Ingersoll Rand LV Serie Manual De Instalación Y Operación página 5

Check that load chain stopper or anchor is securely installed in the last link of the free end of the load chain. The load
chain stopper or anchor is intended to prevent the load chain from becoming disengaged from the hoist and is not intended
to support the full load.
• Do not continue to operate the hoist after the chain stopper or anchor has contacted the hoist body as damage
may occur to the hoist resulting in a falling load which can cause severe injury, death or property damage.
• The clicking sound of the pawl on the ratchet gear is normal when a load is being raised.
LV Hoist Operation
(Refer to Dwg. MHP0561)
Positioning Unloaded Hook (FREE CHAIN)
Short Distances
1. Set the selector lever to neutral (center position).
2. Grip the free knob and turn clockwise.
Long Distances
1. Set the selector lever to neutral (center position).
2. While pressing down the retaining pawl, pull the
free knob out. The hand lever and brake cover will
pull away from the hoist body. Release pawl.
3. Pull down on the load chain to move the hook to
the desired location.
4. Stop free-chaining by moving the selector lever to
the down position. Press down on the retaining
pawl and hold. Push the free knob in. Rotate the
free knob slightly clockwise if necessary. Hand
lever and brake cover will move to hoist body.
Release pawl.
5. Remove remaining slack by turning free knob
clockwise. This resets the brake and allows normal
ratcheting to resume.
• Do not use excessive force to engage free knob or damage may occur to the gears.
Lifting or Lowering the Load
Select direction of movement and ratchet hand lever back and forth, see below:

removed and the hoist begins lifting the load.
