Operating Instructions - ENGLISH
4.5.- Hold: Release the winch handle, it will remain in position by the action of the
winch's automatic brake. Ensure the KAT lock has introduced in to the profile by turning
the handle slightly anti-clockwise.
4.6.- Continue elevating: Turn the winch handle again clockwise and lift the load until
the second profile is fully extended. Release the handle which will remain fixed by the
winch's automatic brake and proceed to ensure that the KAT lock has introduced into the
second profile by turning the handle again anti-clockwise. The tower can be stopped in
any desired intermediate position. Simply release the winch handle and secure the tower
by inserting the corresponding KAT lock into the hole which is closest to the required
position.
4.7.- Descent: Descending the load follows the same procedure but in reverse. Firstly
unlock the KAT lock and turn the winch handle anti-clockwise, until the first profile is com-
pletely folded down. Now unlock the next KAT lock and retract the second profile. Just as
when lifting the load, the lift may be stopped at any intermediate position.
4.8.- Transport: When transporting / carrying the lift it is necessary to fold the tower by
retracting all the profiles completely. Then close the sliding support piece and fix it with
the safety lock and tightening the knob.
5.- MAINTENANCE.
5.1.- All cables must be checked regularly. Faulty cables must be replaced immediately.
Do not use the lifter with faulty cables as it is potentially very dangerous. Only use DIN
3060 cables, supplied from an authorised dealer.
5.2.- The lifter is delivered ex factory completely greased. Depending on its mechanical
use though, we recommend that the crown wheel of the winch, the pads & bushings of
the drive shaft, the handle thread and the profiles of the lift are periodically greased.
ATTENTION:
Do not apply oil or grease to the brake mechanism.
The brake discs have been pre-greased with a special heat and pressure resistant grea-
se. To avoid malfunction to the winch brake, no other products must be used except the
original provided by the company. It is not necessary to grease the brake discs.
