XSL Rigging components
3.3 Suspension of the flying frame
The suspension of the XSL Flying frame is carried out using the XSL
Load beam. The Load beam allows for either Single or Dual
pickpoint operation. For this purpose, the Load beam is equipped
with 22 mm holes that accept the enclosed 3.25 t shackles.
3.3.1 Single pick point operation
NOTICE!
Single pick point operation is not recommended for
Compression mode.
With "Single pick point operation" the position of the shackle
defines the vertical aiming of the entire array.
The corresponding hole position (one hole detent) is calculated
using ArrayCalc.
Note: The target angle of the entire array is achieved when the
array is fully set up, hoisted, and secured as intended.
Attachment
1. Choose the appropriate hole position on the Load beam
according to the ArrayCalc calculation and attach the shackle
correspondingly.
2. Attach the hoist connector chain or motor hook to the shackle
of the Load beam respectively.
3.3.2 Dual pick point operation
With "Dual pick point operation" the vertical aiming of the array is
set by trimming the hoist motors after the array has been fully
assembled and lifted to its operating position.
The corresponding hole positions are selected according to
ArrayCalc.
Attachment
1. Choose the appropriate hole positions for the front and rear
pick on the Load beam according to ArrayCalc and attach the
enclosed shackles correspondingly.
2. Connect the hoist connector chain, aiming plate and/or motor
hooks to the shackles of the Load beam, respectively.
