ANTI-
RECOIL
TO OVER
FORCE/
SPEED
Toggle Anti-Recoil detection method between
standard over-speed and over-force detec-
tions. Anti-Recoil protects against a dropped
weight while running Float Mode which would
cause the unit to speed upward until hitting
an object or a push force equivalent to the
dropped weight.
Over-Speed Detection:
Unit terminates Float
Mode if speed exceeds maximum Float Mode
speed at 90% of unit loaded speed.
Over-Force Detection:
Unit terminates Float
Mode if user’s operating force exceeds the
maximum force limit or a dropped weight is
detected by evaluating the force pro
fi
le. Di
ff
er-
ent from Over-Speed Detection, unit can run
at the maximum Float Mode speed.
Note
:
a. Maximum force limit defaults at 35 lbs.
b. A dropped weight pro
fi
le assumes the oper-
ator has both hands o
ff
the weight (tooling) as
the unit speeds upward. Detection ability may
reduce if user attempts to stop the unit or if the
tooling swings heavily.
If the total lifted weight (e.g. tool and part)
is less than the maximum force limit, Over-
Speed Detection is applied.

SS CHECK
Steady-State Check monitors the Hook’s mo-
tion up or down at a set speed for a speci
fi
c
duration. If this condition is met the G-Force
stops because of an anti-recoil event. The
anti-recoil Max Force detection mode can
now be adjusted via the MAX FORCE setting
below once Turn ON SS Check is selected.

Set Anti-Recoil Over-Force Detection maxi-
mum force limit between 15 and 45 lbs. at 5

30 and 90 lbs. at 5 lb. increments.
b. Turn on SS Check for this Menu to be
