the man on roof pull up the hoist while the other man on the ground braces the shoes on the bottom base section to prevent slippage of the hoist shoes. The third man on the ground may aid in erecting by “walking” the hoist up hand over hand by the rungs.

  3. When the hoist reaches a vertical position, carefully turn the hoist 90 degrees with the platform pointing away from the building. Move the bottom of the hoist away from the building 1/4 of the height of the building where the top of the hoist is to be supported. Make allowances for overhang.

  4. Tie the track section to the roof with a rope fastened to a cross tie on the top bracket to prevent slippage of the track section. See below.
    DO NOT TIE ROPE TO THE RAILS – THIS WILL PREVENT THE PLATFORM FROM OPERATING PROPERLY.

  5. Make certain the shoes on the steel bottom section are firmly resting on level ground. This will help to prevent track section slippage or uneven loading of the track section which could cause damage or injury to personnel and/or to equipment.

ALWAYS USE APPROVED ROOF TOP FALL PROTECTION when setting up, operating, and taking down the TranzVolt Hoist.

Procedure “B”
This procedure requires two or preferably three men.

  1. Place track section assembly perpendicular to the building with the bottom shoes of the steel bottom section resting against the building to prevent slipping.

  2. Tie a rope to the top bracket and have the man on the roof pull up the hoist while the other man on the ground braces the shoes on the steel bottom base section to prevent slippage of the hoist shoes. The third man on the ground may aid in erecting by “walking” the hoist up hand over hand by the rungs.

  3. When the hoist reaches a vertical position, carefully turn the hoist 180 degrees with the platform pointing away from the building.

  4. Move the bottom of the hoist away from the building 1/4 of the height of the building where the top of the hoist is to be supported. Angle of track sections from building should be between 18 and 20 degrees. Make allowances for an overhang.

  5. Tie the track section to the roof with a rope fastened to a cross tie on the top bracket to prevent slippage of the track section. See below. DO NOT TIE ROPE TO THE RAILS – THIS WILL PREVENT THE
    PLATFORM FROM OPERATING PROPERLY.

  6. Make certain the shoes on the steel bottom section are firmly resting on level ground. This will help to prevent track section slippage or uneven loading of the track section which could cause damage or injury to personnel and/or to equipment.

Secure the Top Cap
Option 1 Low Top Cap Attach with the Safety Pull Straps (included). Place the hooks through the holes in top cap. Attach to a mounted 2×4 on the side of the roof top.
NEVER ALLOW ANYTHING TO WRAP AROUND THE FRONT OF THE TRACK SECTION Option 2 High Top Cap
