Charging Wispa Battery Hoists
When not in use it is
VERY
important to return Wispa Battery hoists to the end of the track where the
charging unit for the batteries is housed. To engage the hoist with the charger, simply push or traverse
the hoist to the end of the track. Correct engagement is signalled when the charging light glows green.
Once the hoist is engaged, charging is automatic. No further actions are required to charge the batteries.
The batteries cannot be overcharged. When the Hoist is on charge the lifting and lowering functions will
not operate, unless pre-set software is enabled - contact the sales office for further information.
Battery Low Indicator Light (Wispa Battery Hoists Only)
The battery low indicator light will glow red when the hoists batteries are in need of charging. This is unlikely
to happen unless the hoist is used for long periods of time (approximately 60 lifts) without charging, or the
hoist has not been properly ‘parked’ in its charger, to recharge the batteries. Should the light flash red,
batteries are critically low and the hoist should be returned to the charging dock immediately.
Warning Buzzer (Wispa Battery Hoists Only)
If the battery low warning buzzer sounds, then the batteries need recharging before use.
Overload Reset
This device safeguards the hoist against overload, the connection between the power supply and the
control unit is deliberately broken to prevent the safe working load of the unit being exceeded. Should
the hoist not respond to the handset controls and the the buzzer sounds three times, the hoist has been
overloaded. The reset procedure on page 5 will need to be performed to resume normal hoist function.
If the hoist fails to respond contact Chiltern Invadex or your supplier.
