Tranzsporter Solar Plywood Panel Saddle Carriage TP400

Description

Transport wide solar panels, plywood sheets, and mower deck baffle panels up ladder tracks without cargo damage. The Tranzsporter Solar Plywood Panel Saddle carriage attachment delivers 400 lbs of sheet handling capacity on TP400 hoists. This steel carriage conversion expands material handling capability. It requires a complete Tranzsporter TP400 platform carriage to mount.

Formed heavy-gauge steel forms the dual saddle brackets, distributing sheet material weight across the hoist carriage frame without bending. Rubberized edge protectors cushion the bottom tray channels, preventing edge chipping on delicate glass solar modules and finished wood panels. Quick-release pin brackets attach to the base carriage frame, allowing rapid field conversion between box cargo and sheet cargo modes. Welded steel tie-off loops anchor transport straps.

• Integrated strap tie-off loops provide anchor points for cargo ratchet straps
• Corrosion-resistant powder coat finish repels outdoor rain and jobsite grime

Carriage Saddle Dyno Load Telemetry

Static load testing verifies 800 lbs of downward force across the dual saddle channels with zero bracket bend. Guide roller drag forces along ladder rails hold under 6 lbs under a full 400 lb sheet payload. Dynamic track travel tests confirm panel stability up 60-degree track angles at 110 FPM hoist speeds. Acoustic output measures 62 dBA during track travel. Clamp brackets resist 1800 lbs of tensile shear.

Material Hoisting Safety Setup Boundaries

Pin the saddle brackets securely to the TP400 base carriage and verify cotter pin retention before loading sheet panels. Secure all sheet goods to the carriage frame using heavy ratchet straps through factory tie-off loops. Never transport personnel or unsecured loose materials on this sheet saddle attachment.

• Rubber cradle cushion strips require inspection for gouges or peeling after each job
• Mounting pin holes demand visual checks for oblong metal wear every fifty operating hours
• Steel bracket welds require cleaning and inspection for impact cracks twice per year
