16000 HANGING MAX-ER® OPERATOR MANUAL SET-UP AND INSTALLATION
Wire Rope Installation and Maintenance
See Wire Rope Installation this section for instructions:
• Installing wire rope on drums
• Anchoring wire rope to drums
Duplex Hook
Attach the load so it is balanced equally on the hook. Lifting
slings must be within angles given in Figure 4-51
to achieve
maximum hook capacity. The duplex hook has a hole to
which an optional shackle can be attached as shown in
Figure 4-51
.
Guide Sheaves and Drums
See Figure 4-52 for identification of the load drums and
guide sheaves.
Once wire rope is routed through the guide sheaves, be sure
to install rope guard pins, bars, and rollers to retain the wire
rope on the sheaves. Wire rope and sheaves can be
damaged if rope is not properly retained on sheaves.
Load Block Reeving
See Figure 4-53 and Figure 4-54 for dead-end locations and
components in the lower and upper boom points.
See Figure 4-55
and Figure 4-56 for load block reeving.
Reeving the load block in any manner other than shown can
result in excessive block twist.
WARNING
Falling Load Hazard!
Limit load to be handled with shackle to capacity of load
block or shackle, whichever is less.
Load block or shackle can fail if overloaded, allowing load
to fall.
