Inspection of the brake
Immediately contact the manufacturer, if irregularities are found (e.g. defective friction disks).
All components of the brake must be checked for wear, damage, discoloration caused by
overheating and for functioning.
Friction disks must always be kept free from grease, oil, water or dirt. Check the bonding of
the friction disks.
Replacing the hand chain
ATTENTION: Chains must only be replaced by chains of the same material, with the
same quality and the same dimensions.
• An open load chain link is required as a tool. It can be obtained by using an abrasive wheel
to cut a section from an existing link with the same dimension. The length of the cut section
must at least correspond to the thickness of the link.
• Open the old hand chain (preferably on the connection link) and suspend the open link into
the loose end of the hand chain which lies "in front of" the hand chain wheel.
• Suspend the new hand chain also in the open link and pull it through the chain guides and
over the hand chain wheel.
• Do not fit a twisted chain. The welds must face outwards.
• Separate the old hand chain including the open connection link from the new hand chain and
connect the two loose ends of the new hand chain by means of a new hand chain connection
link.
