capacity specified by the producer in technical data 
and on the type label of the cable reel. 

 

Burdens fixed in conflict with regulations that could fall 
down must not be lifted. 

 

Attach the load correctly. 

 

Lifted loads may only be lifted in a vertical position! 
Never pull and lift in an inclined position!

 

 

No persons – except for the operator – may stay under 
the load or in the dangerous area. Keep the minimum 
distance of 10 m from the lifted load.

 

 

All lifting work is only allowed when appropriate fixing 
elements (cables, rings, transport loops, etc.) are used 
and when in accordance with appropriate provisions 
and standards valid in the workplace. 

 

The reel metal cable must not be used for burden 
fixing. 

 

Putting the cable reel into operation is only allowed 
with a perfectly balanced cable. 

 

The cable reel cannot be left unattended with burdens 
lifted up. 

 

The load capacity of bearing structures must be 
checked before you start working with the cable reel. 

 

Check the cables for any wear-out before you start 
working with the cable reel; if there are any signs of 
wear-out the cables need to be replaced with new ones 
whose characteristics must correspond to the 
maximum allowed load capacity of the cable reel. 
Cables only need to be replaced with original spare 
cables. 

 

If you face any problems with working of the cable reel 
please contact your authorised dealer and refrain from 
any improvisation work. 

 

The cable reel engine drive is not fitted with an engine 
protection circuit-breaker. The engine therefore cannot 
be overloaded when there are any problems with 
lifting; in such a case check whether the lifted burden 
does not exceed the allowed load capacity of the cable 
reel and whether the system voltage has not dropped. 

 

To be able to intervene in time in case of any imminent 
danger, the operating staff must operate the cable reel 
from a suitable place to control the entire workplace. 

 

 Make sure the cable always reels up smoothly 

on the drum. pic. 5 

 

Make sure the cable reel cable is always twined 
around the drum at least thrice when working. 

 

The cable reel must not be changed anyhow; use only 
devices supplied with the cable reel for lifting. 

 

Use the lifting devices supplied with the cable reel only 
in a manner described in these Operating Instructions. 
Do not use these devices for any other appliance or 
purpose. 

 

Do not use an adhesive tape or any other tools for 
connecting the feeder cable to the extension cable. 

 

Make sure the electric characteristics of the network for 
cable reel connection correspond to the values 
specified on the engine type label. 

 

When an extension cable is used, make sure that the 
cable with the plug and socket correspond to the cable 
reel input. 

 

 The steel cable needs to be checked for any 

damage each time you put it into operation. It is 
strictly prohibited to use the cable reel when the 
cable is damaged (pic. 3) 

 

Lifting of persons inadmissible. 

 

Disorder in the workplace can cause accidents. 

 

Protect against electric shock. Prevent your body from 
coming into contact with earthed parts. 

 

Check whether your appliance is not damaged. 
Carefully inspect safety devices if not faulty or working 
improperly before further use of the appliance. Check 
whether functions of movable parts are all right, 
whether not clogged or damaged. All parts must be 
installed correctly so that all appliance conditions were 
guaranteed. Any damaged protective device and part 

must be professionally repaired or replaced in a 
customer service centre unless provided otherwise in 
the Operating Instructions. Damaged switches must be 
replaced in a customer service centre. Do not use 
devices whose switches cannot be on or off.

 

 

 The cable reel electric motor is protected with 

a thermal fuse. When the thermal fuse responses, 
the cable reel stops. The cable reel can be used 
again only after cooled down (app. 5 minutes). 

 

 Caution: The cable winch is not suitable for 

industrial or continuous operation and it may get 
switched off after several operating cycles. When 
used for industrial purposes, the appliance must be 
checked by an expert before being put into 
operation for the first time in accordance with the 
applicable operating safety regulations.

 

 

Have any damaged part immediately replaced.

 

 

Never take part in any repair (guarantee expiry and risk 
taking).

 

 

Do not unnecessarily expose the cable reel to climatic 
influences, solar radiation, dust or low temperatures.

 

 

 It is explicitly prohibited that persons stayed 

or walked under or in the immediate vicinity of the 
hung burdens. 

 

Your electric cable reel is fitted with a safety 
switch. Press the red safety switch in case of 
emergency!! If you want to release the safety 
switch blocking then turn it by quarter of a turn 
clockwise. 

 

 

Attention:

 

The cable reel has a limit switch that stops the engine if 
the drum is just twined around thrice. 

 

 

Inadmissible operation 

 

 

The following manners of use are prohibited! 

 

1. 

Lifting when cable is not hanging vertically. 

2. 

Trying to lift burdens connected to earth. 

3. 

Lifting of burdens hung outside of axis of gravity. 

4. 

Swinging with the hung burden when trying to get the 
burden outside of the reel axis. 

5. 

Burden lifting or sinking if there are any obstacles in the 
burden lifting or sinking path. 

6. 

Leaving the reel with a hung burden unattended. 

7. 

Operating the reel from a place where the entire burden 
is not in the visual field of the operating staff 

8. 

Lifting of people 

 
Lifting of burdens with a weight exceeding the 
maximum allowed load of the reel. 

 

Using the cable reel in any other than faultless 
condition. 

 

Continuous operation: Observe the cycles of 
operation specified by the producer to ensure 
proper engine work. 

 

Using the lifting limit switch for common lifting 
process switch-off. 

 

To eliminate abnormal cable unreeling from the 
drum, the hook and hook block must not touch the 
floor.
