Rigging Installation Procedures➀ If beams or other means of support are not already provided, measure and mark the location of motor and spool support channels. ➁ Install the channels at the appropriate location.➂ Measure and mark the location of each motor and PosiSpool. a) Use a black medium felt tip pen; b) Using a carpenter’s square, mark center with a line across the entire bottom fl ange of the beam or channel; c) Mark all locations of the motors and PosiSpools using a carpenter’s square with a line across the entire bottom fl ange of the beam or channel.➃ Place the motors and spools at or under the point of installation.Please Note: It is recommended that heavy items be hoisted up to the work area using appropriate machinery, i.e. hoisting lifts, block and tackle, etc.➄ Install the motors and spools. a) Remove the limit switch cover from the motor. b) Prepare the bolts, nuts, and washers. c) Install MK500 Beam Mounting Kit to motor and Posi-spools. If suspending TorkStar along length of beam, also attach TS90 Parallel Beam Adapter Plate. d) Ensuring that the lift lines will fall off the same side of all spools, lift the motor and spools into place. e) Torque the nuts to 50 ft/lbs.➅ If installing above a ceiling, and using optional ceiling fl anges, plumb for the location of the ceiling slots. a) Drop a plumb line over one end of one spool. b) Mark the top of the ceiling at the bob. c) Drop the plumb line over the other end of the same spool. d) Mark the top of the ceiling at that bob. e) Repeat for each spool in the system(s).

➆ Install the lift lines on the spools. a) Find the lift line with the button end from the box. b) Thread the lift line from the interior of the spool and down the proper line port and through the ceiling slot until it is fully deployed to the fl oor. c) Repeat for each spool. d) Rotate the spools so that the lines may drop directly from the holes in the spool to the fl oor.

➇ Install the line shafts. a) Measure the distance between the spigots of each spool. b) Cut a length of 2" ID schedule 40 pipe for installation between each spool. Cut each pipe ¼" shorter than each measurement from step a). c) Drill ½" diameter holes through the pipe 1" from each end. These pipes are now the line shafts. d) Take the line shafts up to the blocks for installation. e) Remove the bolts, nuts and washers from the couplings. f) Remove the couplings from the spigots. g) Slip the couplings onto the line shafts. h) Hold the line shaft end to the end of the spigot and slide the coupling so that it straddles the two. i) Install bolts and secure with Nylok nuts.

➈ Complete the electrical hook-up and run the motor to locate the lower limit switch at its furthest end of travel.➉ Adjusting the trim: a) Install a temporary load of approximately 25 pounds at the bottom of each of the lift lines. b) Using the key switch or the remote controller turn the motor to wind the loft line onto the spools three complete windings.

11 Work at the spools is complete for the moment. Go to the fl oor.12 Install the raceway/pipe brackets.

a) Cut the cables at the same level line. About 1,530 mm above the fl oor is a good height. This will result in the pipe being at 1,220 mm from the fl oor. Low trim of the batten is an issue that can be determined in discussion with the user. b) Find the thimble, compression sleeve and cable clips from the box. c) Install the thimble onto the raceway/pipe bracket.

d) Terminate the cable onto the thimble using either compression sleeves or cable clips.13 Install the pipe batten. a) Using the “U” bolts provided with the bracket attach the pipe to the brackets. b) Hand-tighten all “U” bolts only at fi rst with the pipe in place. c) Adjust the location of the pipe. d) When the location of the pipe is satisfactory, tighten all “U” bolt nuts.14 If appropriate, install cable management system. If optional Draper cable management system is provided for electric screens, or if cable management system is provided by others, follow instructions provided with the system.15 It is best if stage lighting fi xtures can be installed onto the lighting battens at this point in the installation. Doing so will result in establishing a center of grav- ity that is as low as possible. The pipe clamp bolts must be tightened on the “C” clamps.16 Set upper limit switch. a) Set upper limit switch. b) Replace limit switch cover back onto the motor spool.17 Run the batten down and up to test three times.

Electrical Work18 Install fl ex armor (supplied by others) onto the multicables.19 Complete electrical hookup of circuits according to the hook up chart provided.20 Focus stage lighting as required in the initial scope.

TorkStar Limit Switch AdjustmentPlease Note: Two travel limit switches are provided. Which becomes the Upper one and which is the Lower one depends on the direction of rotation of the winch drum while the unit is being raised. This is de ter mined by the needs of each instal-lation.

Caution: Be careful to check which switch is for Upper and which for Lower before adjusting them. Failure to do this could result in damage to the unit as it will over-travel because of having adjusted the wrong switch. Always shut power off from the winch when working inside the electrical compartment.Setting the Upper Limit:➀ Operate unit to desired upper position.➁ Loosen the two thumb nuts holding the upper limit switch.➂ Slide the upper limit switch across until the blade contacts the limit trip rod, then slide it a little further until an audible click is heard as the switch opens. Tighten the thumb nuts. The top limit it is now set.Setting the Lower Limit:➃ Run the unit down to the desired lower stop position and set the lower limit switch in the same way.➄ Run up and down again to check the settings.

Preparing Cable Terminations

➀ Turn back (TB) specifi ed amount of rope from thimble/loop. Apply fi rst clip one base width from dead end (DE) of rope. Use torque wrench to tighten evenly, alternating from one nut to the other until reaching the recommended torque.➁ When two clips are required, apply the second clip as near the loop/thimble as possible. Use torque wrench to tighten evenly, alternating until reaching the recommended torque. When more than two clips are required, apply the second clip as near the loop/thimble as possible, turn nuts on second clip fi rmly, but do not tighten.➂ When three or more clips are required, space additional clips equally between fi rst two. Take up the rope slack and use torque wrench to tighten on each clip evenly, alternating from one nut to the other until reaching recommended torque.IMPORTANT: Apply fi rst load to test the assembly. This load should be of equal or greater weight than loads expected in use. Next, check and use torque wrench to retighten to recommended torque. In accordance with good rigging and maintenance practices, the wire rope end termination should be inspected periodically for wear, abuse, and general adequacy. See page 3 for wire rope inspection instructions.

Inspecting Wire Rope for Signs of Excess WearHow Often to Look The frequency of inspections depends on how often the equipment is used. No matter how infrequently the Tork Star is used, a thorough inspection should be carried out annually at a minimum. Equipment which is going to be used frequently should be inspected approximately every 300 uses.

Where to Look The stress points most likely to suffer from excess wear are along the attach-ment points. However, wear and damage can occur at any point along the wire rope, so the entire length should be checked. All rope terminations (cable clamps, thimbles, loops, Nico sleeves) should also be inspected.

How to Look Make sure you are wearing tough work gloves. Wrap a cotton cloth gently around the wire rope and either operate the Tork Star or manually work your way along the cables. If there are snags or other damage developing, the cotton cloth will catch on them. Meanwhile, visually inspect the wire rope for signs of abrasion, corrosion and discoloration.

What to Look For Lift lines must be inspected periodically for signs of wear. Visually inspect the wire rope, looking for broken or fl at wires, corrosion, excessive wear or signs of chemical etching. Make sure the wire rope is not rubbing against anything at any point along the run, and that it is free of dirt and grease. Cable thimbles and loops should continue to hold their shape and not be elongated.
