The rerailing system is now ready to use!
DANGER / CAUTION!
Make sure that nobody is present in the danger zone.
6.3 Control of the DUO traverse jack with anchor pin
NOTE:
Bear in mind that the traversing range of the jack is limited by the stroke of the
piston!
This means that the DUO traversing system must be set up such that the
stroke of the jack piston is sufficient for the required traversing range!
6.3.1 Traversing with external load lifting system (recommended method):
Procedure:
1. Set up the rerailing system as described under "Setting up the DUO traversing
system" and in the separate operating instructions of the other components used.
2. Raise the vehicle with the separate load lifting system.
3. Place suitable base material (e.g hardwood blocks or metal plates) on the roller
carriages and align such that, after lowering, the vehicle is stable and secure on the
roller carriages.
DANGER / CAUTION!
The vehicle to be rerailed must be secure according to instructions to prevent it
rolling, slipping and tipping!
DANGER / CAUTION!
The vehicle to be rerailed must be securely raised such that it cannot slip
or tip over before placing the base material and setting up the traversing
system.
Always keep an eye on the raised vehicle when placing the base material
and setting up the system!If the vehicle begins to move in an uncontrolled
manner, leave the danger zone as fast as possible!
You must leave the danger zone after placing the base material and setting
up the system!
4. Lower the vehicle on to the roller carriages.
5. Extend the traverse jack with the separate control unit by the distance the vehicle to be
rerailed is to be traversed to the rails.
It is strictly prohibited to work under loads that are
raised solely by hydraulic means!
6. Move the separate load lifting system such that you can again safely lift the vehicle to be
rerailed. The vehicle must still remain secured to prevent it rolling, slipping and tipping!
7. Raise the vehicle to be rerailed and remove the base material from the roller
carriages.
8. Retract the traverse jack.
