Operation and Installation Manual
Never use wire ropes that are not the specified original wire
ropes approved for the application. Abide by the details about the
wire rope type and diameter.
Hoists for manual emergency operation with hand crank may
only be operated with the hand crank in emergencies (power
failure, rescue).
The wire rope inlet is on the side of the mounting cross-beam.
This corresponds to the load side of the hoist. The wire rope
outfeed is on the unloaded side of the hoist. The unloaded side
of the hoist may be loaded with a maximum of 100 kg (e.g. via
the wire rope pre-tensioning).
