Operation
Operation Information
•
Remove the adhesive tape from the drum before first use.
•
The value of the A-rated noise emissions at the operator's position is less than 70 dB.
•
Supply voltage: 230 V~ ± 10 %, 50 Hz ± 1 %.
•
The appliance must be operated in ambient temperatures of between 5 °C and 40 °C with a
relative humidity of less than 90 %. Height above sea level: max. 1,000 m.
•
The temperature for transport and storage may be between -25 °C and 55 °C. The
maximum temperature must not exceed 70 °C.
•
The user should lift the load off the ground at the slowest possible speed. The cable should
be taut when the load is raised.
•
The motor for the appliance is fitted with a thermostat switch. Whilst the appliance is
operating, the motor may therefore stop. It will restart automatically when it has cooled
down.
•
The appliance is not fitted with a rated power limiter. You should therefore not repeat
attempts to lift a load if the overload trip is limiting the appliance's operation. In this case
the load exceeds the rated capacity of the appliance.
•
Do not leave any suspended loads unsupervised without first taking the appropriate safety
precautions.
•
Fit the appliance with a 10 A fuse or a 10 A residual current operated circuit breaker
(RCCB) to protect the circuit.
•
Do not use the lever as a routine stopping device. It should only be used to stop the
appliance in an emergency.
•
Before you start, ensure that the steel cable is correctly wound around the drum and that
the spacing between the winds is smaller than the steel cable.
•
Ensure that the load is correctly secured to the hook or, if you are using the block and
tackle, the additional hook, and always maintain a safe distance from the load and the steel
cable.
Operation
•
Check whether the emergency stop switch is pressed. Turn the red stop switch clockwise to
release it.
•
Press ▲ to raise the load.
•
Press ▼ to lower the load.
•
Automatic stop mechanism lever: when the maximum lifting height has been reached, the
cut-out weight presses the lever upwards. This trips a limit switch after which the load
cannot be raised any further.
•
Lever for maximum cable length: when the load has reached its lowest possible position, a
limit switch is tripped which makes it impossible to lower the load any further. This limit
switch also prevents the appliance operating in the wrong direction (hook moving in the
opposite direction to the arrow shown on the control switch).
•
The appliance will stop if the emergency stop switch is pressed.
•
In an emergency, immediately press the emergency stop switch to stop the appliance. The
appliance cannot be operated if the emergency stop switch has been pressed.
