1. Assembling the overheight frame

Timars overheight frame is often delivered in three parts inside a container. The overheight frame
must be assembled in port according to Timars instructions. If this is the case you will find an
assembling instruction and a CD with your goods. On the CD you will find an animation showing
how to make this assembling. Follow these instructions and contact Timars if you have any
questions about the assembling.

2. First time use

Before putting the TIMARS OHA-frame in operation
please check the following item.

1. Put the OHA-frame on the quay surface.

2. See that all of the lower twistlock are in open position and that the safety pin
has partly filled the cut-out on the twistlock nut.

3. The indicator discs, 1 per longside, both shows green for open (if you
ordered other colour then this colour indicates open).

4. Place a parent spreader on top of the OHA-frame with all four twistlocks
correct located inside the corner castings and lock. Now lift the overheight
frame.

5. Extend stepless to desired size from 20 to 40 fot ISO box size. The mid beam will follow the short
side half that for the moment has little higher resistans than the other when telecopicing. When
reaching the inside stop the other side will extend. The opposite will happen when rectracting.
This is normal.
Observe that the parent spreader must be able to telescope with locked twistlocks to be able to
telescope the overheight frame. There might be a bypass function on the parent spreader to be
able to do this.

6. If you have the equipment that is shown on the pictures below then your OHA is equipped with a
SOC-system (further information see section SOC-system). Please continue the instructions
below.

7. Check that the display on the NAPS inside the electrical box is on and shows the voltage of the
batteries. If there are any error, please contact Timars or check the NAPS error list inside this
manual

8. Place the parent spreader inside the top corner castings of the OHA and lock (see item 4).

9. Open the parent twistlocks again. The SOC-system control lamp is now lightend up for a number
preset seconds (standard 20 sec.)

10. Check that SOC valve (On top of frame on SOC side) is in SOC-enable position.

Now test the Timars OHA with a container according the function description. If test is successful,
you are now able to use the overheight frame.

3. Function Description – UNIVERSAL OHA-frame

3.1 Application
The Timars OHA is an automatic overheight frame to be used together with any kind of OEM parent
spreader, fixed frame or telescopic, in crane, reachstacker or straddler carrier for LOLO-handling of
flats/bolsters/ISO container or overheight containers.
It is a mechanical solution and some versions also available with a SOC-system; eg.
Electrical survey system.
No additional power supply or hydraulics and even more important no additional equipment or
modification on the parents spreader is necessary.
The frame is only to be lifted by a parent spreader, equipped with four (4) ISO twistlocks, in the
four corner castings of the OHA-frame. The cargo that is to be connected to the OHA-frame
twistlocks, must have four ISO corner castings and they all must be connected and locked (indicated
by red discs) when lifted.

If the OHA-frame is not hanging on all four twistlocks of the parent spreader or if the
goods connected to the twistlocks of the OHA-frame have less than four functional corner
castings risk for injuries on personnel or damages on material is unevenable.

The free overheight distance is depending of which alternative you have chosen, see delivery doc.
The OHA-frame is secured to the parent spreader by the twistlocks of the parent spreader only.
The maximum SWL is marked on the mid/center beam, on the manufacturer identity plate and in
the documentation as well.
The frame can be of fixed or telescopic design. To extend/retract the size of the telescopic OHA-
frame use a telescopic parent spreader. The spreader must be able to telescope with locked
twistlocks. Alternative use a forklift truck lifting in one of the short end side for the extension or
retraction of the frame together again.
For all functions on the parent spreader please always consult each parent spreader documentation
separately.

3.2 Moving the OHA-frame

When the OHA-frame is moved, while in operation or just transported between two locations, it
must always be locked to either to the parent spreader twistlocks or locked to a flat by the
twistlocks of the OHA-frame. Any other solution is causing big risk for the OHA-frame to slide/tilt in
whole or that one of the short end side is extended/retract unwilling by itself and therefore out of
control and responsibility for the manufacturer.

When OHA-frame is not in use, it should be left in 20ft position on the ground or locked
onto a container or flat.

Warning!
The Timars OHA-frame needs no additional personnel, other than the operators, and therefore it is
prohibited to walk nearby or to be situated under/above the OHA-frame, with or without attached
cargo while it is in operation or moved. In case of so the manufacturer can not be held responsible
for damages here of.

