Pulling, Lifting And Lowering - Habegger HIT-TRAC 16 B Mode D'emploi

Make sure there are no obstacles that could cause the load to tip or get stuck.
Avoid any uncontrolled loading (e.g. buckets, containers) during lifting or in intermediate
positions, or control the loading with a load-measuring device.
While bracing or anchoring the machine, take into account the possible tension peaks (in a
static condition) caused by external influences.
Prevent excessive shocks and strains on the pulling machine (e.g. anchorage of moving
equipment, wind, etc.) by using relief rope.

Danger! Do not stay in the danger area of loads, guide
pulleys and ropes!
∆
Secure any freely suspended loads against twisting!

Pulling, lifting and lowering

The precise setting of the rope drive and the arrangement of the machine are the best
guarantee for trouble-free work.
Insert the rope as instructed on the information label in the cover (see chapter 5.2, observe
the position of the rope with load hook).
The rope pulling machine must always stand upright! Control the stretching of the rope and
the lifting of the device when pulling! Observe the movement of the load!
If pulled at an angle from above, the wire rope hoist will tip over due to the weight of the
motor. Either guide the wire rope hoist by hand, or align it using rope to the direction from
which it is being pulled, or prop it up with a chock of wood, or avoid diagonal forces using a
pulley, or use the HIT-TRAC with a frame (wire rope guidance).
In unclear situations, ensure that somebody is at hand to watch out, if necessary via radio
contact.

Prior to carrying out any work, the housing cover over
the drive system has to be closed and locked. This
prevents the rope from derailing, and keeps foreign
bodies out of the system.
The free end of the rope has to be able to exit freely from the pulling machine.
The pulling force at the unloaded end of the rope must not exceed 25 kg. I.e. at most 50 m
rope can hang freely on the machine.
