Hooks, shackles and eyes or other optional carrying means
belonging to the device may only be used in combination with
this device.
X-Model series:
The rope infeed is on the motor side (observe the arrow on the
casing!). This corresponds to the load side of the hoist. The rope
outfeed is on the unloaded side of the hoist. The unloaded side
of the hoist may be loaded with a maximum of 100 kg (e.g. via
the rope pre-tensioning).
T-Model series:
The hoist can be pulled in both directions. Depending on the
running direction, the rope infeed is either on the motor side or
on the opposite side.
When pulling the rope pretension must not exceed 400 kg (see
Fig. 8 g/h).
The hoists may only be used with an original tirak
TM
wire rope
with the specified wire rope diameter.
If the load cannot be guided by on-site means then a low-twist
wire rope with a swivel hook or a rope swivel must be used.
Maintenance and repair work must only be undertaken by author-
ised service personnel, see '
15.1 Authorized maintenance per-
sonnel' on page 15.
Greifzug Hebezeugbau GmbH declares that the machine de-
scribed in this instruction manual complies with technological
safety standards that were applicable to the equipment in the
European Union when it was launched on the market by the
manufacturer.
Commissioning the machine is prohibited until the machine in
which this is installed complies as a whole with the regulations of
the 2006/42/EC Directive, the corresponding national legislation
for implementing the regulations in accordance with national law
and the corresponding declaration of conformity has been issued.
The operator or system manufacturer must perform a risk evalua-
tion in accordance with Appendix I of the guideline 2006/42/EC
for machines for raising loads. EN 14492-1 must also be taken
into account when inspecting the equipment.
Any use other than that described here will be considered to be
unauthorised. Greifzug Hebezeugbau GmbH does not accept
any liability for damages resulting from unauthorised use. The
operator must assume sole responsibility in this case. Abiding by
all of the instructions given in this instruction manual, in particular
the installation and maintenance regulations, are also considered
part of authorised use.

Installation example
See Fig. 8.
Structural requirements
Structural equipment for anchoring the hoist must possess a load
bearing capacity at least four times that of the hoist.
Please note that the load on the deflection roller, rigging and the
anchoring point increases depending on the arrangement of the
hoisting gear, deflection roller and load! See '
4.9 Increasing the
load bearing capacity' on page 8.
The path of the hoist for lifting must be limited by one or multiple
limit switches, so that the upward and / or downward movement
is stopped. The operator or the system manufacturer must de-
termine the design and the fitting position of the limit switches
when taking their risk assessment into account.
The operator or system manufacturer must install a limit switch
and, if necessary, an emergency limit switch and a floor limit
switch and connect them to the hoist. The limit switch must have
a positive opening. The clearance to the wire rope anchoring or
protruding components must be at least 1.5 m.
The wire rope must be long enough that the connection of the
rope end or the end of the rope cannot be called into the hoist
housing or the deflection roller.
If the load cannot be guided by on-site means then a low-twist
wire rope with a swivel hook or a rope swivel must be used.
It must be possible to position the operating equipment in such a
way that safe operation is always possible.
Rope, hoist and rigging must not be soiled by heavily soiling
building materials such as concrete, epoxy resin or other adhe-
sive materials. The components must be protected against soil-
ing.
