2.2 Crane Terms
In order to better understand jib cranes, here are the commonly used terms that are used to specify and design
jibs:

 Anchor Bolts: Large steel bolts used to mount a base mounted pillar jib crane to the Harrington recommended
foundation.

 Boom: The horizontal beam on which the hoist trolley travels.

 Fitting Centers: The distance, centerline to centerline, between two support brackets (fittings) of a wall mounted jib
crane.

 Capacity: The maximum live weight that the crane is designed to support.

 End Stops: Bolted to each end of the boom to prevent the trolley from falling off of the beam.

 Foundation: For free standing pillar base mounted jibs. Foundations are used to support the jib and prevent it from
tipping over.

 Gussets: Reinforcing plates used to stiffen mast at the base plate.

 Head: Houses the roller, and lowers the crushing forces that are imposed on the mast.

 Height Under the Boom (H.U.B.): The distance from the finished floor to the underside of the crane boom. To
find the underboom, take the height of the load, plus the distance the load is lifted, plus the headroom requirements
of the hoist/trolley and any attachments. ( Extra room in addition to the minimum required H.U.B. may be helpful for
crane operations).

 Mast: The vertical member of the jib, which supports the crane. Pillar jibs have round pipes as masts.

 Overall Height: The highest point of the jib crane (including any hardware). A minimum clearance (usually 3”) is
required from any overhead obstruction.

 Hoist: The actual lifting mechanism (powered by electric, air, or manual movement) that hangs from the trolley that
rides on the boom of a jib crane.

 Trolley: The mechanism that travels back and forth on the crane boom (powered by electric, air, or manual
movement) which the hoist hangs from.

 Overturning Moment: The force applied to the mounting structure of a self-supporting pillar jib. This force is
caused by suspending a load from the boom, and is at maximum with full load at the end of the boom

 Rotation Stops: Limits the rotation of a pillar base mounted jib crane boom (which are standard at 360°). Stops are
field welded to the mast.

 Span: The span for a pillar base mounted jib crane is the distance from the center of the mast to the end of the
boom. The span for a column mounted crane is measured from the face of the mounting surface to the end of the
boom. The span for a mast type jib crane is measured from the center of the vertical mast to the end of the boom.

 Thrust and Pull: Thrust and Pull are forces applied to a wall/column mounted jib cranes support structure. Thrust is
the pushing force exerted on the structure, and pull is the tensile, or pulling force. Thrust and Pull are equal to each
other (but opposite in direction), and are given at maximum with full load at the end of the boom.

 Clear Span: The measurement between the end stops on a crane boom.

 Hook Travel: The distance that the hook on the hoist travels.

3.0 Preoperational Procedures

3.1 Pre-Assembly
3.1.1  There must be an adequate wall, column, or truss to support the jib crane. Consult a
qualified structural engineer to determine if the support structure is adequate to support the thrust and
pull of your crane (See Table 2-1 for Thrust and Pull or Crane Drawing)
3.1.2 Ensure there will be sufficient clearance (3” minimum) above the boom throughout the rotation.
3.1.3 Check jib crane for physical damage due to shipping.
3.1.4 Ensure all capacity stickers and warning labels are clearly visible and properly affixed.
3.1.5 Check packing list to ensure no parts have been lost prior to initiating assembly of crane.
3.1.6 See Jib Crane Drawing for bolt locations and dimensions.
3.1.7 Read entire manual before installing the crane.

3.2 Installation
3.2.1  If multiple cranes were ordered, locate stamped serial number on each crane part
for proper part matching during installation. Although crane parts may appear to be identical, each
crane is assembled and built separtely. All parts that do not have the same stamped serial number may
not line up properly for installation.
3.2.2 Reference Jib Crane Drawing included in the crane information packet.
3.2.3 Make sure the support structure (COLUMN) is plumb for installation. Prepare the COLUMN for jib
fittings.
3.2.4 Disassemble TOP and BOTTOM FITTINGS by removing PINS and separating the REAR HALF from
the FRONT HALF. See Figure 3-1.
3.2.5 Use the Crane Drawing as a guide to determine the bracket hole layout for the TOP FITTING (Rear
Half) and BOTTOM FITTING (Rear Half). Make sure the bracket holes are properly aligned.
3.2.6 Drill bolt holes for the TOP FITTING (Rear Half) and BOTTOM FITTING (Rear Half), and bolt them to
supporting structure (COLUMN). See Figure 3-2. Do not torque bolts until brackets are plumb. Note:
Hardware to bolt fittings to COLUMN is supplied by others.
3.2.7 Plumb TOP FITTING and BOTTOM FITTING through pivot holes. If necessary, shim between
COLUMN and fittings (shims by others).

Figure 3-1 Fitting Disassembly Figure 3-2 Fittings to Structure

12
3.2.8 Bolt TOP FITTING (Front half) to BOOM, and bolt BOTTOM FITTING (Front Half) to STEM (see Figure 3-3).
Refer to Jib Crane Drawing for hardware sizes and locations. For torque values, see Table3-1.
3.2.9 Reinstall BEARING into FRONT HALF of fittings (See Figure 3-1).
3.2.10 Raise jib into position and insert PINS. Ensure WASHERS are installed on the bottom side of each fitting.
Secure PINS by inserting cotter pins into the pin holes. (see Figure 3-4)
3.2.11 Check jib for plumbness by permitting crane to swing freely. Make adjustments where needed by shimming
between supporting structure (COLUMN) and TOP and/or BOTTOM FITTINGS.
3.2.12 Ensure all fittings are greased.
3.2.13 Check rotation of jib for alignment, binds, or slow downs. Make sure all obstructions or interferences are
removed.
3.2.14 If applicable, install MECHANICAL ROTATION STOPS – See Section 3.3.
3.2.15 Bolt two inner END STOPS to BOOM. Slide trolley hoist on BOOM, then bolt two remaining END STOPS to
BOOM. Make sure trolley hoist hits the END STOP and not the jib STEM. Move END STOPS to correct
location if needed. (For units with Tight Wire Kit, refer to Section 3.4).

6.0 Lubrication

6.1 The most economical way to maintain a jib crane and keep it in good operating condition
is to lubricate all moving parts regularly.

6.2 Regular inspection of all parts should be made and all loose parts should be adjusted.
Parts that become worn should be replaced immediately.

6.3 The lubrication interval varies with the use of the machine. A crane operating 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, should demand lubrication once a week. Whereas a standard duty
crane, operating eight hours a day on a five day week should be lubricated once every two
to three weeks. Cranes under a standby classification, being used once or twice a month,
should be lubricated at least once every six months.

6.4 The actual interval from one lubrication to the next depends entirely upon the type and
length of operation to which the crane is subjected. These factors are variable and
sometimes cannot be definitely determined. In this case, the crane operator or
maintenance engineer would determine when the crane should be lubricated.

6.5 The top and bottom jib fittings require lubrication. They are serviced by pressure type
fittings.

6.6 The recommended lubricants for these bearings are:

Texaco Marfax No. 0 for below 32 degrees F

Texaco Marfax No. 1 for above 32 degrees F

6.7 If Texaco products are not available, equivalent lubricants are satisfactory.
