5. Position the cable follower roller on the arms. Secure the
cable follower roller shaft to its mounting angles or
mounting brackets with fasteners removed earlier. (For a
roller with bushings instead of bearings, there are two
washers and two cotter pins.)
6. Secure the mounting angles or mounting brackets to the
pivot arms with four bolts and washers. Center the roller
between the hoist drum flanges and tighten the bolts.
7. Tack weld the bolt heads.
8. Attach one end of each tension springs to the lever on
each side. Install each adjusting rod through the lug on
each side plate and connect to the other end of the
spring. Install the adjusting nuts on each rod and tighten
enough to take the slack out of the spring.
9. Using a grease gun, apply grease to any fittings.
10. Adjust the roller as follows:
a. With one layer of cable on the hoist drum, adjust the
bolts on the front of each side plate (that push
against each arm) so the roller applies pressure on
the layer of cable, and does not interfere with filler/
riser protrusions on the hoist drum flanges. Tighten
jam nuts to secure setting.
b. Adjust each rod and nut and spring so the end of the
rod is 1.30 in (33 mm) from the near surface of the
nut.
