8.2
Using a small flat-head screwdriver, the position of the switch can be turned to any of the positions that are
numbered from 0 to 9. If a slower speed is desired, position the switch to a smaller number (towards 0). If a
faster speed is desired, position the switch to a larger number (towards 9).
STEP 9 - FLOAT MODE (OPTION)
9.1
Lift and steady the load.
9.2
Without applying any external forces to the load, press the Float Mode Button for one (1) second. When done
correctly, the “Blue” LED light will turn on (the “Yellow” LED will remain on as well).
9.3
The direction and speed of travel is now being controlled by the amount of force that the operator exerts directly
onto the load. To move the load down, put vertical pressure on the load in down direction. To move the load up,
lift up on the load in the vertical up direction. The higher the force exerted on the load, the faster the unit
moves.
STEP 10 - FINAL STEPS
10.1
Please contact the Gorbel® factory (585-924-6262) of any of the following occur.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
REPAIR UNIT YOURSELF.

Please do not be limited by these items only.
10.2
Keep Packing List, Installation Manual, Drawings, and any other inserts filed together in a safe place.
DRIVE FAULT TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
The G-Force® ILD has extensive diagnostic capability. The “Red” System Fault LED flashes when basic faults have
been detected by the control system. If a fault has occurred, the Standard Mode Operating or Float Mode LEDs will
go off.
The red System Fault LED flashes a simple code when a fault has occurred. The sequence of flashes indicates the
type of fault. The sequence consists of a number of short flashes followed by a long pause. The number of short
flashes is the key to determining the fault code. For example, three (3) short flashes followed by a long pause
indicates fault code #3. The sequence continually repeats until the fault is reset. The Fault Codes are listed in the
chart on the next page.
WARNING
If external forces are applied to the load while Float Mode is being initiated, the G-Force® will calculate
a baseline weight that is higher or lower than the actual weight being lifted. When the external force is
removed, the load will begin to drift in the opposite direction of the load that was applied.
WARNING
NEVER remove the load from the G-Force® while still in Float Mode. The drive will interpret the removal
of the load as operator intent to lift the load. Therefore, the Handle will begin to drift up. The speed of
the Handle drift directly correlates to the weight that was removed from the unit. The heavier the
weight, the faster the Handle will travel.
