CAUTION: Make sure the motor is not running before placing tool on the nut to adjust it.
Do not touch any moving components.
m
CAUTION: The slip-clutch generates heat when slipping. ITEMS 3 & 4 absorb this heat.
When these items become too hot, clutch adjustment may be difficult due to unstable
behavior of friction surfaces. If this happens, allow brake & clutch assembly to cool before
trying to re-adjust slip-clutch.
m
CAUTION: Decreasing torque too much when adjusting slip-clutch will allow a suspended
load to free-fall when trying to lift. If this occurs, release the motion button and the brake
will engage to stop and hold the load.
7.3.2
Slip Clutch Adjustment after Installation
1. Hook a load of at least 110 percent but not more than 125 percent of nameplate capacity.
2. Remove plastic cap from inspection hole in brake cover.
3. Raise load at slow speed and fast speed to test slip clutch operation.
4. Insert a socket (13mm) through inspection hole, and slide it over the slip clutch adjusting nut (item 8 -
Figure 11).
5. Turn nut in required direction:
Turn nut
clockwise to increase
the torque.
Turn nut
counterclockwise to decrease
the torque.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until load can be barely lifted in fast speed.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVERHEAT
.
If overheated, clutch may not adjust due to instability of friction surfaces.
7. Once adjustment is completed, install plastic cap.
8. Check function of clutch at 100 percent of nameplate-capacity while in fast speed.
NOTICE:
The slip clutch / Torque Limiter is a safety device to prevent overloading of the hoist.
This device is not intended for use as means to measure the weight of load being lifted
.
