Fastening the rope
On the first rope clamp
On the second rope clamp
Identify using the photos above.
If necessary, remove the limit switch.
Loosen the screws.
Insert the end of the rope between the drum flange and the cable clamp.
Tighten the screws.
Check that the rope is securely clamped.
Reassemble the limit switch.
The rope should never form a loop.
Important: the direction of rotation of the drum depends on how the machine is connected.
Winding the rope on the drum:
Reminder
: the maximum capacity of these winches varies on each model (see section §6.3).
Very important
: The safety regulations require that 3 whorls of rope always stay on the drum. To comply with the
legislation, the rope diameter must not exceed 7 mm for the TRBoxter INOX 250/500 or 12 mm for TRBoxter INOX
750/990. If the rope and the hook used were not supplied with the machine by the manufacturer, check that they
guarantee a level of safety corresponding to coefficient 5.
Winding the rope on the drum:
to do this, tension the rope and wind it with joined strands onto the drum. Check the
direction of rope winding according to the three-phase connection.
Start to wind the rope forming a spiral to the right.
The first layer must be wound in a compact manner and under tension. Take a mallet or a block of wood and knock the
turns against one another; not too hard to prevent the strands from overlapping one another, but tightly enough to
prevent the rope from moving on the drum. If the first layer is wound too loose, the next layer will form a space in the
first layer that will result in an open area. If the first layer is too tight, the subsequent layers will not have enough
space between turns.
In any case, the first layer and all the other layers must be wound onto the drum with enough pre-tension (5-10 % of
the MWL of the rope). If the rope is wound without any tension, it will suffer from crushing and premature flattening
caused by the loaded upper layers.
