Atlantic lift freight changing roller - 03/07/24 02:25 PM
We have an 8000lbs freight that top roller is gone. Realize that have to cut rail to get at roller but it's down 4' from top of car. Do we cut hole in cab as well to Access from inside cab? Chain fail side of cab to take pressure off roller to change? Once rail cut out move car to open spot and have all pressure on the other roller? Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

If you cut the rail how are you putting it back together?
Can you post pictures?

You have to cut rail to change roller then weld back together after

I would love to see pics of this. It sounds like a Giant brand chain hydro material lift

Defintely call Atlantic lifts, you have to cut out a section and weld it back in afterward normally, but maybe since it is a top roller there is a way to take it off through the top.
