Product Information

Full details

This Ace Screw Type Gear Trolley is designed for professionals needing a reliable and adjustable lifting point for chain blocks and hoists on steel beams. Its key benefit is the precise and easy adjustment to various beam sizes via a hand chain and gear mechanism, enabling efficient movement of suspended loads up to 0.5 tons. A potential caveat is that it requires existing steel beams to function as a mounting point.

Troubleshooting

Trolley is difficult to move along the beam.

Check if the beam surface is clean and free of obstructions. Ensure the trolley is not overtightened on the beam. Lubricate the wheels or running surfaces if necessary.

Screw adjuster is stiff or won't engage properly.

Clean the screw threads and mechanism. Apply a suitable lubricant. Inspect for any bent or damaged parts that may impede movement.

Trolley feels unstable on the beam.

Verify that the beam width is within the specified range (50-220 MM). Ensure the screw adjuster is tightened securely against the beam flanges.

Hand chain is tangled or not operating smoothly.

Untangle the chain and ensure it is properly seated in the sprocket. Clean any debris from the chain and sprockets. Lubricate the chain if needed.
