Operation

TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY and DEATH: The use of gantry cranes is subject
to certain hazards that cannot be met by mechanical means, but only by the
exercise of intelligence, care, common sense, and experience in anticipating
the motions that will occur as a result of operating the controls.
Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles, hard hat, heavy-duty work gloves,
and steel-toed work boots during operation.
Do not use without Locking Pins (7) in place and secured with R-Pins (18).
Do not exceed 1 Ton (2000 lb.) capacity.
NOTE: Once Assembly is complete, tighten ALL Bolts before initial operation.
The Gantry Crane can be used with a Push Trolley (ITEM 97392) and a hoist offered by Harbor Freight
Tools. Install trolley and hoist (both sold separately) according to manual instructions before operation.
Adjusting I-Beam Height
CAUTION! Use two people to
adjust the I-Beam height.
1. Remove the R-Pins (18) from the
Height Pins (7) and slide out Height Pins.
2. Once the Height Pins have been removed,
turn the Handles on both Pulley Assemblies
clockwise to raise the I-Beam.
Turn both counterclockwise to lower I-Beam.
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of tipping,
use crane at lowest height
possible for the application.
WARNING! Do not adjust the
legs to different heights.
3. Once the desired height has been reached,
reinsert the Height Pins and
secure in place with the R-Pins.
NOTE: The Vertical Post Assembly has nine
different stop positions. See Figure G.
