Why won't the load hold on my AL-KO Winches?
If the load isn't holding with your AL-KO Winches, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check if the cable or band is wound correctly and fit it properly if it is not. Another possibility is that the brake is worn or faulty, in which case you should inspect the brake parts and replace any that are worn. Finally, the brake disc might be moist or oily; try cleaning or replacing the brake discs.
How to fix difficult lowering on AL-KO Winches?
If you're finding it difficult to lower loads, or even without a load, using your AL-KO Winches, the crank attachment thread might be fixed. Try greasing the crank attachment thread to resolve this.
What to do if the load pressure brake does not open on AL-KO 351?
If the load pressure brake on your AL-KO Winches isn't opening, it could be that the brake disc mechanism or brake discs are braced. Ensure the winch is not under load, then try loosening the brake by gently hitting the crank in the lowering direction with the palm of your hand. You might need to block some gear wheels until the crank loosens. Also, grease the crank attachment thread.
How to fix a load that does not stop with AL-KO Winches?
If the load doesn't stop when using AL-KO Winches, there are a few potential solutions. First, make sure the rope is wound correctly. Second, inspect the brake parts for wear and replace any parts that are worn. Third, try cleaning or changing the brake pads.
Why won't the load pressure brake close on my AL-KO Winches?
If the load pressure brake on your AL-KO Winches doesn't close, it could be because the brake disc mechanism or brake discs are tight. To resolve this, detach any loads, then loosen the brake by gently hitting the crank handle in the "lower" direction with the palm of your hand (when doing this, block off any gears until the crank handle is free, then grease the crank handle).