3.3 ATTACHING/DEATTCHING of the parent spreader to/from the TIMARS OHA-FRAME

Use only a parent spreader that has ISO twistlocks and with ISO box measures. See to that all four
twistlocks of the parent spreader is inside and corner castings of the OHA-frame.
Now lock the twistlocks of the parent spreader.
Deattaching of the parent spreader from the Timars OHA-frame is simply done by unlocking the
twistlocks of the parent spreader at any time when the OHA-frame is put down.

3.4 LOCKING & UNLOCKING of TIMARS OHA-frame twistlocks:

When the parent spreader is locked to the TIMARS OHA-frame and the SOC-control lamp is
lightened up (see section SOC-system) the twistlocks of the OHA-frame are altered every time the
parent spreader starts to lift. If your OHA-frame is not equipped with a SOC-safety system or if it
has been turned off by the manual control valve the twistlocks of the OHA-frame are altered every
time the parent spreader starts to lift. The Timars OHA-frame works by gravity & lift principle.

To release the SOC-blocking just open and close the twistlocks of the parent spreader, while
they are inside the OHA-frame and the OHA-frame is located inside the corner casting of a flat,
bolster or open top container. If you wait too long until you lift the frame the SOC-system will go
back to blocking the twistlocks again the

The advantage by this is that when ever the operator would like to leave the OHA-frame locked onto
a box or a flatrack without the parent spreader attached he just open the twistlocks of the parent
spreader and lifts the parent spreader away.
A vertical rotating disc, located on inside of the left hand side leg (from the long side view) of the
OHA-frame, indicates opened (green) or locked (red) position of the OHA-frame twistlocks. Other
colour can be decided on request. The design of the disc gives distinct and good visuability
information to the operator weather he is located in the crane, reachstacker, straddler carrier or any
other handler.

If the indicator (rotating disc) indicates both red and green at the same time (for example
a slice of green when the rest of the indicator is red) the twistlocks is not in locked or
unlocked position. Do not continue the lifting! Put the cargo down and make the
locking/unlocking procedure again.

3.5 BUILD-IN SAFETY SYSTEMS

The Timars OHA-frame is an intelligent tool that helps the operator to
take control of some possible external errors, such as parts that partly blocks the
inside of the corner casting or shrew corner castings, that may occur on the flatrack/container.

3.5.1 Safety Twistlock Blocking -system (STB-system):

On each twistlock nut there is a cut-out. When the OHA-frame is
resting on its twistlocks or when an individual twistlock is standing
on something the twistlock spring is compressed and the twistlock is
fendering slightly into the leg and a safety pin partly fills the cut-out
space in the twistlock nut. This safety pin are now blocking the
twistlock(s) from turning. There is also a safetypin next to each
twistlock. When OHA is in position the safetypins is pushed up. If
any safety pin isn’t pushed up then the twistlocks will be blocked
from locking.

3.5.2 Safety Torque Limitation -system (STL-

system):
If an OHA twistlock is prevented to twist, either from
STB-System or externally jamed, the Safety Torque
limitation system (STL-system) will still allow the
parent spreader to lift the OHA-frame free for
inspection of the goods beneeth but the twistlocks
of the OHA-frame will remain open.

STL-normal STL-hatch over

3.5.3 Safety Interlink -system (SIL-system):

Both short end sides are linked through a rod system which prevents any undesired
locking through one of the short side. If the twicklocks on the other short end side are
prevented to twist due to the STL/STB-system the force will be big enough to activate
the STL-system on both sides and the twistlocks remain in position.

3.5.4 Safety Operation Control -system (SOC-system):

The SOC-system, when activated, allows the turning of the twistlocks of the Timars OHA. In order to
activate the system simply open the twistlocks of the parent spreader and close again. By doing this
sends a signal to the PLC onboard to release a hatch for some seconds, preset in the PLC, that when
lifting the parent spreader allows the twistlocks of the OHA to turn. The SOC-system is electrical
powered by onboard batteries, which are recharged by solar panels. If by any reason there is an
extream lack of sun during the winter season the SOC-system is also equipped with a AC inlet that
recharge the batteries quickly. If so desire it is also possible to manually by a control valve turn of
the SOC-system. The control lamps are now continuously on and the twistlocks will then turn
everytime the parent spreader is being lifted.

