ROTISSERIE ADJUSTMENTS & SET-UP
• The assembled Rotisserie has limited adjustments for length as
well as Support Arm “Tee” Beams
[D]
height.
• First determine where the face of the Support Arm “Tee” Beams
[D]
would be best located to safely support the subject project
car body and allow it to rotate without a dangerous top-heavy or
bottom-heavy bias.
• Always adjust the length to take advantage of the greater strength
in the Large and Intermediate Beams by minimizing the exposure
of the single center Small Beam
[P]
. Begin by telescoping the
Large Connector Beams
[M]
first, the Intermediate Connector
Beams
[N]
next and the Small Connector Beams
[P]
, last.
• Always equalize the exposed amount of the Connector Beams
between both ends.
LENGTH ADJUSTMENT: (MAXIMUM 18’ [5.5M] FACE TO FACE
OF SUPPORT ARM “TEE” BEAMS [D] (FIG 29).
1.
Loosen the Lockbolts on the Support Arm “Tee” Beams
[D]
then
carefully slide out the Large Connector Beams
[M]
exercising
extreme care not to exceed the minimum exposure depth. Lightly
tighten the Lockbolts.
2.
Loosen the Lockbolts on the Large Connector Beams
[M]
then
then carefully slide out the Intermediate Connector Beams
[N]
ex-
ercising extreme care not to exceed the minimum exposure depth.
Lightly tighten the Lockbolts.
3.
Loosen the Lockbolts on the Intermediate Connector Beams
[N]
then carefully slide out the Small Connector Beam
[P]
exercising
extreme care not to exceed the minimum exposure depth. Lightly
tighten the Lockbolts.
4.
Once all lengths are balanced side to side and adjustments final-
ized, tighten all Lockbolts with a 21mm wrench (not included).
It is strongly recommended that all telescoping Beam connections be tack welded as a safety measure before final use.
They can easily be ground away to support a different vehicle for future use (FIG 30).
