DISMANTLING THE HOIST
DISMANTLING THE LIFTING CABLE
At the end of the work, bring the trolley back to the bottom stop at the foot of the base ladder.
In the electric version, lock the remote control by pressing the red EMERGENCY STOP button on the
remote control and disconnect the power supply to the winch in order to prevent it from being switched on
accidentally when the lifting cable is removed.
In the petrol engine version, cut the motor by pressing the motor STOP button in order to prevent it from
being switched on accidentally when the lifting cable is removed.
It is strictly forbidden to use the electric or thermal winch during dismantling operations, except at the very
last moment to stow and wind the cable onto the drum.
Unlock and remove the attachment from the trolley.
Unlock the clip pins "B" and remove the cable hooking shaft "A" to release the lifting cable loop.
The person who detaches, handles and removes and re-winds the hoisting cable must wear protective
gloves throughout the dismantling operations of the lifting cable.
Pull the lifting cable and disengage it from the knee joint pulleys and head pulley from the top of the site,
taking the necessary precautions, i.e. be secured by a railing or safety harness equipped with a fall arrest
system and attached to the building.
To avoid trapping fingers, only the person responsible for removing the cable from the pulleys should act on
the lifting rope.
As a reminder, it is forbidden to climb on the ladder of the hoist, even during the lifting cable disassembly
phase.
Then lower the lifting cable using a small cord attached to the loop.
Detach the cord from the loop, then reconnect the power supply and unlock the emergency stop by turning
the red button on the remote control by a quarter turn in the electric version.
Then wind the entire lifting cable onto the winch drum by pressing the "UP" button (white) on the remote
control in the electric version. Perform this operation with two people, one handling the remote control in
the electric version or the control lever in the petrol version and the other winding the cable properly onto
the winch drum.
The person winding the lifting rope onto the winch drum must wear protective gloves throughout this
operation and ensure that the rope is always taut, that the turns are joined and that there is no disorder on
the drum.
In order to prevent the rope from slackening when handling and transporting the winch, it is advisable to
tighten the rope by tying it to the winch frame with a string.
Verify the general condition of the lifting cable. It must be replaced if it
shows tears or crushing.
It is strictly forbidden to repair a lifting cable using couplers or cable ties!
