3. INSTALLATION
Before installing the Bravo™ AC hoist make the
following checks:
1. Check that the hoist is in good condition.
2. Check that the correct hoist capacity is to be
used.
3. Check that the hooks and safety latches are in
good condition.
4. Check that the low limit stop is in place.
5. Check that the load chain is correctly fitted.
6. Check that the anchor point is sufficient to
take the intended load.
After successfully completing the preliminary
checks, install the Bravo™ AC hoist on its
anchoring point and perform the following
checks:
1. Check that the Bravo™ AC hoist is properly
suspended by its suspension hook (item 5,
fig. 1) and that the hook safety catch (item 6,
fig. 1) is properly closed (see figs 2 and 3).
2. Check that the load chain has not been
subjected to any torsion when setting up.
3. Without load, check that the “Up” and “Down”
functions operate correctly.
4. When using the hoist with a push suspension
trolley, without load, check that the trolley
moves freely. If using a geared suspension
trolley, without load, check the direction of
movement by pulling on the trolley hand
chain. The movement should be carried out on
a strictly horizontal plane.
After successfully completing these checks,
place the load in position and ensure:
1. The anchoring accessory of the load sits fully
in the hook and does not prevent the catch
from closing correctly (see figs. 2 and 3).
2. The load on the hoist is free to align itself with
the machine’s anchoring point.
4. OPERATION
4.1 OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The Bravo™ AC hoist is operated by means of
an actuating handle (item 7, fig. 1) which is
moved back and forth by the operator to lift or
lower a load, pull a load, or apply tensioning.
4.2 INSTALLING THE LIFTING HOOK ON
THE LOAD RIGGING POINT
If installation of the lifting hook requires
adjustment of the chain length, proceed as
follows:
1. Make sure that there is no load on the chain.
2. Set the movement selector lever (item 1,
fig. 4) to the neutral position “0”.
