Assembly
Parts
The plasterboard lift is supplied in parts which must be assembled before use:
Base
- Frame including hoist and11ft(123cm)/16ft(175cm) telescopic sections
- Cradle, without removable support arms
- Two support arms
Assembly instructions
-
Set the base up: Place the base on the floor so that it rests on its wheels.
Press the lock ring down. Hold the lock ring down while you swing the two front legs out so that the lock ring engages with the hole at the bottom of the tube. (See figure 1). To prevent the base rolling backwards while assembling it, flip the reverse brake down as shown. -
Position the frame on the two V angles on the base and lower the frame around 2.5 cm until it sits firmly in the angles.
Before continuing, make sure that the frame is pushed fully down and that it
is secure in the angles.
- Attach the handle to the handwheel for the hoist. Tighten the nut and then loosen it slightly so that the handwheel rotates freely.
- Move the hoist to the working position: Hold the handwheel and brake lever as shown in figure 2. Turn the handwheel slightly forward while lifting the brake lever to release the brake. Li 代 the brake lever up fully. Take hold of the strut by the hoist and hold the brake lever with your thumb. (See figure 3)
Once the hoist has been drawn completely out (away from the frame), release the brake lever and flip the lock hook away so that it no longer holds the telescopic sections
Place your right hand at the topof theframe. Continue to hold the brakelevertoavoid the wire retracting and pull thehoisttowards you. (See figure 4).
inside the frame.
- Press the hoist gently back towardstheframe. This allows the lock armtoengagewith the hoist and keep it fullyout. (Seefigure 5).
IMPORTANT! Before proceeding, makesure that the lock armhas engagedcorrectly, i.e. has turned as far clockwiseaspossible.
WARNING! In order to avoid an accident, the lock arm must be fully engaged when the hoist is pulled out.
- Attach the cradle to the frame (figure 6)
a. Insert the cradle strut into the opening at the top of the frame.
b. Secure the cradle to the frame by pressing the clip up over the lock pin so
that it clamps the cradle tight.
- Attach the support arms to the cradle:
NOTE!
The support arms are identical. a. Push the tapered plates on the support arms into the tapered sockets on the cradle. (See figure 7).
b. Push both support arms into the sockets until the lock tab at the bottom of each support arm engages. (See figure 8).
Operating parts
Lock ring
Press the lock ring down to release the two front legs so that they can be
rotated out to the working position or in to the storage position. A spring-
loaded tab engages with a hole at the bottom of the tube to lock the legs in
position.
Reverse brake
Flip’the reverse brake down to prevent the base from rolling backwards or flip
it up to allow it to move freely.
Outriggers
The outriggers on the support arms can be pulled out so that the plasterboard
lift can support a larger covering board. Pull the lock pin with your right
hand and pull the outrigger out using your left hand. The lock pin can secure
the outrigger in one of three positions: Folded in or extended by 53 or 84 cm.
IMPORTANT! Never load a covering board on the cradle and never use the
lift if the lock pins have not engaged in one of these three positions or if
the outriggers have been pulled out more than 84 cm.
To avoid damaging the outriggers push them in fully before transporting or
storing the plasterboard lift.
Support hooks for boards
Flip the support hooks on each support arm out to support the covering board
when placed on the cradle or when the cradle is tilted.
In order to avoid damaging the support hooks, push them in fully before
transporting or storing the plasterboard lift.
Lock arm
The lock arm keeps the hoist in the working position (fully extended).
To fold the hoist in towards the frame(whendismantling or for transport), turn
the hoist anticlockwise while lifting the lockarm. Whenyou reassemble the
plasterboard lift, pull thehoist out fully and then push It backinslightlyso
that It automatically engages withthelockarm.
Never tighten the nut on the lock arm, asyouwill then not be able to fold the
hoist for transport and storage.
Clip for tilt
Flip the clip out and down to tilt the cradle (to apply covering boards or
lifting covering boards for sloping walls or ceilings) or to remove the
cradle. You can secure the cradle on the frame without tilt by flipping the
clip up so that it engages with the lock pin on the cradle.