3.5.5 Safety Twistlock Emergancy -system (STE-system):

If, for any reason malfunction of OHA or parent
spreader, the twistlocks are stuck in locked position it
is possible to manually turn each individual twistlock.
See to that the OHA is resting firm on its goods and
that there is no tension on the twistlocks. On the
lower part of the leg there is a cut out. Stick the
hand in and remove the security pin. Lift up the
sliding part of the axle and secure it in its upper
position with the security pin. Now use a standard
block tool/spanner and turn it manually to open
position. Release the OHA-frame from its goods.

normal emergency parted

Important! Before putting it in operation again do not forget to connect the twistlock to the axle
and secure the pin. The shape of the axle only sliding part to go back over the twistlock when you
have it in its correct position.

3.6 Compability to Parent spreader:

The Universal OHA-frame is designed for any kind of spreader brand, fixed or telescopic with ISO
twistlocks located a ISO box container measures.
If you believe you have a special spreader brand please check with us before use.

The parent spreader must allow extend/retraction while parent twistlocks are locked.

3.7 Indications:
An intelligent rotation disc, powered by chains to the twistlocks and
located on the left hand side leg (long side view), indicates red
(closed) or green (open) colour for the operator on reachstacker,
straddler carrier, crane or any other handler.

4. Maintenance
All maintenance and repairing has to be according to the recommendation supplied by the
manufacturer. During this the TIMARS OHA frame must also be disconnected from any
other equipment and placed on a firm surface. If not, the gaurantee will no longer be valid
and the manufacturer can not be held responsible for damages caused hereby.

4.1 Test STB-system

Twice a year test the Safety Twistlocks Blocking-system (STB). Put the
base cast of the Universal OHA frame on a distance leaving the twistlock
free for manual test. Place a steel bar under the twistlock and lift the
twistlock. Feel that the resistance from the spring and insure that the
safety pin fits well in the cut out of the twistlock nut. Afterwards the
twistlock must return to its hanging position. Also test that the safety
pins falls into the cut out.

4.2 Chain tensioner

The TIMARS OHA frame uses chains for
the internal system in the short sides.
When the chains ages it becomes slightly
longer by itself. If the chain becomes to
slacken it might fall off the chains wheels.
Tighten the chains with the
chaintensioner. Thought it is important
that the chain not gets to tight since this
can cause the STB-system to be released
during operation.

4.3 Grease nipples

There are five greasing nipples on the overheight frame. One at each twistlock and one at the
cardan joint on the horizontal axle. Fill up with grease every third month to make the lifetime of the
twistlock longer and decrease the operation torque in the mechanical operation system.

4.4 Lubricate oil on chains

Lubricate the chains inside the overheight frame with chainoil every third month.

4.5 Grease vertical axle

The telescopic axle inside each “leg” on the overheight frame must be
greased to maintain the STE-system. The telescopic axle must be easy to
move up and down.

4.6 Lubricate oil on horizontal axle

Telescope the overheight frame to 40ft. Lubricate the horizontal axle (The axle that connect the
mechanical system from one side to the other side) with a thin mechanical oil to avoid rust and
make telescoping easier. Do not use thick grease since this can make telescoping harder.

4.7 Check solarpanels

Control the solarpanels and clean the solarpanels from oil and dust to make sure efficient loading of
batteries.

Problem.

The Timars OHA frame is locked but only connected in three corner castings of the flatrack
when lifted slightly, meaning one twistlock locked outside the corner casting.

Solution:
1. See section 2.3.5 STE-system how to manually turn the twistlock to open position.
2. Lower down the parent spreader until the top part of the leg has reach its lower
position.
3. Lift the parent spreader, so that the twistlock go back to open position.
4. Put the twistlock (STE-system) back to normal position and secure it.
5. Lower all four twistlocks back into the corner castings.
6. Lift the parent spreader and the Timars OHA is now fully connected to the flatrack.

Problem.
The indicator of the Timars OHA frame does not switch colour when connected to a flat and
lifting the parent spreader.

Solution:
1. Due to the fact that the twistlock of the Timars OHA has an STL-system you need to
inspect /remove wooden pieces, ice or other things inside the croner castings that are
preventing the twistlocks from turning.
2. Place it back again after inspection/correction and lift the parent spreader.

Please note! That if the Timars OHA frame is standing on the quay this is a natural behavour.

Problem.

The indicator is indicating partly red – partly green when slightly lifted.

Solution:
Most likely the operator has not forfilled the lift of the parent spreader until the green top
part of the leg has reached its outer position.
Lower it back down again and make a new lift(s) until it indicates single colour only.
