Chiltern Invadex Overhead Hoist
6
Charging Wispa Hoists
When not in use it is VERY important to return the hoist to the end of the
track where the charging unit for the batteries is housed. To engage the
hoist with the charger, traverse the hoist to the end of the track. Correct
engagement is signalled when the charging light glows red. Once the hoist is
engaged, charging is automatic. After a period of time the light will flash green
to indicate continuous charge ok. No further actions are required to charge the
batteries. The batteries cannot be overcharged.
Testing the Emergency Lowering Device
Please Note: The emergency lowering device uses a seperate battery to
allow the occupant of the hoist to be lowered in the event of an emergency.
The emergency lowering device should be tested and the battery replaced if
necessary at each service and after use. Frequent testing of this device in
non-emergency situations will quickly discharge the battery.
Battery Low Indicator
The battery low indicator will beep with the appropriate audio sequence and
flashing red light when the hoist’s batteries are in need of charging. This is
unlikely to happen unless the hoist is used for long periods of time without
charging, or the hoist has not been properly ‘parked’ in its charger, to recharge
the batteries.
Always return the hoist to the charging position.
A full list of audio warning signals are included in appendix A on page 8.
Maximum Load
The hoist has inbuilt safety features which prevent the maximum load being
exceeded.
Note:
The hoist will not lift beyond the maximum rated load.
Emergency Lowering
In the unlikely event of a power failure or hoist malfunction the user may be
lowered using the emergency lowering cord.
To operate, pull the cord fully and hold. To reset follow the instructions as for
emergency stop.
