3.2.1 Control Hook Reach
3.2.2 Control Hook Lateral Movements
3.2.3 Lift and Lower Powered Lifting Arm
•
Hook Reach is the horizontal distance
between the wheel axle and the hook.
•
Being able t
o ‘reach out’ with the hook is
fundamental to the operation and
function of the PHT2-140 device.
•
Hook Reach can be varied by raising or
lowering the handle.
•
With no load on the hook, the weight of
the machine must be overcome to lift the
handle, but with load on the hook the
handles become lighter.
•
The hook is moved laterally
by making lateral movements
with the handles in the
opposite direction because
laterally the PHT2-140 device
pivots around the wheels as
indicated.
•
Lifting the hook and load against
gravity is a power assisted
movement.
•
To raise or lower the load,
operate the up-down rocker
switch with the right-hand thumb.
•
The up-down rocker switch will
only operate when the PHT2-140
device’s switch is set to ON.
•
Powered Lifting Arm is currently
limited to 140kg Maximum lifting
capacity
Pivots laterally on front wheels enabling left
right movements of the hook
Forward and back lateral movements
are catered by rolling front wheels
