4.5 CONTINUED - ASSEMBLY OF WORKCAGE STIRRUPS
AND HOISTS (for model PMR0720D (WCS02) see
fig. 26 below) (shown with the two line system)
A platform using the Workcage Stirrup consists of one modular
section of either 6’-4” (2 m) or 3’-0” (1m) in length only.
The capacity for the platform is 500 lbs. (225kg).
a. If not already assembled, bolt the two-part stirrup together
with the two supplied 3/4 inch-10 UNC x 5 inch long SAE
grade 5 or better bolts and lock washers.
b. Lift the platform section onto the stirrup. Center the section.
c. Clamp the horizontal members (1) of the stirrup to the two
bottom rails of the modular section with the four threaded
clamp plates and 3/8 inch-16 UNC x 1-1/2 inch long SAE
grade 5 or better bolts.
d. Clamp the upright (3) of the intermediate stirrup to the
vertical of the modular section with two 1/2 inch-13UNC x 3
inch long SAE grade 5 or better bolts and nuts with lock and
flat washers and a clamp plate (4).
e. Mount the hoist to the stirrup with hardware of the size and
grade specified in the hoist instruction manual.
f. Raise the top rail and pin it in place to regulation height,
either 36 inches (910mm) or 42 inches (1100mm) high.
g. Do not cross wire ropes.
h. Reeving the Workcage Stirrup (Fig. 27 and 27a). For the
primary line start at the top right guide of the Stirrup and
guide under the right wheel assembly (5). The wire then runs
up and over the second right wheel (6) and travels down into
the Blocstop (7). From the Blocstop it runs through the top of
the hoisting mechanism and out through the bottom. Repeat
using the left-hand side if using a two rope system.

4.6 ASSEMBLY OF THE STANDARD END FRAMES
(for model PMR0030B (EF02)) (See fig. 27 below).
A platform with Intermediate or Workcage Stirrups requires
that the platform be enclosed with end frames for safety
a. The end frames are connected to the platform ends with
four gravity lock pins (7). Align the pin holes (8).
b. Insert the lock pins from the inside of the platform. Do
not hammer or force the pins into place.
c. Use only the supplied 5/8 inch diameter gravity lock
pins. Make sure that the pins are not worn, bent, or
otherwise damaged. Never substitute alternative pins or
bolts.
d. After each pin is installed ensure that the gravity lock is
rotated closed and nearest to vertical to prevent the pin
from dislodging (see Fig. 9 to fig. 12, page 16).
