6.4 options

All switches are connected, wired and checked, if the control
unit has been assembled in the factory. Fine adjustments must
be carried out on-site according to the operating conditions
(Chapter 10).
In all other cases, the manufacturer of the complete machine is
responsible for wiring the options correctly.

The safety instructions specified in Chapter 3 apply.
– Always work with the consideration of safety and risks.
– Never overload the winches
– When changing the rotation direction of the motor wait until it
has come to a standstill.
– Observe duty cycle (type plate, technical data in Chapter 4.2).
GB
For example 40% ED (according to VDE 0530) means,
that the motor can operate for 4 minutes during a period
of 10 minutes. It is thereby irrelevant how heavy the load is
and whether the 4 minutes are consecutive or in intervals.
S2-12 min. means that the motor can run continuously for
12 minutes, afterwards however must cool down to the
ambient temperature.
– The load must be safely suspended in the load carrying
equipment and both must be safely hooked into the load
hook and be located on the base of the hook. The safety
catch of the hook must be closed.
– Always initiate and finish load movement with lowest speed.
First tension the rope, it may not be slack at the beginning of
the load movement.
– Continuously observe load during the movement in all positions.
– Pay attention to rope damages. Immediately report defects
to the responsible person. First repair defects, then continue
working.
– Carry out required examinations and observe maintenance
intervals.
– In case of danger press the emergency stop.
– If the overload protection applies reduce the load.
For models with haacon control, lowering movements (spoo-
ling off the rope) are still possible. Short lowering quits the
overload protection. „Lifting" is possible again after elimina-
ting the overload.
– When leaving the control point, secure the danger area under
the load. At end of operation lock up the control elements if
necessary. (Key)
Control elements:
Lifting / reeling the
rope
Lifting / reeling the
rope
(slow / fast)
Pressing initiates the movement, releasing stops it.

8. ExAminAtion, sERViCE, mAintEnAnCE

Electric rope winches for stages and studios including their
supporting structure must be examined by a surveyor.
– Before commissioning.
– After substantial modifications before recommissioning
– At least once every four years.
– If unusual events have taken place, which could have a
damaging effect on the safety of the winch (extraordinary
examination, e.g. after longer disuse, accidents, natural
occurences).
Electric winshes for stages and studios including their suppor-
ting structure must be examined by an authorised expert.
– At least every 12 month.
– After repairs, which could affect the safety of the winch.
Electric winshes for stages and studios including their suppor-
ting structure must be examined by an instructed person.
– Once every day before operation.

A person is an expert, who due to his professional training and
experience has sufficient knowledge in the area of electric rope
winches for stages and studios and is familiar with the relevant
national industrial safety and accident prevention regulations
as well as with the general rules of technology (laws, stan-
dards, technical rules and regulations) in such a way, that he
can assess the safe operating condition of the device.
A surveyor is a specially trained and officially appointed ex-
pert. By education and experience he has aquired exceptional
knowledge on the subject and is familiar with the relevant acci-
dent prevention regulations and standards. Surveyors examine
a device and make an expertise.
the examinations must be arranged by the operator.
z Test results and met measures must be documented
in a test book.
– All monitoring, maintenance and service work serves
safe operation and must therefore be carried out
carefully and conscientiously.
– As far as possible carry out the tests without load.

8.1 inspection intervals

The specified monitoring and maintenance intervals apply
within the assumed motor group for normal use and single shift
operation. The intervals must be reduced in the case of heavy
duty operations (e.g. frequent operation under full load) or
special environmental conditions (e.g. heat, dust). The lifetime
of the winch is limited, worn out parts must be replaced in time.
8.2 Examination before Commissioning and after
substantial Changes before Recommissioning
The examination is a final inspection according to DGUV-G 315-
390 and to be done by a surveyor.
among others check:
– correct mounting.
– safe working condition and functionality of the security devices.
– test load with 1,25 fold the permissible load according to
technical data.
The examination after substantial changes depends on kind
and extent of the substantial change and must be carried out
following the examination before commissioning.

8.3 Recurring Examination

The examinations are essentially visual examinations and
functional tests, whereby the condition of components regar-
ding damage, wear, corrosion, or other changes is assessed;
the completeness and effectiveness of the safety devices must
also be determined. The function and brake tests must be ac-
complished with a load, which nearly achieves the permissible
load-carrying capacity. The overload protection must stop the
lifting process at 100-110% of the permissible load.
