Completing the installation – additional equipment and accessories
Setup and Confi gurations
Multiple units installation with mast ties – pre-installation
(requires two twin mast adapters – sold separately)
Greasing of the racks and gears
Installation of the mast guards
26- Upon initial setup and subsequently after every 8 to 10 hours of cumulative runtime
(unit travel up and down the mast), grease must be applied to the gears and to the
racks of each motorized unit, from the top of the mast down. For more information,
refer to the daily inspection checklist for this motorized unit. Grease must be allowed
to stand for 2-3 hours before the motorized units are used again. Use an open gear
lubricant recommended by Hydro Mobile. Refer to p. 133 of the Transport, Storage
and Maintenance section for more information on the appropriate lubrication method.
Lower the motorized units to base level, verifying the mast ties and the mast bolts on
each motorized unit and applying grease, as required, on the way down. Make sure
that all bolt assemblies are tightened to the proper torque and are in good condition,
and that grease is applied appropriately.
27- Once grease has been applied to the gears and mast racks on both motorized units,
install all mast guards.

WARNING
It is recommended that two persons handle all rise and descent operations of each motorized
unit and that at least one of those two persons is a qualifi ed operator. It is important to
coordinate the motion of motorized units linked by a bearing bridge to keep the structure as level
as possible.
Installation of additional bridges, equipment and accessories
28- With the unit at base level, install as many additional cantilevers as is required and allowed.
Refer to the Load Capacities section on p. 94 for the maximum number of bridges
allowed in a setup.
29- Install additional equipment and accessories as is required and allowed. For more
information about the combined use of equipment and accessories in an installation,
refer to the tables for the combinations allowed or restricted in linked and unlinked
confi gurations on p. 17 and p. 18 of this section. For instructions on the installation
and use of an extension bridge or a swivel bridge, refer to the Bridges section on p. 50.
For instructions on the installation and use of any other accessory such as a monorail
or weather protection, refer to the Accessories section on p. 123.
Installation of outriggers and planking
30- Adjust the outriggers and install planks, as required and allowed (see p. 111 of the
Accessories section for more information).

Verifi cation of the setup
31- Make a fi nal verifi cation of the setup before authorizing workers to use the motorized
units. Make sure that all the guardrails are in place and secure (see p. 108 of the
Accessories section for more information about guardrails). In all cases where workers
are exposed to fall hazards greater than specifi ed by local regulations, the of guardrails
or face guardrail supports is mandatory.
32- Before authorizing workers to use the motorized units, perform every step in the daily
inspection checklist. It is recommended to fi ll out the handover sheet to complete the
installation. Refer to p. 134 of the Transport, Storage and Maintenance section for
more information about the daily inspection checklist and to p. 136 for information
about the handover sheet.
