Preparing Counterweight Tray for Removal
See Figure 4-119 for the following procedure:
NOTE: For ease of counterweight tray handling and lifting,
Manitowoc provides four lifting pendants (2) and
two lifting plates (1), and two lifting lugs on each
side of the tray. The counterweight tray must be
removed with an assist crane.
1. Position the live mast in the operating range so it is out
of the way.
2. Using the switch on the remote control, travel the
counterweight tray (3) rearward until the limit switch
stops it.
3. Using the lifting plates (1), attach four lifting pendants (2)
to the hook block of the assist crane.
The other end of the pendants are attached to the lifting
lugs in the counterweight tray.
4. Attach hand-held taglines to the lugs (4) on the rear
corners of the tray. Have ground personnel control the
swinging of the tray with the taglines.
5. Hoist with the assist crane so the lifting slings are taut.
