Care, Maintenance and Repair

8.4  Lowering of a load

When lowering a load, note that the winch may still run a 
few centimetres after stopping, so stop in good time. 

Step 1: Lower the load smoothly and evenly.

Step 2: Place the load on a firm, safe surface.

Step 3: After lowering the load, open the safety catch on 

the load hook and lower the load.

8.5 Operation with pulley

Fig. 7: Operation with pulley (left)

Step 1: Unscrew the cover from the load hook with pulley 

and place the steel cable on the pulley. Screw 
the cover back on. Check that the cable runs se-
curely on the pulley and that the screws are tight.

Step 2: Connect the load hook on the steel cable into the 

suspension device on the housing (Fig. 7 bottom 
left).

Care, Maintenance and Repair

9.1 Care by cleaning

The electrical cable winch must always be kept in a 
clean condition.

All plastic parts and painted surfaces should be cleaned 
with a soft, damp cloth and some neutral cleaner. 

Remove excess grease or oil with a dry, lint-free cloth.

9.2 Maintenance and repair 

If the electrical cable winch is not functioning properly, 
contact a specialised dealer or our customer service. 
Please find the contact data on chapter 1.2 Customer 
service.

Immediately reassemble all protective and safety equip-
ment after completing the repair and maintenance of the 
device. 

NOTE!

The rope must not be completely unwound! At least 5 
windings must remain on the drum. If the red marking 
becomes visible, the winch must be stopped immedi-
ately.

CAUTION!

Risk of crushing!

When the load is lowered, the upper and lower limbs 
may be crushed. 

-  Do not hold the upper and lower limbs between the 

load and the ground when putting down the load. 

ATTENTION!

The electrical cable winch must be disconnected 
from the power supply system before starting any 
maintenance, servicing or repair work!

Use protective gloves!

NOTE!

Never use strong cleaning agents to clean the device. 
Such cleaning agents might damage or destroy the 
device.

NOTE!

Oil, grease and cleaning agents are hazardous to the 
environment and must not be added to waste water or 
normal household waste. Dispose of these agents in 
an environmentally friendly manner. The cloths 
soaked in oil, grease or cleaning agents are easily 
combustible. Collect the rags or the cleaning wool in a 
suitable, closed container and dispose of them in an 
environmentally friendly manner - do not dispose of 
them with your household waste! 

ATTENTION!

-  Maintenance and repair works must only be per-

formed by specialists.

-  Use only original spare parts in case of a repair.
