Minifor™ Rigged; Minifor™ Secured Onto Avehicle Ball Hitch Using The Mta (Fig. 20) - Tractel Minifor TR125 SY Installations-, Gebrauchs- Und Wartungsanleitung

Radio remote-controlled Minifor™ hoists do not come
with control pendants connected by a control cable
(Optional, on request).
11. MINIFOR™ RIGGED
11.1. Description
The minifor MPM™ rigging kit can be mounted on the
Minifor™ TR125SY model.
This arrangement doubles the capacity (WLL) of the
unit. However, the speed is halved.
The Minifor™ should not be rigged other than using the
Minifor™ MPM rigging kit. No additional system should
EN
be added.
The rigging kit for Minifor™ includes (Fig. 19):
• An attachment of the suspension cable (item 1);
• A rigging pulley with latch hook as standard (item 3)
(or self-locking hook as option);
• An assembly manual code 234015.
This kit should only be used for rigging a Minifor™.
11.2. Assembly
Users should note that when rigging, the necessary
rope length is at least twice the lift height plus 2 m with
a meter of obvious slack.
The end-of-run sliding stop on the rigging pulley is
designed to replace the top end-of-run that comes with
the rope. However, if you want to limit the upward run,
you can add a clamp collar on the rope, placed between
the pulley and the upper end-of-run stop.
IMPORTANT: When rigging, double the maximum
load in use to be considered for safety calculation.
NOTE: Take care to mount the rigging pulley so that
the sliding end-of-run is located on the rope between
the pulley and the rope entry of the unit. See rigging kit
manual. Figure 18 shows the configuration of the rigged
Minifor™.
NOTE: Given the risk of tangling the strands of the lifting
rope, we recommended that the Minifor™ should only
be used for direct vertical lifting (Fig. 4) when rigged.
11.3. Manoeuvre
When operating with the rigging system, the operator
will ensure specifically that the load is cannot spin,
to prevent tangling of the three strands of the rope
(two loaded strands + slack). Immediately stop the
movement of the load if the slack tangles with the other
strands and untangle it before resuming movement.

12. MINIFOR™ SECURED ONTO A
VEHICLE BALL HITCH USING THE
MTA (FIG. 20)
12.1. Description
The MTA kit secures the Minifor™ TR125SY onto a
vehicle's a ball hitch. This arrangement avoids installing
a high winch. The MTA is provided with a device for
angular adjustment of Minifor™ according to the height
position of the return pulley and of the vehicle position.
The MTA kit includes (Fig. 21):
• An MTA device,
• An assembly manual code 144555
This kit should only be used with the Minifor™ TR125SY.
12.2. Assembly
IMPORTANT: Observe the assembly instructions
mentioned in the assembly manual code 144555.
Figure 20 shows the configuration of the rigged
Minifor™ (item 1) used with the MTA (item 2):
Item 3: return pulley (not supplied with the MTA kit),
Item 4: clamp for activating the upper end-of-run switch
when it comes to a stop with the upper limit end-
of-run stop Item 5,
Item 5: upper end-of-run stop of the device,
Item 6: lower end-of-travel stop,
Item 7: clamp enabling activation of the lower end-of-
travel stop.
IMPORTANT: the length of the hoisting rope is
determined by the height of lifting of the load and the
distance between the return pulley and the parking
position of the vehicle.
12.3. Manoeuvre
The operation is identical to that used in the Minifor™
used vertically.
NOTE: avoid tangling the slack strand on the ground
while the load is rising. During the opposite movement,
it may form a knot causing blocking of the apparatus.
If this happens, stop movement immediately.
IMPORTANT: Before each use, the vehicle must be
completely immobilised.
