pewag levo hook LH

5.5 Hook network

If one radio control unit is connected to several hooks, a hook
network is created. In this case, the radio control buttons
(open/close swivel hook, workplace lighting and status query)
will perform the action in question for all the pewag levo hooks
LH in the network. For the information symbols, the following
applies:

• The battery charge status display shows the charge status of

the weakest battery.

• The status display will light up as soon as at least ONE hook

in the network reports an error.

• The display for contact with a lifting device will light up as

soon as ALL hooks in the network report the required contact
with the lifting device.

5.6 Disconnecting the pewag levo
hook LH from the radio control unit

To disconnect a pewag levo hook LH from a radio control unit,
please proceed as described in section 5.4. To confirm that the
disconnection process has been completed successfully, the
status display on the battery will give two short flashes.

5.7 Charging station

If only the red LED lights up on the charge status display, the
battery is almost empty and needs to be recharged. Always
use the pewag levo charging station to charge the battery.
To charge the battery, proceed as follows:

1. Unlock the battery and remove it from the pewag levo hook

LH as shown in section „Removing the battery“.

2. Insert the battery in the pewag levo charging station and lock

it as shown in section „Inserting the battery“.

3. Connect the device plug of the pewag levo charging station

to a power source.

The battery will charge automatically and the charging station
does not need to be activated separately.
Among other factors, the charging time will depend on the
surrounding temperature. When all green LEDs light up, the
battery is fully charged.

To see the progress of the charging process, the battery must
be activated. If the battery was completely empty, hold down
the on-button of the battery for several sections to activate it.
The charging process will stop automatically (deep discharge
and overcharge protection). Leave the battery to cool down for
at least 5 minutes after charging and before inserting it in the
pewag levo hook LH.

Never attempt to charge the battery using a
device other than the original pewag
charging station!
Never attempt to repair the charging station
yourself!

6.1 Light module

The LED of the light module is positioned just above the
(closed) swivel hook. It is activated/deactivated using the levo
remote radio control.
With the light module, the working area is fully illuminated when
the swivel hook is open. To save energy, the light will deactivate
automatically after a pre-set period of 10 seconds.
This setting may be changed (max. 900 seconds) via the
pewag levo manager software (see chapter 6.5).

6.2 Weighing module

A weighing module that may be integrated in the attachment
mechanism enables the user to track the weight development
of the individual lifting processes, in combination with the
pewag levo manager software.
It is also possible to define a weight range in levo manager.
If this weight range is exceeded or not reached, a warning
