Periodic checks
Periodic checks are normally carried out yearly to detect and remedy any faults. Check
the winch and its fixings and the condition and fixing of the rope and hooks. See also
Page 7.
Repairs
Winches must not be modified or the lifting purpose etc. altered. Repairs must be
carried out by specialists. Replace damaged parts with original SVERO parts. Order
them through your dealer.
Replacing wire rope
When replacing the wire rope, be sure to choose
the right rope (diameter and construction) as
indicated in "Technical data". Insert the end of the
new rope in the hole in the drum and pull it
towards the integral clamp with Allen bolt, see Fig.
10. Wind it on without twisting and ensure that the
rope lies evenly and closely spaced, as shown on
Fig. 3.
