Emergency lowering function, electric
If the GH3 fails, the electrical emergency lowering function is used to lower
the user safely. The emergency lowering function is operated by a constant
pull on the red strap that is used for the emergency stop.
When releasing the red strap, the emergency lowering function will be
replaced by the emergency stop.
Emergency lowering function, mechanical
If the electrical emergency lowering function in the GH3 fails, the emergency
lowering can be done mechanically. This must be done on the leader hoist
and follower hoist.
1. Remove the side covers.
Release the side covers from the top of
the hoist by means of a gentle push on
the xing points on each side. The covers
are tipped free of the hoist and can be
removed.
2. Then release the hoist’s motor by turning
the handle bearing the words
“EMERGENCY DOWN”. This handle is
located immediately behind the side cover
and must be turned clockwise.
