Before Use
WARNING: Ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply before attaching or changing
any accessories, or making any adjustments.
Hoist installation
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to install this hoist single-handedly. Correct and safe installation
requires more than one person.
1. Locate a suitable installation position for the hoist
Note: The hoist is designed to be installed on a beam of at least 43mm in diameter with a wall
thickness of at least 3mm. Ensure the beam is capable of supporting loads twice the maximum load
capacity of the hoist.
2. Lift the hoist up to the beam and align the Mounting Brackets (8) with the threaded holes on the
top of the Motor Cover (7)
3. Fasten the Mounting Brackets to the Motor Cover securely, using the Bracket Fasteners (9)
Attaching the return pulley
1. Mount the Return Pulley (14) by removing the bolts and the R-Clip securing the Return Pulley
Hook (15)
2. Feed the cable around the roller of the return pulley and attach the main Lifting Hook (16) to the
Hook Holder (6) on the Motor Cover (7) - take care not to lose the bushes securing the Return
Pulley Hook (15)
3. Re-align the Return Pulley Hook and replace the bolts and R-Clip
Note: Ensure the Return Pulley is correctly mounted. When correctly attached the hoist has a lifting
capability of 500kg. When using the Lifting Hook (16) for lifting, the capacity is reduced to 250kg.
The lifting capacity is printed on the side of each hook.

Operation
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing protection, as well as
suitable gloves, when working with this tool.
• Once plugged into the mains power source, the hoist will be ready for operation
• Never move the Operating Switch (11) directly between
the central (OFF) position between each up or down operation
• If the hoist is unable to lift the load, stop immediately to prevent it being overloaded
Loading the Hoist
• Before loading, ensure the load is placed directly below the hoist. Failure to do so could result in
the load swinging freely once elevated
• Ensure that the load is free to move and is not restricted by anything. If the load is restricted, this will
cause the hoist to overload and potentially cause severe damage. This may also invalidate the warranty
• The load must be firmly and securely attached to the Lifting Hook (16) of the hoist
• If using a cargo sling to aid in the lifting of the load: ensure the sling is sufficiently supporting
the load, and the load is properly centred in the sling
Note: Ensure that the operating switch is in the off position so that the hoist will not attempt to lift
the load whilst being connected.
Lifting the Load
1. When the load is correctly attached, remove the cable slack slowly by moving the Operating
Switch (11) into the position
2. When the slack has been removed, ensure there are no persons within a 5m radius of the load
being lifted
3. Press the operating switch into the to lift the load to its required position
Note: Be aware of the maximum lifting capacities and height limitations stated in the specifications.
• When the hoist reaches its height limitation it will automatically switch off
Lowering the Load
1. Before attempting to lift the load, make sure the surface the load is to be lowered onto is capable
of supporting the load, and that it is sufficiently stable and ready to be loaded
2. Lower the load by pressing the Operating Switch (11) into the
3. Gently lower the load ensuring that the load stabilises
4. Lower the Lifting Hook (16) an extra 30cm to ensure there is enough cable slack to disconnect
the loading hook and then lift the hook clear of the load
Note: When lifting the hook clear, ensure the cable winds onto the spool correctly and does not
cross over itself.
WARNING: If at any point during the hoist's operation someone enters the operating area or
the load becomes unstable, press the Emergency Stop Button (10) immediately. To release the
Emergency Stop Button, rotate it clockwise.
