This is the hoist, it's designed to be moveable/relocatable however I fixed it in place and had new hydraulic lines made up to run across the roof truss to the motor located on a side wall rather than the trolley.

I used these base plates in combination with the hoist and dyna-bolted to slab.

I used chemset and 20mm threaded rod so not to put and extra pressure on the slab.
I have EXACTLY the same set up...
