Why CM Lifting Systems motor overheats?
- M
  michele20Aug 16, 2025
  Several factors can cause a CM Lifting Systems motor to overheat: * An excessive load on the hoist. Reduce the load to the capacity limit. * Low voltage. Correct the low voltage condition. * Extreme external heat. Limit the frequency of hoist operation or provide ventilation/shielding. * Frequent starting or reversing. Avoid excessive inching, jogging, or reversing. * Phase failure or unbalanced current in the phases (three-phase units only). * Brake dragging. Check the brake adjustment. * Motor cut-out device not opening start winding circuit (single-phase units only).

Why CM Valustar 2401 hook moves in the wrong direction?

  Manuel MartinAug 20, 2025
  If the hook on your CM Lifting Systems moves in the wrong direction, the issue could be: * Reversed wiring connections at the control station. Use the wiring diagram to check and correct the connections. * Failure of the motor cut-out switch to effect dynamic braking at time of reversal (single-phase units only). Check the connections to the switch and replace any damaged switches or faulty capacitors. * Phase reversal (three-phase units only).

What to do if CM Lifting Systems hook lowers but will not raise?

  If your CM Lifting Systems hook lowers but refuses to raise, consider the following potential causes: * The hoist might be experiencing an excessive load. Reduce the load to the capacity limit. * There could be an open hoisting circuit, caused by an open or shorted winding in the reversing contactor coil, a loose connection, or faulty control station contacts. Check electrical continuity and repair or replace any defective part. * For single-phase units, the motor cut-out device might not be operating correctly. Check the switch connections, actuating bar, and contact for any sticking or damage. Also, inspect the centrifugal mechanism for loose or damaged components and replace any defective parts. * Phase failure (three-phase units only).

- K
  Kevin YangSep 5, 2025
  If the hook on your CM Lifting Systems raises but will not lower, the issue might be: * An open lowering circuit, potentially caused by an open or shorted winding in the reversing contactor coil, loose connections, or control station contacts not making. Check electrical continuity and repair or replace the defective part. * Motor cut-out switch not operating (single-phase units only).
