Abstract: A parapet-mounted hoist made from an elongated cradle. The cradle is essentially a rectangular box-shaped mounting frame having two pairs of mounting frame legs secured to the parapet with cradle bolts. A steel square tubed safety brace mount is seated between an inside surface of the cradle's top frame, and the parapet wall. The safety brace mount has a back segment extending slightly beyond a rear plane of the mounting frame, and a forward segment extending slightly beyond a front plane of the mounting frame. The safety brace mount has a threaded safety brace pin penetrating its wall. An elongated steel safety brace having a proximal end positioned within the back segment of the safety brace mount. A boom mount having a vertically oriented cradle stub is disposed on the outside surface of the cradle. The cradle stub has a lower end affixed to the outside surface, and an upper end supporting two parallel, horizontal mounting plates.
