CRANE ASSEMBLY WARNING

It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the building structures and crane mounting points can withstand the forces exerted by the crane. The necessary information is provided before the crane order is confirmed. Failure to fulfill the requirements could cause the crane to collapse, resulting in death or serious injury.

WARNING

It is absolutely vital to use original fastenings supplied by the manufacturer. Other fastenings may not fulfill quality requirements which may cause a hazardous situation. This COULD result in crane collapse causing death or serious injury.

NOTE: Illustrations used in this manual are only examples and may differ from the actual supplied equipment. For exact technical design, see supplied drawings.

NOTE: Before starting the actual assembly, gather the crane components and other installation equipment close to the crane assembly work site. Check that all parts are present and are in good condition.

6.1

Installing the pillar with anchor bolts CAUTION

The crane SHALL only be assembled after the foundation concrete is completely dry and hardened.

CAUTION

If the pillar is not sufficiently vertical, the jib arm could move by itself. This may cause hazardous situations, for example collisions or injuries.

NOTE: In most cases the owner prepares the foundation ready for crane installation. Consequently the installer will usually find that the first steps in the following procedure have already been completed.

NOTE: The crane base plate and fastening bolts must be accessible at all times.

1

24/76

Before the jib crane can be erected, the template must be correctly installed into the foundation. The template is only used to hold the anchor bolts in the correct position until the concrete is dry. Install anchor bolts into the template so that at least 130mm of thread will protrude above floor level. Fasten with M27 nuts and washers on both sides of the template. Cover the threads which will be above floor level so that they do not get splashed with concrete.



2

Install the power supply cable before pouring the primary foundation. The primary foundation concrete (C25/30 quality) for the template must be at least 1m deep and finish flush with the floor level.

3

that the bolts are vertical in the foundation before it is dry.

4

After the concrete has hardened, remove the: •protection from the bolts •top nuts and washers •template Check that the remaining nuts and washers are level so that the top of the washers is approximately 50 mm above the primary foundation.

5

Lay the pillar next to the assembly site. Check that the plates for the jib arm will be pointing in the correct direction when the pillar is raised. Install the power supply cable through the pillar tube and pull it out from the main isolation switch hole. Make sure that it cannot slide back into the pillar or become trapped during assembly.

6

Lift the pillar up and align the holes of the base plate with the anchor points. Check that the plates for the jib arm are facing in the right direction so that the jib arm will be pointing the right way. When the pillar is correctly aligned with the anchor points, lower the pillar downwards, taking care not to damage the fastenings.

25/76



7

Adjust the pillar vertical alignment by adjusting the lower nuts on the anchor bolts required. Test at several places around the circumference to make sure that the pillar is not leaning in any direction. Measure the vertical alignment 2 m from the top of the pillar.

8

Tighten the top washers and nuts to 90 Nm.

9

Install grouting (second stage concrete) under and around the base of the pillar. Refer to the foundation plan.

10

26/76

After the grouting has hardened, tighten the nuts to 314Nm torque. Use a spirit level to check that the pillar is still correctly aligned. Measure the vertical alignment 2 m from the top of the pillar.



6.2

Installing the pillar with chemical bolts

CAUTION

The crane SHALL only be assembled after the foundation concrete (C25/30 quality) is completely dry and hardened. The floor thickness must be at least 200mm.

CAUTION

If the pillar is not sufficiently vertical, the jib arm could move by itself. This may cause hazardous situations, for example collisions or injuries.

NOTE: The crane base plate and fastening bolts must be accessible at all times.

NOTE: Tighten the chemical bolts to the bolt manufacturer’s specified torque.

1

Position the metal base plate in the desired position on the floor.

2

Check that the floor is level where the base plate will be installed.

3

Make a channel under the base plate for the power supply cable to run through. Be sure to install the cable before securing the base plate to the floor.

4

Use the pillar base plate a template for drilling holes for the chemical bolts. Drill holes for M16 bolts into the floor through the pillar base plate.

27/76



5

Install chemical bolts into the floor according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Minimum drying time is approximately 24 hours. Tighten the chemical bolts to the bolt manufacturer’s specified torque.

6

Lay the pillar next to the assembly site. Check that the plates for the jib arm will be pointing in the correct direction when the pillar is raised. Install the power supply cable through the pillar tube and pull it out from the main isolation switch hole. Make sure that it cannot slide back into the pillar or become trapped during assembly.

