	OVERVIEW TABLE

700 Series Standard Options:

Optional Main Beam Lengths (BXXX):
Main Beams may be ordered in any length between Trunnion Interface Mounts within the limits shown below. "XXX" = length in inches between trunnion interface mounts (1" increments).

MODEL	MIN	MAX
739	29"	141"
747	37"	141"
759	49"	141"
739DB	29"	154"
747DB	37"	154"
759DB	49"	154"

Lengths shorter than the MIN shown above can be dangerous due to tip over. Lengths longer than MAX shown above require a special beam.

While the two End Frames can be adjusted toward each other to accommodate smaller length parts, excessively long beams with a small part will leave the Main Beams extending from each End Frame enough to be inconvenient. It therefore is desirable to order the Main Beam close to the size of the actual part-to-be-handled.

Optional Trunnion Interface/Mount/Clamp:

Angle Interface (A30) - The angle interface offers the most adaptability for customers. Either of the 3" perpendicular surfaces of the angle may be bolted or clamped to. The standard length is 30 inches with no bolt holes. The standard finish is clear zinc plate.
Mounting Plate Interface (P8) (Not available on SR or DR option. See P12/A30 options.) - The Part-to-be-handled can be easily bolted to this flange type interface. The standard size is 3" by 8" with a four-hole bolt pattern spaced at 7" by 2" centered on the plate. The four holes will accept up to ½" diameter bolts. The standard finish is clear zinc plate.

Optional Combination Mounting Plate / Angle Clamp (P12/A30):
(Available only with SR or DR option)

Angle Interface (A30) - The Angle Interface offers the most adaptability for customers. Either of the perpendicular surfaces of the angle may be bolted or clamped to. The standard length is 30 inches with no bolt holes. The standard finish is clear zinc plate. The A30 Angle is bolted to the P12 Mounting Plate and may be removed if the customer desires to mount directly to the P12.
Mounting Plate Interface (P12) - The Part-to-be-handled can be easily bolted to this flange type in interface. The standard size is 8" x 12" with an eight-hole bolt pattern spaced at 10.5" x 6" centered on the plate. The eight holes will accept up to 1/2" diameter bolts. The standard finish is clear zinc plate.

Index Plate shown with mounting plate interface

Optional Index Plate (IND15):
Indexed @ 15° increments to prevent trunnion rotation with a lock pin. The Index plate can be supplied with either the P8 Mounting Plate Interface(shown below) or the A30 Angle Interface, or the P12/A30 Combination Mounting Plate / Angle Clamp.

Optional Index Plate with Index Stops (INDS15)
Identical to the IND15 option shown above but with the addition of two Index Stops. The Stops can be bolted into any of the index holes in the Index Plate to prevent rotation beyond a desired point. This can be a desirable option if your part-to-be-handled has a protrudance that could hit the main beam or floor or other obstacle when rotated beyond a certain orientation.

Optional Casters:

-( ) Standard swivel caster: Tech-lock brake and 5" diameter x 2" wide polyurethane wheel.
- (C1) Optional heavy duty Impak® swivel caster (C1): Swivel lock, Tread Lock brake and 5" diameter x 2" wide polyurethane wheel.
(C2) Standard swivel caster with conductive wheel (C2): Tech-Lock brake and 5" diameter x 2" wide wheel. (not shown)

Optional Leveling Jacks (J0, J1, J2, J3 OR J4):
4 bolt-on Leveling Jacks allow for leveling of load while in a stationary position. Orientation of jack handles relative to the frame must be specified. See the JACK HANDLE ORIENTATION TABLE below to determine which handle orientation suits your application. Codes J1 through J4 are shown. Code J0, which is not shown, is for jack mounting plates only but does not include jacks. The J0 option allows for future addition of jacks.
The Jacks have 1" of rise for each 8 turns of the crank handle.

Optional Heavy Duty Gearbox:

Optional 60:1 ratio Single reduction Gearbox (SR): This gearbox offers heavier duty construction than the standard gearbox, plus low backlash and slightly more resistance to stair stepping. (See Stair stepping Technical Section)

NOTE: Addition of the optional SR or DR gearbox decreases the vertical riser adjustment by 2".

Optional 250:1 ratio Double Reduction Gearbox (DR): This gearbox offers heavier duty construction than the standard gearbox, plus low backlash, 3000 in-lbs easy crank torque (versus the standard 2000 in-lbs easy crank torque), and is immune to stair stepping at nearly all reasonable inertia's and torques. (See Stair stepping Technical Section)

NOTE: Addition of the optional SR or DR gearbox decreases the vertical riser adjustment by 2".

Optional Fixture Finishes (N), (C):

Electroless nickel plating (N): This option replaces all zinc-plated parts with either electroless nickel-plated parts or stainless steel parts.
Clean Room option (C): This option is identical to the (N) option but with the addition of electroless nickel-plating on the interior of the end frame slide tubes and vertical support tubes. The exterior of the gearbox as well as the exterior of the end frames are painted with high gloss urethane or epoxy paint in place of the standard textured enamel paint.

Optional Ground Lug and Drag Chain (E):
For use in electrostatically protected areas (EPA's). Proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding of the fixture must be a part of the overall EPA design. (See Technical section discussion on ESD)
