8. Installation

Fitting the cable hoist to the attachment
m DANGER!
Risk of injury and death!
Insufficient attachment of the cable hoist to a beam,
pipe, etc. can cause the cable hoist and load to fall,
causing serious injury and death.
• Make sure that the attachment to which you are at-
taching the cable hoist, e.g. beam, pipe, etc., can
withstand the load to be lifted.
• Only use the fastening screws included in the
scope of delivery for mounting the retaining brack-
ets of the cable hoist.
m WARNING!
Risk of injury!
During installation of the cable hoist on a pipe or
beam, the hoist may fall and cause serious injury.
• Never install the cable hoist alone, but let a second
person help you.
• Ensure secure and firm footing during installation.
• Use a working platform for installation.
The cable hoist can be mounted on round pipes,
square pipes and U-beams using the retaining brack-
ets supplied.
The size of the pipe or beam must be determined
taking into account the weight to be lifted and the po-
sition of the cable hoist.
If you have no experience with this, contact a spe-
cialist who will help you install the cable hoist.
• Place the retaining brackets (12) over the pipe or
bracket.
• Tighten the retaining brackets with the washers (9),
the spring washers (10) and the fastening screws
(11) to the cable hoist (see Fig. 3).
• Tighten the screws with a spanner.

9. Operation

Firstly, remove the adhesive tape on the cable
drum
• Before each use of the cable hoist, check that the
emergency stop switch (5) is locked.
• If the emergency stop switch is locked, turn it
clockwise to unlock it.
• To switch off the cable hoist in an emergency,
press the emergency stop switch.

With the toggle switch of the control unit, you can de-
termine the running direction of the cable drum. The
running direction is indicated by arrows next to the
toggle switch.
• To lift the load, push the toggle switch (6) to the
„Lift" position in the upward direction of the arrow.
• To lower the load, push the toggle switch to the
„Lower" position in the direction of the arrow.
Using the emergency stop switch
m WARNING!
An unsecured cable hoist may cause serious injury if
it is accessed by unauthorised persons.
• Make sure that the emergency stop switch is
locked if unauthorised persons have access to the
cable hoist or if you do not use the cable hoist for
a longer period.
The emergency stop switch allows the cable hoist
to be switched off immediately in an emergency.
The emergency stop switch engages as soon as it
is pressed and switches the cable hoist off.
To ensure safe and smooth operation of the cable
hoist, the safety devices and the device components
must be checked before each use of the cable hoist.

9.1 Checking the safety switches

Checking the safety switches
The safety switches of the cable hoist ensure that the
motor of the cable hoist stops as soon as the cable
drum is fully wound or almost completely unwound.
This safety device prevents damage to the cable
hoist and possible breaking free of the load.
Checking the lower limit safety switch
Activation of the lower release bracket (20) ensures that
the motor is stopped when the steel cable is unwound
and at least two windings remain on the cable drum.
The lower release bracket triggers the safety switch
for the lower limit (25).
The downward movement of the cable hoist is
stopped to prevent complete unwinding of the cable
drum.
• Let the winch extend downwards without load until
the safety switch for the lower limit (25) is activated
and the motor stops.
The winch must still have at least two windings on the
drum (16).
The safety switch also functions when the steel cable
is not tensioned.
Checking the upper limit safety switch
Activation of the upper release bracket (22) ensures
that the motor is stopped when the cable drum is fully
wound up. When the switch-off weight reaches the
upper release bracket, it triggers the safety switch for
the upper limit (26). The upward movement of the ca-
ble hoist is stopped to prevent the motor from being
blocked and overheating.
