Wind Up Jack Leg Option (WUJL)

WUJL’S can be fitted to the gantry. This provides 
additional fine height adjustment (up to 250mm). 
Each foot may be adjusted independently 
providing a method of levelling the system on 
uneven ground.

If wind up jack legs are fitted the following 
points must be observed:

    

Check whether the castors fitted are Load 
Rated or Pneumatic.

N.B. For pneumatic (non load bearing) castors 
the WUJL system must always be applied prior 
to performing any lift. If load rated castors are 
fitted the operator can choose whether the 
castors or WUJL take the load on each foot of 
the gantry

    

When manoeuvring the gantry, always have 
the jack legs in the ‘parked’ position as shown 
in figure 1.

    

Position the gantry for the lift before setting 
the height with the jack

    

Before lifting ensure all jacks are in the correct 
lifting position and are secured with locking 
pins and clips as shown in figure 2

    

Manually raise each leg in turn and set the 
height by rotating jack handle clockwise

    

Having set the adjustment of all four legs, 
ensure that the gantry uprights are vertical, 
and the beam is horizontal

WUJL Inspection/Maintenance

The jack legs and brackets should be subjected 
to periodic inspections by a competent person 
in line with the products inspection and 
maintenance guidelines. It is recommended 
that when not in use the jack legs are removed 
and stored in a clean and dry manner. The jack 
leg should be lubricated with EP2 grease on the 
internal thread and gears, at regular intervals (up 
to 6 months maximum), depending on service 
conditions.
