SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Girder Trolleys The following Safety Instructions outline the care and safe use of GIRDER TROLLEYS and are based on Section 7 of the LEEA Code of Practice for the Safe Use of Lifting Equipment. This information is of a general nature; only covering the main points for the safe use of travelling girder trolleys. It may be necessary to supplement this information for specific applications. ALWAYS Store and handle trolleys correctly Inspect trolleys, blocks and accessories before use and before placing into storage Ensure the wheel profile is suitable for the track Check the trolley width is correctly set for the track Ensure the track is fitted with positive end stops Push rather than pull loads suspended on push/pull trolleys NEVER Expose trolleys to chemicals, particularly acids, without consulting the supplier Force or wedge the suspension hook of blocks onto the load bar Throw or drop a trolley Expose a trolley directly to the elements, water spray, steam etc without consulting the supplier Use a trolley with chipped or otherwise damaged wheel flanges Obliquely side load a trolley Storing & Handling Trolleys Users will often remove blocks for storage leaving the trolley in place. They must be suitably protected from damage and corrosion. When removing trolleys for separate storage the following steps should be taken: Never return damaged trolleys to storage. They should be dry, clean and protected from corrosion. Store trolleys in a dry, clean area protected from damage. Operating chains, pendant power controls etc may be removed, clearly labelled and stored separately to avoid damage. Trolleys should not be dropped or thrown down.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION (CONT.) Girder Trolleys Installing & Commissioning Follow any specific installation instructions issued by the supplier. These should be read in conjunction with the instructions applicable to the block and should at least pay attention to the following: Check the runway track is level, has an even running surface and is fitted with positive end stops which engage with the trolley frame or wheel treads. Ensure the trolley is set to correct width with spacers (where applicable) equally disposed about the centre line, that the wheel profile is suitable for the track section and anti-tilt devices (where applicable) are correctly set. If the trolley was dismantled for erection ensure the parts are correctly re-assembled. Ensure that all bolts, nuts etc are in place and fully tightened. If end stops were removed ensure they are replaced. Using Trolleys Safely The safe use of the trolley will largely be governed by the requirements for the block with which it is to be used but should take the following matters into account: Do not use defective trolleys, blocks or accessories. The trolley must be placed directly over the centre of gravity of the load. Under no circumstances must they be obliquely side loaded as this will cause them to tip, resulting in damage to the track or the trolley becoming detached from the track and falling. In the case of push/pull trolleys push rather than pull suspended loads taking care to avoid swinging loads. In-service Inspection & Maintenance Maintenance may be combined with that of the block but should ensure that the trolley is clean and that moving parts are regularly lubricated. Keep the running surface of wheels and contact surface of track free of any contamination including lubricants. Regularly inspect the trolley and, in the event of the following defects, refer the trolley to a Competent Person for thorough examination: wear; damage to wheel treads and flanges; insecure wheels and axle pins; loose nuts; distorted side plates, load bar or suspension eyes; damaged or worn hand chain; damaged controls; worn, chipped drive gears; illegible markings.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.) Beam Clamps The following Safety Instructions outline the care and safe use of BEAM CLAMPS and are based on Section 8 of the LEEA Code of Practice for the Safe Use of Lifting Equipment. This information is of a general nature; only covering the main points for the safe use of beam clamps intended for use as suspension points for lifting appliances. It may be necessary to supplement this information for specific applications. ALWAYS Store and handle beam clamps correctly Inspect beam clamps and accessories before use and before placing into storage Ensure the supporting structure is adequate for the full load that will be imposed and suitable for the application. Check the clamp is of the correct profile and size, or correctly adjusted, for the beam width and that it seats correctly on the beam flange. Ensure the beam clamp is strong enough for the full load that will be imposed. Check that the clamp is directly over the centre of gravity of the load. NEVER Use beam clamps which are unidentified or uncertified for lifting applications. Never replace bolts, shackles etc without consulting the supplier. Throw or drop beam clamps. Use beam clamps on damaged or distorted beams. Force or wedge hooks of lifting appliances into the attachment eye or fitting (eg shackle). Obliquely load beam clamps without the authority of the supplier. Storing & Handling Beam Clamps Never return damaged beam clamps to storage. They should be dry, clean and protected from corrosion. Where necessary fasteners should be reassembled immediately after removal from the beam. Beam clamps should not be dropped or thrown down.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION (CONT.) Beam Clamps Using Beam Clamps Safely The safe use of beam clamps will largely be governed by the requirements for the lifting appliance with which it is to be used but should take the following matters into account: Do not use defective beam clamps, lifting appliances or accessories. Ensure the structure from which the clamp is to be suspended is undamaged and is adequate for the full load that will be imposed. If any doubt exists consult a Competent Person to confirm suitability. Ensure the clamp is suitable for the application, correct size and profile for the beam and seats correctly. It must not cause localised overloading. Ensure the lifting appliance is compatible with the clamp and that hooks or other attachments fit freely into the eye, shackle etc of the clamp. The clamp must be positioned directly over the centre of gravity of the load and the load must not be allowed to swing or impose an oblique loading. If two clamps are to be used in tandem the use of ancillary equipment may also be necessary, eg spreader beam. Care must be taken to ensure no one clamp takes more than its rated capacity. In-service Inspection & Maintenance Beam clamps should be cleaned and any moving parts lubricated at appropriate intervals unless the suppliers specific instructions indicate otherwise. Regularly inspect the beam clamp, in the event of the following defects refer the clamp to a Competent Person for thorough examination: wear, damage or distortion, cracks, insecure bolts etc, corrosion, illegible markings.
