Before all pulling operations, make sure that all nuts and screws are
tightened.

With the capstan winch 1800, do not detach the capstan from the
flange; this will void the guarantee.
›
Always anchor the capstan winch such that it hangs freely, so that
it can turn in the direction of the load.

Switch off the motor before performing maintenance, servicing and
cleaning work, and secure the capstan winch before switching on
again.

Safety instructions for fastening

›
Only fasten the capstan winch at the fastening eye.
›
Never anchor the capstan winch with a hook, shackle, chain or
another metallic object.
›
Only use textile fastening slings, e.g. a polyester round sling.
›
Make sure that the pulling rope fulfils the requirements specified in
the technical data and does not exhibit any damage.
›
Make sure that the pulling rope and capstan drum do not come into
contact with lubricant. Otherwise the rope may slip through during
pulling operations. The maximum traction of the capstan winch is
not guaranteed in this case.

Anchor the capstan winch on a sufficiently load-bearing tree or
another fixed object such that it can move freely. The anchor point
must exhibit strength of at least double the capstan winch traction.
