Compact Winch Thank you for purchasing a Winch. This manual covers operation and maintenance of the winch. All information in this publication is based on the latest production information available at the time of printing. General Safety Precautions The winch has been designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to the instructions. Please read and understand this manual before installation and operation of the winch.
I . Installation Precaution General Safety Precaution ！ DANGER The following environmental conditions may result in the possible causes of hoist trouble.
I I . Handing Precautions ＊ To prevent the risk of electric shock, the power plug must be plugged into a matching outlet and grounded in good condition. ＊ Never try to lift a load higher than the rated cap. ＊ Never hitch a ride on the hook, sling or load being moving. ＊ Winches are not to be used for lifting or lowering people. ＊ Don’t work, walk or stand under an operating winch. ＊ Always remain in control. Never neglect the winch while actually hosting a load.
● It is forbidden to lift loads above the rated capacity of the winch ● Do connect the power lead on the main power source directly and fasten them ● Ban on transporting persons ● Don’t ignore fault accessories ● Don’t stand under winching operation ● Don’t operate winch in rain.
III. Winching Principles Percentage Duty Cycle WARNING ！ Never hoist over the rated percentage duty cycle. The life of the winch is depending on the conditions of the load and working frequency. In the long time operation, make sure to use the machine within its continuous ratings. Continuous ratings means the percentage duty cycle (%ED) is subject to the rated voltage, rated frequency and a 63% of rated load.
Calculating Fleet Angle ● The winch should be mounted as close to centre and as perpendicular as possible to the direction of the line pull. This will keep the wire rope fleet angle centre on the drum as small as possible. ● If the proper fleet angle is not maintained, the wire rope could wind onto one side of the drum. Correct Distance θ θ Drum Length Fleet Angle Experience has shown that the best wire rope service is obtained if the maximum fleet angle is not more than 1.5° for smooth drum.
IV. Compliance with EU Directives Electric Winches shall comply with the following regulations 1. European Standards of EN 14492-1 for Power Driven Winches came to effect from 29th. December 2009 2. European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. 3. European Directive on Electromagnetic Compatibility ( EMC ) 2004/108/EC 4. European Low Voltage Directive ( LVD ) 2006/95/EC Extracts from the Directives 1. EN 14492-1 Section 5.15.6 Wire Rope Wire rope minimum break to be twice winch rating 2. EN 14492-1 Section 5.7.
V. Working Method Locking ring Plug Power Core Insertion Insert the power plug into the power receptacle of the winch, and tighten it by turning the locking ring, clockwise. Be sure to lock the cord by a hook. Do not allow the cord to be caught by wire rope and drum. Hook Cords Sections The length for power cord or switch cords are subject to the distance of 20 meter, for any other cases, the cords should use a bigger section by 3.
Wire Rope Replacement ● Insert the wire rope into the hole of drum and fix it with a P. T. screw, then press the ↑ button of switch for rotate the drum in the lifting direction. ● Wind the wire rope accurately around the drum, and an irregular winding will cause the load to be swing, thus damaging the wire and reducing the life of winch. ● When replacing, according to the following procedures. * Pull out an R-dowel "D" from the round head pin "C". * Pull out a round head pin "Cc from hook body "A".
Braking ● Braking device is composed of a mechanic brake and an electronic generated brake. The brake distance from the time of braking until stopping completely should be within 1.5% of rope length to the wound in during 1 minute. ● Owing to the rope speed on no load is 1.5 – 1.8 times faster than that on rated load, the brake distance on no load will be longer, but still within 1.5% of rope length.
VI. Cart Puller Capacity Choose the Right Winch In most pulling applications you are dealing with a rolling road rather than pulling a dead weight. Resistance to rolling is mostly influenced by the load, rolling resistance, track gradient, track curvature, track conditions. ● Load: Calculate the total weight of the loaded cart to be moved simultaneously. ● Rolling resistance: Resistance to rolling is influenced by the wheel journals, type of lubrication used and the ambient temperature.
VII.
VIII. Checking and Trouble Shooting Checking Reference Remark：1. The specified person performs the checking of winch. 2. Divide the checking into daily checking and periodic checking. 3. The checking items and checking method in daily and periodic checking shall be carried out and different according to the using frequency.
Trouble Shootings Checking the winch for smooth operation by pressing ↑ or ↓ button of pendant switch. When winch fails to start after several attempts, or if any defective operation to be happened, check followings.
