MY 250 Make sure that MY 2501 is mounted in such a way that no one can touch it directly For example when hanging MY 2501 make sure it is high enough up not to hit anyone s head or run into any obstruction in its movement Always keep MY 2501 away from any inflammable material Mounting MY 250 is a job that requires qualified personnel with experience If the personnel doing the installation lack these qualifications do not use them to do the installation Using M10 10mm bolts screw the C clamps onto the base of MY 250 make sure that the bolts are firmly tightened but take care not to over tighten Fit a suitable safety chain to MY 250 5 center hole and attach to the truss or whatever MY 2501 is attached to Metric explanation If you go to a good hardware store like Home Depot or Lowe s you will be purchasing bolts that have written on the packaging 10mm 1 5mm x 25mm The last figure of 25mm can be a higher value read on 10mm is the diameter of the bolt itself 10mm is roughly 0 4 of an inch In engineering drawings 10mm is also written or described as M10 1 5mm is the distance between each thread or turn of the screw Engineering drawings refer to this as the pitch of the screw Now in places like Home Depot they stock 10mm bolts with 1 0mm 1 25mm and 1 5mm pitch So be careful you buy the right pitch 1 5mm 25mm is the minimum length of bolt you should use Bolts are available in 5mm steps So you can get 25mm 30mm 35mm and
