How the hoisting function works
The electric motor rotates the axle, which makes the hoisting gear helical steps turn. The
gear transfers the motor power to the hoisting chain which then moves according to the
selected direction (up/down).
The assembly includes a slipping clutch that allows the lifting of loads corresponding
to110% of nominal SWL (safe working load), and prevents the lifting of loads that
exceed160% of the SWL. An overload slips the clutch, allowing the motor to continue
running while preventing the gearbox helical steps(and hoisting chain)from moving.
NOTICE
Only use the emergency stop button to stop movement in the event
of malfunction or other emergency situation. Using the emergency
stop button can cause the load to swing unexpectedly.
