3.2.2 Lift points – The deck mounted/lug suspended, standard headroom and ultra-low hoists and trolleys are


Prior to mounting the trolley and hoist ensure that the trolley beam and its
supporting structure are adequate to support the trolley, hoist and its loads. If necessary consult a
professional that is qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the suspension location and its supporting
structure.
3.3.2 When the hoist is installed in fixed position or on a trolley not supplied by Harrington, the hoist is
designed to be deck mounted OR lug suspended.
 Deck Mounted – The hoist will rest on the four machined surfaces (or “feet”) located on the bottom
of the hoist’s cast housing on both ends of the drum.
 Lug Suspended – The hoist will hang from four slots located on the top of the hoist’s cast housing
on both ends of the drum.
3.3.3 Optional Eyebolt Kits are available from Harrington and can be used in either the deck mounted or lug
suspended configuration (see Figure 3-5). These kits include the Eyebolts and the Flat Washers, Nuts
and Jam Nuts sized to fit the Eyebolt and strength requirements of the application. The Eyebolt Pins
and keeper hardware is pre-install on the hoist from the factory.
3.3.4 For deck mounted configurations the surface(s) on which the hoist rests and is secured to must
be level in accordance with Figure 3-6.