Note! When the cradle is in the horizontal position (not tilted), the
cradle can tilt up to +/-10 degrees.
Brake lever
A spring-loaded brake holds the cradle securely at the required height by
locking the hoists handwheel. When lowering the cradle, control the rotation
of the hoist by holding the handwheel as you carefully lift the brake lever to
release the brake.
Handwheel, handle and strut
When turning the hoist’s handwheel the wire will wind in or out and thus raise
or lower the cradle.
Hold the strut to provide resistance as you turn the handwheel.
Lock hook
The lock hook secures the telescopic sections inside the frame for transport
and storage.
Use
IMPORTANT! Read the section ‘Special safety instructions, before using the plasterboard lift.
WARNING! ALWAYS wear a helmet when
using the plasterboard lift.
WARNING! Only use the plasterboard lift for lifting covering boards. Only lift ONE board at a time!
Safety check before use
Each working day; perform the following checks before using the plasterboard li 代:
- Inspect the plasterboard lift thoroughly for wear and tear. Pay particular attention to the condition of the wire.
- Make sure the plasterboard lift has reached room temperature before use.
- Check that the brake drum is clean and dry.
Loading a covering board
-
Flip the reverse brake down so that the plasterboard lift does not roll backwards.
-
Flip the support hcoks on the support arms out. Make sure that the cradle is turned so that the support hooks are furthest away from the handwheel.
-
Pull the outriggers on the support arms out so that they can provide optimum support for the covering boards.
-
Release the dip so that the cradle cantilt.
-
Hold the covering board against thetiltedcradle with the outer side facingdown. Lower the covering board onto thesupporthooks and lay it carefully against thesupport arms.
-
If the covering board is to be mountedonaflat ceiling, tip the cradle up to thehorizontal position and tighten theclipsothat the cradle does not tilt. If the coveringboard is to be installed on a slopingwall orasloping ceiling, the cradle shouldremaintilted.
-
Lift the reverse brake on the base andcarefully roll the plasterboard lift tothespotwhere the covering board is to be installed.
Lifting the covering board
IMPORTANT! Always flip the reverse brake down before lifting the covering
board up towards a sloped wall or other wall.
Turn the handwheel round in the direction shown (hold the strut to provide
resistance) until the covering board is at the required height.
The brake is spring-loaded and automatically holds the cradle securely at the
required height when you stop turning the handwheel.
Lowering the covering board
- Take hold of the handwheel handle with your right hand so that you can control the rotation of the hoist.
- Keep tight hold of it. Carefully release the brake with your left hand and turn the handwheel slowly back to lower the cradle to the required height.
WARNING! To avoid accidents, be aware of any obstructions above the lift
when lifting boards.
CAUTION! The cradle drops quickly once the brake lever is released. So
grip the handle on the handwheel firmly with your right hand BEFORE releasing
the brake!
Dismantling
How to dismantle the plasterboard lift for transport and storage:
-
Lower the cradle fully.
-
Push the outriggers in fully until they engage. Fold the support hooks in.
-
Detach the support arms from the cradle by pressing the lock tab at the bottom and pulling the support arms out of the tapered sockets.
-
Release the dip for the tilt function. Lift the cradle about 7.5 cm until you can remove it from the frame.
-
Turn the handle forward one full revolution as shown. This lifts the inner telescopic section.
-
Release the hoist by lifting the lock arm with your left hand and turning the lock arm’s lock anticlockwise with your right hand.
-
Hold the lock arm’s lock in the released position (step 6), and push the telescopic sections down into the frame using your left hand. The hoist is now pulled towards the frame.
-
Lower the telescopic sections fully. Flip the lock hook up and turn the telescopic sections up slightly until they are held by the lock hook.
-
Hold the lock hook in this position with your left hand and turn the handwheel forward release the support arm with your right hand.
The hoist is pressed forward towards the frame. When the lock arm touches the frame, tighten the wire by turning the handwheel slightly (just enough to hold the hoist in that position).
- Carefully lift the frame and hoist around 2.5 cm to release it from the base.
- Fold the frame up by pressing the lock ring down and pressing the front legs in until they engage in the folded position.
