Prepare a support member (metal hanger) with a
sufficient strength. Attach the top hook of the
balancer directly to the support member (metal
hanger).
CAUTION
Do not fix the top hook. Using the
product with the top hook fixed
may cause damage or a fall.
NOTICE
Use a support member (metal hanger) with no opening as
shown in the figure on the right, so that the balancer does not
come off while in motion.
Attach the support member such that the balancer does not
collide with its surroundings.
When installing multiple balancers alongside, place them at different
heights so that they do not collide with each other.
4
Check that the top hook latch is closed.
5
Ensure that the balancer moves freely.
6
Prepare an auxiliary wire rope or chain that has a
strength 10 times greater than the maximum
capacity of the balancer.
7
As shown in the figure below, attach an end of the
auxiliary wire rope or chain to a support member
(metal hanger) different from the support member
(metal hanger) to which the top hook has been
attached. Attach the other end of the auxiliary wire
rope or chain to the main equipment of the
balancer.
CAUTION
Loosen the auxiliary wire rope or chain
to allow the balancer to move freely.
The slack must be such that the
balancer stops within 100 mm if the top
hook or the support member (metal
hanger) for the balancer are damaged
and the balancer falls.
