Description of function
The scaffolding lifts
GEDA MINI 60 S
and
GEDA MAXI 120 S/150 S
have two levels of speed, whereas the slow level is provided mainly for
commencing the lifting or sinking movement without jolts. For the most
part the equipment should be operated in the fast level. It is also possi-
ble to stop more smoothly using the first speed level. The control switch
accordingly has two pressure points.
Control is carried out using the manual control, from outside the hazard
area. The length of the line for the manual control is 10 m [33 ft].
If the pivot arm hoist should be operated from above, then it is possible
by plugging in manual controls with long cables of 30 m [98 ft] or 50 m
[164 ft] (accessories).
WARNING
Risk of injury
It must be ensured that the hanging load can always be observed from
the operating position.
•
In the event of exceeding the load capacity and the rope weight mov-
ing against the pivot arm, the winch lifts itself and switches off the
UP
movement.
Subsequently, it is possible to move in the
DOWN
direction.
•
In the event of “Slack rope”, the flexible drum guard switches off the
control in both directions.
If the upward travel was automatically switched off because of an ac-
cumulation of slack in the cable, then the upward travel is only re-
leased after the cable was manually tightened.
•
The safety devices for the loading and unloading points are also in-
cluded in the assembly of the hoist (refer to Chapter 5.4).
The scaffolding lifts are especially designed for 1½
″ pipe scaffolding. If
you should use scaffolding with other dimensions, please contact your
dealer or the manufacturer, who can offer you an adapter or special de-
sign.
