If the winch is equipped with a Free Spool (FS) option for the cable drum. Follow the next instructions to engage and
disengage the cable drum. The CW700 is always equipped with a freewheel.
To be able to operate the Free spool clutch handle ( red lever) there must be no load on the drum.
Freespool TL series
To disengage:
Set the cable drum free by turning the drum 2-3 mm in direction A. Then pull and turn the clutch handle in direction B or C.
The drum is now free to spool of the cable
To engage:
Turn the clutch handle in direction B or C. Rotate the cable drum in direction B or C until it locks. The winch is now ready to hoist.
CW series
Decoupling
To release the cable drum proceed as follows. Loosen the butterfly screw so that you can remove the crank. At the end of the crank there is a hole, this hole
should be placed on the pin on the side of the winch. On the side of the crank there is a pin about 0.5 cm long. Put this pin into the hole in the side plate where
the pawl is located. This will allow you (lever) to push the crank down so that the freewheel will engage. Note that the freewheel only engages when you push
the crank down.
3.6. ATEX
The winches with EX coding can be used in ATEX zones 2 and 22. In addition, a distinction has been made in coding for the worm gear winches (WW), spur gear
winches (TL) and worm gear marine (MR) winches. See type plate for corresponding coding. The codes have the following meaning:
a.
CE marking in accordance with the European Machinery Directive
b.
Ex marking for explosion safety
c.
Group II for use in all environments (industrial use) except mining
d.
Category 3 is the level of protection and is suitable for either:
G (gas environments)
D (dust environments)
Followed by 'Ex' (explosion proof)
e.
Suitable for or:
II (Gas group II)
III (Dust group III)
Our marine (MR) winches have a higher ignition energy (IIB) in the gas group than our worm gear and spur gear (WW/TL) winches (IIC).
The ignition energies of the dust group are the same for all types of winches, namely IIIC.
f.
Temperature class for or:
T4 (temperature <135 ºC), T135 ºC (temperature <135 ºC)
T3 (temperature <200 ºC), T200 ºC (temperature <200 ºC)
Our worm gear and marine (WW/MR) winches are T4 marked. Our spur gear (TL) winches have a T3 marking.
g.
Equipment Protection Level:
Gc (gas) or Dc (dust)
h.
Ambient temperature (ambient) for use from -20ºC up to 70 ºC
4. Maintenance
The winch must be unloaded for inspection and maintenance tasks. Inspection and maintenance tasks must be performed by skilled personnel, e.g.
via your Gebuwin dealer.
Inspection/ Maintenance interval
Before each use
Per quarter
Annually
* Texaco 'Texclad premium 2' is recommended by us for the worm wheel gearing (or equivalent). Orders can be placed through your Gebuwin dealer or on the
website:
www.gebuwin.com.
Tasks
visually check cable and loading hook
-
-
for WW type winches check amount of grease* on the worm wheel gearing
-
check the brake function
-
visually check cable and loading hook for any fracture
-
grease the worm - worm wheel gearing
check the load pressure brake for wear and tear
-
Replace the brake discs as needed
Be careful: Do not get any grease on the brake discs or preceding surfaces
-
check the cable according to DIN 15020 pg. 2 for wear and tear; also test and maintain the minimum breaking
force.
-
check the tightness of the mounting bolts
-
check all the winch parts for wear and tear; replace where necessary; grease where needed.
check the type identity sticker for clarity
