with chassis components. Note: Be sure to secure a mid bracket to one of the hole
locations indicated in Fig. B. Also allow space for mounting the control valve assembly
and the hydraulic tank. You should consult the truck chassis supplier for any limitations
regarding drilling mount holes in the truck chassis frame rails. Typically, the holes must be at
least 2 3/4” from the top of the truck chassis rails (reference
Fig. C, Fig. D & Fig. E ). Mid
brackets will have more flexibility due to the additional row of holes in the Main Frame and
allows for drilling into the truck chassis frame rails at 2 3/4”, 3 3/4” or 4 3/4”
(bolts are only
required on two of the four lower mount bracket holes). Once the locations of the mount
brackets have been determined, use the mount brackets as a template for marking the
mounting holes in the truck chassis frame rails. Drill the 17/32” diameter holes required and
attach the brackets to the
truck chassis with the 1/2”
diameter bolts, washers,
and locking hex nuts
provided. Torque to 110
ft.lb.
3. Bolt the mount brackets to
the hoist main frame as
indicated on
Fig. C, D and
E . You may need to
modify the mount brackets
or add shim plates to allow
for variances in the width
of the truck chassis as well
as to allow for top rivets,
stepped channels, etc.
