DANGER !
Mechanical adjustments may only be performed by authorised specialists.
CAUTION !
Operating staff must carefully read the operating instructions of the electric
chain hoists before its initial operation and carry out all checks. Only when
safe operation has been established may the device be put into operation.
Unauthorised persons may not operate the device or carry out work with it.
The safety directions for handling with loads should be followed (see chapter 0.3) when
transporting and assembling the electric chain hoist.
Electric chain hoists must be assembled by qualified staff, always bearing in mind the
accident prevention directions in chapter 0.2. Before assembly the electric chain hoist
must be stored in an enclosed room or covered area.
Should the electric chain hoist be destined for operation outdoors, then it is
recommended that a protection cover is erected to shield it from the effects of the
weather.
Wherever possible, the electric chain hoist should be transported in its original
packaging. The goods delivered should be checked for completeness and the
packaging disposed of in an environmentally sound manner. It is recommended that the
electric chain hoist is assembled and connected on-site by our qualified customer
service personnel.
DANGER !
Electrotechnical adjustments may only be performed by authorised
specialists.
The mains connection cable, the mains connection fuse and the main switch for
connecting the electric chain hoist to the mains power supply must be installed
beforehand by the customer.
A 4-wire cable with a PE protective conductor is needed to provide the power supply for
three-phase models. A 3-wire cable with a protective conductor is adequate for single-
phase models. The length and cross-section must be appropriate for the power
consumption of the electric chain hoist.
Before connecting the electric chain hoist, check whether the operating voltage and
frequency that are specified on the name plate correspond to the available power
supply
Remove cover on electrical side
Insert connecting cable with M25 x 1.5 screwed cable connection into hole at side
and connect to terminals L1, L2, L3 and PE in accordance with supplied circuit
diagram (see figure 2-1)
Insert control cable with M20 x 1.5 screwed cable connection through hole in
underside of housing and connect to terminals 1, 2, 3, 4 and 10 (see figure 2-2)
