Bolt 2
Bolt 1
The gantry beam has adjustment holes to narrow the
footprint of the gantry. This is best done when the gantry
is assembled with 2 persons sliding the A-frame inwards
while 1-2 persons steady the gantry by holding the beam
– this will require the use of a step ladder. If this process
is required to be carried out often then an upgrade to
‘lobed cheek plates’ can be purchased which allows
the gantry to be assembled as steps 8-21 but with one
A-frame inward from the end of the beam.
This illustration demonstrates the bolt positions
(1 & 2) for the cheek plates.
Lay the two A-Frames a beam length apart on a
flat surface in line with each other with the castor
wheels outward and brakes on
Lay the beam on the A-Frames, resting on bolt 1
on each cheek plate
Thread the beam trolley over the other end
of the beam and lock with the friction brake at
approximately centre position. If using a gated
trolley, lock with the friction break
Offer one end of the beam to the rear bolt-hole
on the cheek-plate (bolt 1) and insert a bolt
Put on plain washer, spring washer then nut,
finger tight
