Moving under Load
When moving the gantry underload, the
following instructions MUST be followed:
This product can only be moved in the
direction perpendicular to the beam
Directional locks must be used on the castors
(perpendicular to the beam only)
The end user MUST make sure the center of
gravity of the load is known and the lifting
points are in such a way that the load is
EQUALLY distributed, so the load generates a
vertical pull to the beam.
The load is not allowed to swing
The floor must be smooth, flat, free from cracks
or steps and the weather conditions should be
safe for the operation (i.e. not when frost, ice or
snow present)
A risk assessment and method statement are
required to be completed by a competent
person before moving the gantry under load
The gantry’s movement must be controlled at
a slow speed, no sudden movements or high
speeds are allowed.
Fall Protection
When being used as part of a fall protection
system the user must use a body harness and
retractable device or shock absorber to EN355 that
limits the maximum allowed force (M.A.F.) to 6kN.
Winches used with the system should comply to
EN1496:2017 or equivalent.
In the event of simultaneous goods and personnel
combined lifting/ fall arrest or when being used as
a fall arrest system in sub-zero and wet conditions
contact the supplier as capacities may be reduced.
Only one person should be attached to each
trolley in accordance with the notified working
load limit (WLL). Each lift must be properly
planned, and all weights clearly known along with
the WLL and constraints of all personal fall arrest
system components.
The capabilities stated in the table below apply to
standard range systems only. If unsure about your
system consult serial labels, information filled in on
page 27 or consult your supplier. Bespoke versions
of the system are available tailored to specific
lifting needs. These versions are designated with
a ‘C’ at the end the product number on the serial
label attached to each A-Frame and beam.
For custom designed gantries please contact your
supplier for appropriate rating and capabilities.
