TURNTABLE COMPONENTS: 

TURNTABLE INSTALLATION 

When choosing installation position, ensure that a clear space can be maintained around the turntable, 

hoist and track, 

When installing a turntable, the turntable should fitted first and the track then fitted from the turntable. 

Curves that come directly from a turntable must not be cut back past the straight section otherwise the 

GoLift will not pass from the turntable to the track. A minimum of 4” (100mm) of straight track must be 

left on the bend.
