7. Then remove the components of the traversing system being used again.
6.4 Controlling the DUO traversing cylinder with anchor cylinder
CAUTION / ATTENTION!
The vehicle ton be rerailed must be secured against rolling away, slipping and
tipping over in accordance with the regulations! Observe the individual rerailing
concepts of the vehicle manufacturer.
6.4.1 Traversing with external load lifting:
Procedure:
1. Set up the rerailing system as described in the Chapter "Setting up the LUKAS traversing
system" and the separate operating instructions of the additional LUKAS components
being used.
2. Lift the vehicle with the separate load lifting system.
3. Place suitable support material (e.g. hardwood beams or metal plates) on the rolling
carriages and align the rolling carriages in such a way that the vehicle has a stable and
safe location after being put down.
CAUTION / ATTENTION!
The vehicle to be rerailed must be safely lifted up before packing up and
aligning to prevent it from slipping away or tipping over.
When packing up and aligning always also take account of the lifted vehicle!
If the vehicle should start to move in an uncontrolled manner you should
leave the danger area
as quickly as possible!
After packing up and aligning you must leave the danger area!
4. Place the vehicle on the rolling carriage(s).
5. Secure the load against slipping away to the side.
6. Move the traversing cylinder until the end point of the traversing procedure is reached.
If the traversing distance of 280 mm between a pair of slotted holes is inadequate you
need to relocate the traversing cylinder. If the traversing distance is inadequate then
continue with Item 11.
7. In order to relocate you must move the traversing cylinder to the middle of the slotted
hole in order to guarantee ease of movement of the retracting/extending anchor cylinder.
Now retract the anchor cylinder.
8. Now move the traversing cylinder to the middle of two holes.
9. Then extend the anchor cylinder again and move the traversing cylinder until the anchor
cylinder engages again.
Without engaging in the slotted hole the rolling carriage may need to be secured against
rolling away if it is not aligned horizontally, in order to prevent inadvertent movement of
the vehicle to be rerailed!
After engaging, the rolling carriages move in the direction of the traversing movement of
the traversing cylinder.
NOTE:
The traversing movement is only limited by the length of the rerailing
bridge.
10. Items 7 to 9 can be repeated "as often as you need".
