AC Electric Winch
21
Rope Tensioner
The winch has an optional rope tensioner, the tensioner is spring loaded onto the
rope on the winch drum, this assists in feeding the rope on properly and prevents
“birds nesting” when there is no load on the rope.
Shutdown
1)
To switch off, press the power button on the pendant control.
2)
Unplug the power lead once the winch has been switched off.
CAUTION
Always unplug the power lead when the winch is switched off.
Routine Running Checks
During extended periods of hauling operations, the following checks should be
carried out at approximately 2 hourly intervals:
1)
Check the system and power unit for overheating.
2)
Listen for any unusual sounds.
Maintenance
The HWA3500 Series and HWA5000 Series winches are virtually maintenance free.
To keep in good working order, lubricate wire rope with lanolin-based protectant
every 3 months.
