of application of the Maximum Working Load of 500 kg, the surface will have to support 2000 kg.
Entry angle of the lifting rope on the Top-Crank LokHead Rigging Winch 500 INTCLHRW500
The 8° entry angle of the rope on the Winch with a tolerance of ±2° is ensured by the rope guide
installed on the plate to avoid rope overrides.

Check the entry angle of the rope. To avoid rope overrides, damage of the Winch or rendering the
Winch unusable, leading to loss of control, with the risk of serious injury or death, the angle must be
8° with a tolerance of ±2
Install the Winch so that the drive gear is positioned where the rope enters the Winch drum (see figure

Entry angle of the lifting rope on the Top-Crank LokHead Rigging Winch 500
INTCLHRW500KIT
The Winch must be installed so that the lifting rope can reach the Winch drum through the pigtail, with
a deflection angle on any plane not exceeding 30° (see figure 16.4-16.5). If necessary, the installation
should use idle pulleys to ensure a correct load on the Winch. The pigtail should not have any angular
load.
The Winch must be installed in such a position as to allow sufficient working space around, so as not
to hinder the operation of the handle.
The Winch must be installed in a position that ensures the visibility of the lifting trajectory by the
operator at all times.
