From this point on there are some installation points on the main runway ( the one with they clinder)
that you will want to perform. As the main runway is accessible during this step it is a good time to fit
and check some items.) Whilst these items can be addressed at a later stage they are likely easier
during this stage.
•
Hydraulic line connection
Check the hydraulic line from the cylinder to the outside edge of runway. If the fittings have
not been attached and you have easy access during this stage you can fit them now. If you do
not want to do this now you can delay this process and connect the hose directly from the
pump to the cylinder without going through the hole in the runway and fit it after you have
raised the runway and located it on the safety latch.

•
Lubricate all pulleys with Wurth dry lube (
use the high pressure dry lube
product
) Removing the pulleys is not recommended, the cables can be difficult to reroute.
•
Cylinder preparation
The cylinder as supplied is in the fully raised position (ram tube inside the cylinder). When
you assemble and attach the steel cable you will need to extend the ram tube to provide
enough length of cable to thread into the hoist. The cylinder is most easily extended by using
a ratchet strap to pull the cylinder out. Do this at a time when the cables will not cause an
issue but before you lower the runways down where the cylinder will be hard to access.
•
Cable preparation
When you extend the cables using a brush remove any excess debris that may have collected
on the cables and recoat with Wurth dry lube or equivalent.
•
Secure safety rods
Tape the safety rods on the cross beams so they do not get damaged when moving them
around.
The runways once removed should be placed on wooden blocks that will enable the end frames to be
slotted into them. Typically use blocks of 150mm or more in height. Place both runways in a location
similar to where they will be after the unit is installed. You will be able to move the unit using the
dolly wheels if the unit is not in the exact position.
