Sky Climber Rolling Roof Rig
1.
Assemble beam using 2 splice plates and 8 bolts and nuts per joint. Rolling Roof Rig Package 154-24-A
consists of 2 end beams. Package 154-24-B consists of 2 end beams and 1 mid-beam.
2.
Raise the mast to the desired height and insert the retaining pin. Loosen the 4 nuts and bolts connecting the
hat bracket to the mast. Insert and pin a jack on each side of the stanchion. Repeat with second mast.
3.
Insert the assembled I-beam through the hat bracket of the front stanchion until you reach the desired amount
of outreach. Tighten the four hat bracket nuts and bolts. Insert other end of I-beam through rear stanchion
until about 3 inches of the beam extends beyond the hat bracket (packages 154-24-A and 154-24-B).
4.
Remove the two bolts on either side of the rear hat bracket. Set the Longhorn on top of the rear hat bracket
and secure it using the two bolts.
5.
Check chart to determine maximum amount of outreach for your application. If a strongback is required see
package 154-24-C or 154-24-CBT.
6.
Roll the assembled roof rig into the desired location. Crank the jacks until the load is removed from the casters
and the roof rig is level.
7.
Slide the correct number of counterweights (see chart on page 6) onto the longhorn rods. Slide the large
washers onto the rods and place a bale clip or nut and bolt through the ends of the rods to retain the
counterweights.
8.
Attach the tie back wire rope to the hole in the rear of the I-beam or the shackle of the suspension rope and
tie back to a substantial building structure*.
*Substantial building structures are defined and verified as an anchor point designed and confirmed in writing by an engineer,
with a 4:1 safety factor versus the rating of the hoist being used.
9.
Attach the suspension wire rope assembly counterweights to the hole in the front of the I-beam.
