3.6.1.3
First lift
After determining the number of wraps required on the drum, test
the setup by lifting your load one meter and lowering it to the
ground.
3.6.2
Lowering a load
ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES.
YOUR PORTABLE CAPSTAN PULLING/LIFTING WINCH
IS EQUIPPED WITH A ROPE GRABBING SYSTEM. THIS
SYSTEM IS NOT DESIGNED TO STOP FAST MOVING
LOADS; DAMAGE CAN OCCUR TO THE ROPE AND/OR
THE ROPE GRABBING SYSTEM WHEN SHOCK LOADED,
AND POSSIBLY LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC FAILURE.
DO NOT WRAP THE ROPE AROUND YOUR HANDS OR
YOUR BODY! ALSO BEWARE OF THE ROPE
ACCUMULATING NEXT TO YOU; MAKE SURE YOUR FEET
DO NOT GET TANGLED IN IT.
THE PORTABLE CAPSTAN WINCH
LOWER HEAVY LOADS OVER GREAT HEIGHTS. FRICTION
OF THE ROPE ON THE CAPSTAN DRUM WILL GENERATE
HEAT THAT COULD DETERIORATE OR EVEN MELT THE
ROPE. YOU MAY WANT TO RUN SOME TESTS IN ORDER
TO EXPERIMENT. YOU CAN ALSO USE PULLEY BLOCKS
ON THE LOAD TO REDUCE FRICTION ON THE DRUM.
AFTER EACH LOWERING OPERATION, IT IS IMPERATIVE
TO CHECK ROPE CONDITION.
NEVER GO OVER THE RATED LIFTING CAPACITY OF THE
PORTABLE CAPSTAN PULLING/LIFTING WINCH
SINGLE LINE.
NEVER BYPASS THE ROPE GRABBING SYSTEM.
NEVER SHOCK LOAD THE SYSTEM.
DO NOT TOUCH THE CAPSTAN DRUM IMMEDIATELY AFTER
OPERATION AS IT WILL GET HOT AND BURN BARE SKIN.
When you stop lifting with the Portable Capstan Pulling/Lifting
Winch
TM
, the rope grabbing system engages, therefore, holds a
load in position and keeps the rope under tension. To release it,
follow these steps:
1)
Figure 1 (A): Pull horizontally (and gently) on the pulling
rope to engage the throttle, this will release the tension
applied by the rope grabbing system on the pulling rope;
2)
Figure 1 (B): Pull gently on the rubber handle of the rope
attached to the rope grabbing system; this will disengage
the system.

drum and a light load) while keeping the rope grabbing
system slightly open;
4)
Figure 2 (B): Release the tension applied to the rubber
handle, this will re-engage the rope grabbing system. You
can now let go the pulling rope and grab it further;
5)
Repeat steps 1 to 4 until the load is at desired position or
completely lowered;
6)
Once at desired position, let the rubber handle go, this
will re-engage the system (if needed);

7)
If needed, stop the engine with the on/off switch.
3.6.2.1 Entanglement
3.6.2.2 Sending the rope back down
After lifting objects, you may want to send the rope back down.
Since there is no reverse on the winch and friction is in cause,
simply disengage the rope grabbing system, remove the rope from
the capstan drum to eliminate friction and let the rope back down. If
the rope does not come down, you may have to attach a small rope
to it (prior to lifting) in order to pull it back down.
3.6.2.3 Disengaging the rope grabbing system
TM
IN
To disengage the rope grabbing system, open the spring-loaded
cam upwards and let it rest on the frame of the rope grabbing
system (Figure 1, 1). To re-engage it, lift it upward again and bring
it back towards the pulling rope (Figure 1, 2).

DO NOT COMPLETELY DISENGAGE THE
ROPE GRABBING SYSTEM, IN CASE OF
EMERGENCY, SIMPLY LET THE RUBBER
HANDLE GO, THE SYSTEM WILL RE-ENGAGE.
NEVER LET THE PULLING ROPE SLIDE SUDDENLY IF A
LOAD IS SUSPENDED.
BEWARE OF ROPE SNARLS WHILE LOWERING. IF ROPE
GETS TANGLED, PULL ON ROPE WHILE ENGINE IS
RUNNING UNTIL CLEARED.
