INTRODUCTION

1.1
General

The Hi-Tech Hoist Corporation RP-2001/RP-2010/RP-3003 Rack & Pinion
Material Platform Hoist provides a safe and efficient means of delivering tools
and materials from ground level up to 350 feet on new or existing structures.

The hoist consists of a carriage and platform, a tower, a base section and
various attachments and accessory items. The tower is made up of 5 foot
sections which are easily bolted together to reach the necessary height. The
tower is stabilized with brackets and braces attached to the structure. It is
important to remember that the tower carries the entire weight of the hoist and
load.

The carriage and platform travel up and down the tower under the control of the
operator using a push-button pendant control. The operator may be stationed
on the ground or at one of the upper levels. Upper and lower travel limit
switches prevent the hoist from traveling beyond the limits of the tower.

The RP-2001/RP-
20 1 0 p la tfo rm is 7 0 (w ) x 4 5 (d ) x 4 8 (h ), R P
-3003 platform
is 7 0 (w ) x 6 0 (d ) x 4 8 (h ) a n d is e n clo sed w ith sid e p a n e ls a nd d ro p do w n
ramps. The pivoting platform is an excellent feature (RP-2001 & RP-2010
only). This allows the platform to pivot 90 degrees to the side to make it easier
to load or unload at the upper levels. In some cases, this feature is required
due to the site configuration. An optional Overhead Protection Enclosure can
be provided where required, to protect workers while loading or unloading the
platform.

The platform can transport wheelbarrows, lumber, block, bagged material,
hardware fixtures and equipment.
The platform is only used as a work
platform while erecting and dismantling the tower. However, during
normal use, personnel are prohibited from riding the RP-2001/RP-2010
Material Platform Hoist.
