Troubleshooting

Gantry frame wobbles during use.

Ensure all bolts and connections are securely tightened. Verify that the frame is on a completely level and stable floor surface. Ensure all castor wheels are locked in place before lifting.

Castor wheels are difficult to swivel or lock.

Check for any debris or obstructions around the castor mechanism. If the issue persists, lubrication of the castor bearings may be required.

Frame height adjustment is stiff.

Ensure the locking pins or mechanisms for height adjustment are fully disengaged before attempting to adjust. Check for any obstructions that might be hindering movement.

Rust or paint damage noticed.

Clean the affected area and touch up with a suitable metal primer and paint to prevent further corrosion. Inspect for structural integrity if damage is significant.
