Setup uye Installation

Follow these steps to properly install your Ironton Adjustable Push Trolley onto an I-beam:

  1. Prepare the Trolley: The trolley comes partially assembled. You will need to adjust the width to match your I-beam.
  2. Determine Beam Width: Measure the width of your I-beam. The trolley is designed to fit I-beams from 3 inches to 8 inches wide.
  3. Adjust Spacers: To adjust the trolley width, remove the cotter pin from one of the axles. Slide off the hex nut and then the side plate. Arrange the appropriate number of spacers on each axle to match your I-beam width. The goal is to have the trolley wheels fit snugly but freely on the I-beam flange, with minimal side-to-side play. Ensure an equal number of spacers are placed on both sides of each axle to maintain balance.
  4. Reassemble and Secure: Once the correct spacer configuration is achieved, reattach the side plate, hex nut, and cotter pin. Ensure the cotter pin is fully inserted and bent to prevent the nut from loosening. Repeat for the other axle if necessary.
  5. Install on I-Beam: Carefully lift the trolley and place it onto the I-beam, ensuring the wheels rest on the horizontal flanges.
  6. Test Movement: Gently push the trolley along the I-beam to ensure it moves freely and smoothly without binding. If it binds, re-check the spacer configuration.
