INSTALLATION OF THE LIFTING CABLE
The installation of the lifting cable requires the complete installation of the hoist and the electrical
connections.
Unwind the drum lifting cable, a length equivalent to twice the maximum travel of the trolley from the bottom
to the top end of the ladder, by pressing the "DOWN" button (black) on the remote control and pulling on
the loop at the end of the cable.
When the lifting rope is not tense, the cable slack safety device prevents unwinding. To disable this lower
slack cable safety device, stand in front of the winch and push the lower safety roller towards the inside of
the winch.
Perform this operation with two people, one handling the remote control and disabling the lower cable slack
safety device and one unwinding the cable, taking care not to leave the cable drum disordered.
The other way to override this safety device is simply to pull the lifting cable upwards strongly to create
tension.
During this action of unwinding the cable, be very careful not to press the "UP" button accidentally, because
the cable would then be wound up on the drum and could also wind your hand (the one which holds the
end of the cable) towards the interior of the drum and cause serious injuries.
In all cases, the person who unwinds, handles and winds the hoisting cable must wear protective gloves
throughout the installation operations.
As a reminder, it is forbidden to climb on the ladder of the hoist, even during the lifting cable assembly or
installation phase.
To lift the lifting cable up to the headboard at the upper end of the ladder via the knee joint, a rope attached
to the loop of the cable must be used and the work must be carried out from the top of the site, taking all
necessary precautions, i.e. being secured by a railing or safety harness equipped with a fall arrest system
and attached to the building.
Run the lifting cable between the trolley and the ladder rungs, then over the knee joint pulleys (right), then
over the headboard pulley (right to left), then back down over the knee joint pulleys (left) and under the
trolley.
It is not necessary to dismantle the pulleys to install the cable, but be very careful not to get your fingers
caught, cut or crushed!
Then attach the cable loop to the cable hooking shaft "A" of the trolley's parachute shaft and lock the cable
hooking shaft "A" with the clip pin "B".
Stretch the lifting cable and wind the excess cable onto the drum by pressing the "UP" button (white) on the
remote control.
Verify the proper winding of the lifting cable around the winch drum. In case of the lifting cable on the drum
being in disorder (incorrect winding, winding only on one side of the drum, cable strands which cross each
other, etc), unwind all the disorderly part of the cable and wind it again correctly.
We remind you that the lifting rope must always be perfectly wound with adjoining turns and without the
strands crossing. This is very important to avoid premature wear and tear of the cable.
The risk of the rope being in disorder on the drum can be eliminated by making sure that the rope is always
taut during assembly and operation as well as when handling the hoist.
Check the free passage and positioning of the cable on all pulleys and the attachment of the cable to the
trolley.
Verify the general condition of the lifting cable. It must be replaced if it
shows tears or crushing.
It is strictly forbidden to repair a lifting cable using couplers or cable ties!
Test that the parachute system is working properly by lifting and suddenly releasing the trolley.
Check the correct operation of the upper limit switch and the slack cable detector.
Perform an empty test, then a loaded test and an overloaded test
The hoist is now ready for use.
