Mounting Traverse System - Invacare Ec-Track Manuel De Maintenance

• Wall support leg profile (adjust
length).
• Support console.
• Wall support foot.
• Plastic cover plugs.
• Screws M6.
The wall support leg is cut in the
right length, in the end facing
against the floor.
When measuring the profile length,
include a minimum distance
between the top of the bracket and
the ceiling. Minimum distance to
be observed:
• M-profile: min. 80 mm
• L-profile: min. 150 mm
Mount the wall support leg on the wall with three screws.
Use Ø6 mm screws. The wall material determines the
choice of screws.
For mounting into gypsum, we recommend using
(e.g. Hilti HGA or equal) sheer connector for
cavities (e.g. Hilti HGA or equal).
In case of skirting boards, either use the high wall
support foot or cut the skirting boards.
NOTICE!
– Remember to make allowance for the wall
support foot.
– Always install wall support leg directly on the
wall in their full length.

3.8 Mounting traverse system

The parallel rails are mounted in ceiling or wall as
described in the previous section on the current mounting
conditions.
Either if the two parallel rails are mounted using quick or
standard fittings, it is i mportant t hat a ny d eviation of
parallelism of the two rails does not exceed +/- 2 mm.
When mounting parallel rails, it is important to take into
account whether it must be possible to insert a traverse
trolley later on or not. If not, the rails may run all the way
out to the wall (minimum distance from rail to wall must
always be 60 mm). In this case it is important that the
traverse trolley and end stop are pushed into the rail
before the rail is mounted. However, if it is possible to
insert the trolley later on, it is important that there is a
minimum distance between the one end of the rail and the
wall of 350 mm.
Remember that the end stop in the parallel rails is to be
placed so that the two traverse trolleys hit the end stops
simultaneously.
The distance between two parallel rails is always measured
from center to center of the two rails.
Generally, the following applies to the traverse rail with
reference to the free span between the parallel rails as
well as the max. protrusion a rail can handle.
1586749-E
• Rail profile S: max. free span 2 m, max. protrusion
200 mm
• Rail profile M: max. free span 4 m, max. protrusion
400 mm
• Rail profile L: max. free span 8 m, max. protrusion
500 mm
When a rail is mounted as partially between-hung,
it is always the max. protrusion for the S-profile
that is applicable.
When mounting the traverse rail, there are three possible
methods:
The traverse rail is between-hung
The measurement for the traverse rail is always the
distance between the two parallel rails minus 86 mm.
When the traverse rail is mounted between-hung, the
hoist trolley is inserted in the traverse rail and the end
stops are placed loosely at both ends of the traverse rail.
Remember that the rubber plug on the end stop always
should face inward toward the hoist trolley. Lift the rail on
top of the traverse trolley, so that the end stop's 2 bolts
align with the two holes in the traverse trolley, then secure
it with washers and lock nuts. Before the rail is securely
fastened, it is important that the distance between the
traverse rail and each of the parallel rails is equal in both
ends. When the rail is secured, install the cover plugs on
lock nuts and in the rails.
The traverse rail is under-hung
When the parallel rails are mounted and the traverse
trolleys and end stops are positioned and secured, install
quick traverse brackets underneath the traverse trolley,
as shown on the drawing.
Regardless whether the two traverse trolleys are facing
opposite each other or the same way, it is important that
the two quick traverse brackets face the same way, or else
there will be problems when mounting the rail.
When the traverse rail is correctly placed lengthwise and
secured in the quick traverse bracket with the Allen screw,
the rail is locked using a lathe center screw, which is
