8.6. Unwinding the cable
When the cable is fully unwound, it changes position and goes from the
O
position to the
X
position. It is very dangerous to use it in this position.
When the safety feature has stopped the movement, press the button
to return it to the
O
position.
8.7. Adjusting the limit switch
A special mechanism automatically stops the winding in the limit switch.
When the hook stopper touches the limit switch fork, the appliance
stops automatically.
If the limit switch fork is set too close to the winch, the fork or frame
may be damaged. For added security, turn the adjusting screw to space
the fork from the frame as shown. A distance (S) between the limit
switch fork and the cover is suggested below.

8.8. Braking
The braking system consists of a mechanical brake and an electronic brake. A ratio of 1.5% of cable
length to reel per minute is tolerated between the time the brake is activated and a complete stop.
The no-load winding speed is 1.5 to 1.8 times the nominal speed at nominal load.
8.9. Carbon brushes and drain
The service life of carbon brushes is 150 hours. They should be replaced when they reach 7.5mm in
length. Anything else could seriously damage the motor.
Remove the screw from the brush holder using a screwdriver and replace the carbon brush. Each time
the brush is replaced, the reducer must be lubricated with 100 cm3 of NLGI grade O oil.
Remove the drain bolt using a hex wrench and drain.
