Inserting a new
rope
The service
life of a rope can be significantly affected by the insertion pro-
cedure. Errors can significantly reduce the service life, therefore:
– Make sure the rope is not twisted when it is inserted.
– Avoid soiling and damage when fitting.
– Wind the rope up in the same direction in which the rope is reeled on to
the reel.
– Tense the rope slightly while winding it up.
• Place the reel stand (1) with the new rope in
front of the main boom head.
The distance (X) between the reel st
and (1)
and the head sheav
e (2) must be at least
30 m so that the rope runs over the head
sheave as straight as possible.
Ensure that the rope is being rolled on to the
drum with the right slewing direction.
• Guide the rope over the head sheave (2) and
under the bracket (3) up to the hoist drum.
