The reducer is lubricated using RENOLIT CXI 2 (FUCHS) grease.
Very important:
In the event of a change in the type of grease, contact our after-sales service.
When the winch has done 50 hours,
it should preferably be serviced by the seller.
When the winch has done 100 hours,
it
must be
serviced by the seller.
Winches
Respect the following instructions, in particular if your winch is used in a large number of
different locations or in a particularly dirty and damp environment:
Remove most of the dirt from the winch.
Always store the winch in a dry place
Ropes
The ropes must be cleaned and greased regularly using a special grease which penetrates
to the rope core.
Only use appropriate and harmless cleaning products for all the components of the rope,
including the core.
If lubrication is impossible for reasons linked to use, the service life of the rope will be
reduced considerably and increased monitoring of the rope will therefore be necessary.
The ropes must be checked visually every day.
Hooks
Check the hook and its safety latch
If the rope and hook are not supplied by the manufacturer, check that the parts used
guarantee a level of safety corresponding to table §4.4.
Check the fastening points of the reeving on a regular basis.
Servicing and maintenance operations on the winch and rope must be carried
out without any load on the winch.
Brake
The brake is located at the end of the motor.
. Operating principle:
When the motor is started, the internal magnetic field opens the brake by lifting the
conical plate from the friction surface at the bottom of the motor.
When the motor is stopped, the magnetic field disappears. The central spring closes the
brake again by bringing the conical panel back into contact with the motor's rear flange.
. Adjusting the braking torque (only for MOTORBOX 300 and 500 kg)
The braking torque is not adjustable on the MOTORBOX 150 kg.
Remove the cap
on the fan cover.
Gradually turn the self-locking nut
:
. clockwise to reduce the braking torque
. anti-clockwise to increase the torque
. Adjusting the air gap (only for MOTORBOX 300 and 500 kg)
The air gap is not adjustable on the MOTORBOX 150 kg.
The air gap
must be adjusted in the event of excessive wear of the friction lining (min.
0.6 mm/max. 0.8 mm).
Remove the cover
and the fan
.
Loosen the three screws by a few turns
.
Turn the ring nut
anti-clockwise (30°≈ 0.12 mm) to reduce the air gap
.
Tighten the three screws
.
Reposition the fan and its cover.
