c.) Attach front and rear mounting brackets, items 2 and 3 on winch assembly

page 20, to the tester frame in their respective positions. See also drawing
50979 page 26, items 20 and 21 for correct placement.

bolts, item 42 , two (2) M10 lock washers, item 43 , and two (2) M10x1.5 nuts,
item 44 . Tighten all fasteners located on this pulley mount.

e.) Attach the winch, item 5 , on page 20, to the tester by placing it on top of the

cylinder mount as shown on drawing 50979 page 26. Use four (4) M10x40mm
long bolts, item 42 , four (4) M10 lock washers, item 43 , and four (4) M10x1.5
nuts, item 44 , to secure winch to load tester frame.

This completes the assembly of the frame for your hoist load tester. Please refer to section

1.2 Assembly of static hydraulic cylinder assembly to the tester frame assembly

a.) Remove the static hydraulic cylinder assembly, item 12 on drawing 50979-1,

from the shipping crate with a forklift or crane.

b.) Select two (2) "U" bolt assemblies, item 22 , from the hardware packet.
c.) Lower the winch cable and attach it to the 1" master link in the lower beam

assembly. Raise the winch which will lift the lower beam until the 2"x6"x18" long
wood can be removed from between the rear of the lower beam and the vertical
column.

d.) Remove the lower pin from the cylinder (end opposite the rod end) and tilt the

upper yoke away from the rear of the vertical column and gently slide the lower
yoke over the lower beam cylinder mount, (see Figure #2 page 4 and 27). Lower
the cylinder assembly until the holes in the yoke of the cylinder and the lower
beam cylinder mount align. Insert the lower pin and replace the fixing clip to
secure the lower yoke to the hoist tester frame. Now tilt the rod end of the cylin
der forward adjusting the lower beam by raising or lowering the winch until the
rod end holes align with the upper cylinder pin hole of the cylinder mount. Insert
the upper pin and replace the fixing clip to secure the upper yoke to the cylinder
mount.

e.) Attach the pressure gauge to the appropriate location using the "U" bolt assem-

blies, item 22 , as shown on drawing 50979-1.
