ENG ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
it operate slowly. This will reduce performance and
may cause the motor to overheat.
EXTENSION CORD.
If the working area is at some distance from the
power supply, use an extension cord of enough dia-
meter and quality.
EARTH CONNECTION.
The hoist must be connected to earth while being
used to protect the operator from possible electrical
shocks.
OPERATION.
Before starting the work, make sure that the steel
cable is correctly winded around the reel (2).
CAUTION.
Check that the hoist is levelled for proper cable win-
ding. If the hoist is not levelled, the cable will get
wrapped and damaged. Drive the switch of the con-
trol (3). In case the hoist cannot hoist a load, do not
keep pressing the switch, this means that the load
exceeds the hoist maximum capacity. Observe the
maximum load indicated in the information panel of
the hoist, not on the hook (4).
WARNING.
If the hoist is subjected to an excessive effort, it has
a thermal protection system that stops the engine
to prevent burning. In this case you should allow to
cool 10 to 20 minutes before using it again. If the
hoist stops during the lowering of a load, it is normal
that the load goes down a few centimeters more
because of inertia. Leave at least three turns of ca-
ble around the reel, so that the cable connection is
not under stress (5). If the steel cable is worn out,
it must be replaced only with a cable of same fea-
tures.
SIMPLE CABLE SYSTEM.
In this modality of use the weight of the load rests
on a single cable. The load enlists directly to the ca-
ble of the hoist and it rises with normality (6). Using
this way of use, the hoist has capacity to at the most
elevate half of its rated load. In this type of use, it is
available the total of the length of the cable of the
coil to elevate as limit half of the fully factored load
of the hoist.
FORWARD SYSTEM.
The way of which the hoist can elevate the total of its
rated load is using the forward system. In this moda-
lity of use the weight of the load rests on two cables.
For it, it removes sufficient cable from the coil and fi-
xes the hook to the orifice located in the frontal part of
the housing of the hoist (7). This way, the load to the
high being has two support points, by a side the own
cable coil and on the other hand the hook fixed on
the housing. Place on the cable the provided pulley
(8). This pulley will be the hold point of the load in the
forward system. Remember that to elevate the total
of rated load of the hoist the forward system has to
be used necessarily. In this type of use, it is available
half of the length of the cable of the coil to elevate as
limit the total of the fully factored load of the hoist.
FIXATION TO A SUPPORT.
The hoist has four orifices in the upper part of
the housing (9). You can use these four orifices
like anchorage points if it is going to fix the hoist
to a metallic plate or something similar using the
screws provided for it. In the same way, two clips
are provided to fix them to the housing of the hoist
and by the way fix it safely to a suitable support
(10). It is extremely important verifying that all the
screws are perfectly tightened and that the fixation
is completely safe.
UPLOAD LIMIT DEVICE.
The hoist is designed to be used only in vertical
elevation and never to elevate people or animals.
It is fitted with a end race lever which function is to
make stop the motor of the hoist once the load has
been elevated to its maximum height (11). Never
modify or retire this lever for safety.
DOWNLOAD LIMIT DEVICE.
The hoist is equipped with a safety device that will
avoid an excessive unrolling of the cable in the
download process. When two cable turns left in the
reel a limit switch will be activated and stop the mo-
tor to avoid risk of accidents.
MAINTENANCE.
The hoist has been designed for a long working
life with minimum maintenance. Optimum use de-
pends on correct care of the hoist and regular clea-
ning. To prevent accidents, always unplug the hoist
from the power source before cleaning or perfor-
ming any maintenance. The hoist may be cleaned
effectively using compressed air after each use. If
compressed air is not available, use a brush to re-
move dust from the hoist. Motor ventilation vents
and switch levers must be dept clean and free of
foreign matter. Do not attempt to clean by inserting
pointed objects through openings. Cetain cleaning
agents and solvents damage plastic parts, among
