Assembly/Installation of Between-Floor Mount or Window Mount
Systems
The between-floor mount or window mount is used where both the upper and
lower end of the mount rests against a strong, flat surface. The small diameter end
of the mount is placed toward the ceiling and the larger diameter tube is set toward
the floor. Tighten the system with the adjustment screw to lock the vertical post
between the two surfaces. Make sure the post is vertical to the floor. Attach the
vertical post mounting clamps as high as possible on the floor or window mount.
Connect the hoist to the vertical post mount by placing the inboard end of the hoist
shroud on the lower peg and connecting the turnbuckle to the top of the post
mount. Adjust the turnbuckle and use a level to make sure the hoist is completely
horizontal and level with the ground. This will ensure proper spooling of the wire
rope on the drum.
Assembly/Installation of Scaffold Post Mount System
The scaffold post mount is used to attach the hoist to the vertical corner leg of steel
scaffold. The scaffold section that is to be mounted to should be erected and
properly secured to the building face. All sections should be correctly secured to
each other. Diagonal braces for the scaffold sections must also be in place. At the
load/unload level, attach the vertical post mounting clamps as high as possible.
Connect the hoist to the vertical post mount by placing the inboard end of the hoist
shroud on the lower peg and connecting the turnbuckle to the top of the post
mount. Adjust the turnbuckle and use a level to make sure the hoist is completely
horizontal and level with the ground. This will ensure the proper spooling of the
wire rope on the drum.
CAUTION
Do not mount the hoist to free-standing scaffold. Scaffold must be secured to a building face.
Counterweights of the proper amount should always be used.
