OVERHEAD MONORAIL SYSTEM

**************************************************************************

NOTE: Plain type (hand operated) trolleys are

recommended where trolley motion is infrequent or

the distance is short. Plain type trolleys are not

recommended for hoists of 3 metric ton ton capacity

and greater, or for tracks higher than 6 m 20 feet

above the floor level. Hand chain operated trolleys

are recommended where trolley motion is infrequent

or the distance is short. They provide good load

spotting ability and can be used for hoists of 5

metric ton ton capacity and under. Motor operated

trolleys are recommended where the operating

frequency, travel distance, rated load, or beam

elevation makes other types of trolleys impractical.

NOTE: This specification is written for a single

monorail system and hoist. Edit the following

paragraphs to reflect number, types, capacities of

monorail track systems, hoists, trolleys, etc.
