ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT PROPERTIES
The control box has a security mechanism that stops the hoist after
completing around 8 straight cycles restlessly. Then, the hoist must rest
to avoid damaging the equipment. If this cycle is exceeded there is a
risk of a breakdown due to overheating.
When this cycle is reached it does not mean that the hoist is uncharged,
but that the user must wait to use the hoist again as it needs some time
to recover.
Never use the hoist during the charging of the batteries.
Lifetime of the batteries will depend on the discharging percentage
they suffer after each use. This is why you should not let them discharge
completely.
RECYCLING OF THE MATERIALS
This hoist is made of steel profiles with epoxy covering so to dispose of
it you should follow the local recycling ordinances.
In the case of the batteries, they contain lead (Pb) and they must be
deposited in the recycling bins intended for car batteries or taken to the
appropriate waste recycling manager.
