Adjustment of the overload switch
If the unit is equipped with an overload device it is mounted at the lower right part of the
sidewall. The platform with full load presses the spring washers and if the real load exceeds
the rated load by around 25% then the switch is activates and departure from the landing
stop position is blocked by the overload switch.
In case the switch needs adjustment on site it is necessary to load the platform with the
rated load +25% and then adjust the switch with the adjustment screw so that it just
activates under this load condition. See below illustration for explanation:
