Note: This device is purely mechanical and will slowly lower
the jib provided a weight of at least 50 kg is attached to the
spreader bar.
Low battery indicators
If the hoist is used for long periods without charging the LED on the
handset will illuminate, accompanied by an audible bleep each time the
“UP” button is pressed. When this occurs, suspend lifting operations and
place the battery pack on charge immediately.
There is also a battery state
indicator LCD on the front of the control box. This gives the actual
battery capacity and indicates the level of charge in the battery.
Emergency Stop button
To operate the emergency stop switch, press the red button on the control
box. This will isolate all the electrical systems and bring the hoist to a
halt. To reactivate; twist the red button clockwise and allow the button to
return to the out or on position.
Charging
The Tx 150 has a charger incorporated into the control box. This allows
the battery to be charged without the need to remove it from the hoist.
The battery can still be removed for charging away from the hoist if
required, using the remote charger.
WARNING

hydrotherapy or swimming pool areas
