1.) Unscrew the locking nuts (item 9) and hex. nuts (item 2)
from the crossbars (item 1) and remove both side plates
2.) Measure the flange width of the beam (see Fig. 1 1 -
3.) Adjust measurement "B" between the shoulders of the
round nuts (item 5) on the threaded crossbars (item 1).
Ensure that the 4 bores in the round nuts face towards the
outside. Adjust the measurement "B" to equal measure-
ment "b" plus 4 mm. Measurement "A" must be 2 mm on
either side and the suspension traverse (item 4) must be
centred between the round nuts.
4.) Replace one side plate (item 6):
Replace one side plate ensuring that the roll pins (item 8)
engage into one of the bores in the round nuts. To achieve
this it may be necessary to rotate the round nuts slightly .
5.) Replace the washers (item 3) and tighten the hex. nuts
(item 2). Screw on the locknuts (item 9) fingertight and
tighten a further 1/4 to 1/2 turn.
The locknuts must always be fitted.
6.) Loosely replace the second side plate (item 6) on the
crossbars (item 1). The washers (item 3), hex. nuts (item2)
and locknuts (item 9) can be fitted loosely .
7.) Raise the complete pre-assembled trolley to the carrying
8.) Engage the second side plate (item 6) ensuring that the
roll pins (item 8) engage into one of the bores in the round
nuts (item 5). To achieve this it may be necessary to rotate
9.) Tighten the hex. nuts (item 2) on the second side plate.
Tighten the locknuts (item 9) fingertight and then a further
The locknuts must always be fitted.
To fit the hand chain position the slot on the outer edge of
the hand chain wheel below the chain guide. Place any
one link of the endless hand chain vertically into the slot
and turn the hand chain wheel until the link has passed
the chain guides on both sides.
Do not twist the hand chain when fitting.
Geared trolleys are moved by pulling the hand chain.
Work at electrical installations may be carried out by
electrical experts only. The local regulations have to be
strictly observed, in Germany DIN 7100 / VDE 0100 and
• Before beginning work on electrical components the
mains current switch must be switched OFF and secured
against unintentionally being switched back on.
• Before connecting the chain hoist ensure that the
electrical data on the nameplate match the local supply
• The mains supply cable must be an insulated cable with
4 flexible leads. The ground (earth) lead must be longer
than the live leads. For wire cross-section and fusing see
• The length of the pendant control cable is determined by
working conditions. Attach the tension relief wire in a manner
that the pendant control cable hangs load-free.
• Wiring and terminal connecting diagrams are included
1.) The mains supply cable must be connected to the
electric chain hoist before it is connected to the mains
2.) On chain hoists with an electric trolley (CPE-VTE) the
three phases of the mains supply are to be connected to
the terminal strip within the terminal box on the trolley. The
ground/earth wire is to be connected to the special ground/
earth connection within the terminal box of the chain hoist.
3.) On chain hoists without electric trolley the mains supply
and the ground/earth wire are to be connected to the
terminal strip within the terminal box of the chain hoist.
4.) After removing the terminal box cover, connect the wiring
as shown on the wiring diagram label inside the terminal
On hoists with direct control the ground/earth
wire should always be connected according to the wiring
diagram. Should the mains supply source not provide a
ground (earth) connection please consult the manufacturer.
5.) After replacing the terminal box cover, connect the other
end of the supply cable to the mains supply .
6.) Check the motor's direction of rotation.
The wiring diagram included has been drawn for a normal,
clockwise rotating installation.Should the user's mains
supply not fulfil these requirements, e.g. the hoist lowers
when lift is selected (or vice versa) switch the unit OFF
immediately and exchange two of the three phase
connections in the mains connection.