7

Lift the pillar up and align the holes of the base plate with the anchor points. Check that the plates for the jib arm are facing in the right direction so that the jib arm will be pointing the right way. When the pillar is correctly aligned with the anchor points, lower the pillar downwards, taking care not to damage the fastenings.

8

Install the pillar with washers and nuts. Tighten the nuts to 314 Nm torque.

9

Make sure that pillar is vertical. Test at several places around the circumference to make sure that the pillar is not leaning in any direction. Measure the vertical alignment 2 m from the top of the pillar.

28/76



6.3

Installing wall s secured with two bolts

CAUTION

If the wall s are not sufficiently aligned, the jib arm could move from side to side by itself. This may cause hazardous situations, for example collisions or injuries.

NOTE: You must temporarily fit the wall s to the ing structure to ensure that they will be aligned correctly. The s are removed from the ing structure and attached to the jib arm before the whole assembly is lifted and the s are reattached to the ing structure. Proper alignment cannot be achieved if you try to attach the complete jib arm assembly to the ing structure without first fitting the wall s to the ing structure and checking the alignment.

1

Place the upper wall on the wall at the desired height and position. Make sure that it is aligned horizontally by using a spirit level.

2

Mark the positions of the holes on the wall. Remove the and then drill 27mm diameter holes in the wall.

6.4

Installing wall s secured with four bolts

CAUTION

If the wall s are not sufficiently aligned, the jib arm could move from side to side by itself. This may cause hazardous situations, for example collisions or injuries.

NOTE: You must temporarily fit the wall s to the wall to ensure that they will be aligned correctly. The s are removed from the ing structure and attached to the jib arm before the whole assembly is lifted and the s are reattached to the ing structure. Proper alignment cannot be achieved if you try to attach the complete jib arm assembly to the ing structure without first fitting the wall s to the ing structure and checking the alignment.

1

Place the upper wall on the wall at the desired height and position. Make sure that it is aligned horizontally by using spirit level.

2

Mark the positions of the holes on the wall. Remove the and then drill the holes on the wall.

6.5

Installing the jib arm to the pillar

1

Check that the pillar is ready for the jib arm to be installed. Ensure that any new concrete around the pillar foundation has been left to dry for a sufficient time.

2

Bring the jib arm close to the assembly site possible.

3

Insert the two radial spherical plain bearings (2) into the bearing housing (1). Ensure that the edge of the inner part of each bearing is level with the end of the pipe.

4

Check that there are three screws (1) in the trimmer of the lower pillar plate.

34/76



5

Prepare to lift the jib arm up to the pillar. Only use fiber slings to lift the jib arm; NEVER use chain slings! Only lift the jib arm at the intended lifting points around the jib arm’s centre of gravity. Be aware that the jib arm could turn or fall if it is not lifted correctly.

6

Lift the jib arm slowly into position so that the jib arm’s bearing housing is between the upper and lower plates. Keep the jib arm lifted upwards so that it is kept in with the underside of the upper bracket.

7

Place the slide bearing between the trimmer on the lower plate and the jib arm’s bearing housing.

8

Making sure that all components are aligned, carefully push the shaft, tapered end first, upwards through the lower plate, slide bearing, jib arm’s bearing housing and upper plate. The tapered end of the shaft will guide the articulated bearings into the correct position. When the shaft is fully inserted, the locking groove in the shaft should be completely visible above the upper plate.

35/76



9

Install the locking ring onto the top of the shaft. After installing the locking ring, push the shaft downwards so that the locking ring is resting on the upper plate.

10

Install the locking plate to the upper plate and the top of the shaft. The locking plate prevents the shaft from turning. Fasten the locking plate (1) to the shaft with two screws (2). Then mount the locking plate to the upper plate with screw (3), washer (4) and sleeve (5). Tighten the bolts to a torque appropriate to their size.

11

Decrease the from the lifting crane slightly, up to a point where the jib arm stays in place and does not start to turn while the rest of the assembly and alignment work is in progress.

12

Adjust the jib arm shaft vertical alignment by turning the adjusting screws (1) in the trimmer on the lower plate. Check that the jib arm is aligned correctly (that is, that the jib arm is level) when it is pointing in any direction. When the alignment is correct, tighten all three screws and check the alignment again. A correctly aligned jib arm will not have the tendency to turn by itself.

13

36/76

Completely detach the auxiliary crane from the jib arm.
