Anchoring
DANGER!
Danger of severe injuries caused by incorrect anchoring!
High-strength, galvanized bolts and screws can become brittle
and break. Risk of falling and of being injured by falling ob-
jects!
–
High-strength galvanized bolts / screws (10.9 or 12.9)
may not be utilized for anchoring.
–
Utilize bolts / screws with the specified strength.
Specifications detailing the strength of the bolts / screw are listed
in Table 4 on page X. Observe the details in 'Structural require-
ments' on page 6.
The hoist can be anchored with and without an adapter (see pos.
B in Fig. 2).
Anchoring without adapter:
at least 2 screws with self-locking nuts
Anchoring with adapter:
2 screws with self-locking nuts
Bolts of the same strength and equivalent locking can be used
instead of the screws.
See also ' 9.3 Assembly' on page 12.

Load limits
DANGER!
Incorrect anchoring! Incorrect usage!
Danger of death from falling! Risk of being injured by falling
objects!
The strain on the deflection roller, rigging and the anchoring
point increases depending on the arrangement of the hoisting
gear, deflection roller and load!
–
The minimum breaking strength of the deflection rollers,
the rigging and the anchoring points must exceed the
hoist's maximum working load in the given installation
situation by 4 times (see Fig. 6).
The hoist's payload can be increased by reeving the wire rope,
See Fig. 6 (F corresponds to the hoist's maximum working load).
The maximum working load must never be exceeded by using
reeving.
Note:
Reeving the wire rope reduces the hoist speed.

Wire ropes
General
DANGER!
Incorrect wire rope or wire rope with incorrect diameter!
Using an incorrect wire rope leads to a risk of falling or being
injured by falling objects and the risk of malfunctions!
–
In order to operate safely only use original wire ropes
authorized by TRACTEL Greifzug GmbH with the correct
wire rope diameter and the required design.
–
If the load cannot be guided by on-site means then a low-
twist wire rope with a swivel hook or a rope swivel must
be used. Swivel hook and rope swivel must turn freely
when subjected to loads.
–
The required wire rope diameter is listed in Table 1 on
page III. The design is listed in Table 7 on page 22.
The wire rope is included in the scope of delivery.
Alternative wire rope assemblies:

Necessary accessories
The following accessories, which are not part of scope of deliv-
ery, are necessary to use the product:
Rigging and securing equipment with an adequate minimum
breaking strength (see 'Structural requirements' on page 6).
If the wire rope is deflected or reeved: Rigging and securing
equipment with an adequate minimum breaking strength
(see ' 3.3 Equipment description, Structural requirements' on
page 6).
A longer connecting cable can be used if necessary, see
'Electrical connection' on page 12.
