Do not over load the reel. Observe the max. load specifications.
When you fully unwind the rope, leave at least 4-6 turns on the reel drum to ensure enough friction.
Rope or steel rope must be evenly wound on the drum. Reel is equipped with safety mechanism against
reverse motion.
Never unwind the entire rope under load/tension! The rope may come out of the drum.
To fasten the rope on the drum you do not need any screws, nuts or
holding mechanism. Fasten the rope by pushing it through the openings on
the drum side as seen on the picture. Before use make sure that all screws,
nuts and fastening clamps are securely tightened.
Fastening the load to the rope hook
•
Make sure the safety hook clamp is working properly. It is prohibited to
use your machine without properly functioning hook clamp.
Handle assembly
•
Put the handle on the reel shaft and secure it in place with safety nut.
•
It is prohibited to use your machine without properly fastened handle.
Risk of bodily injuries.
Fast unwinding without load
•
Turn the safety clamp to its middle position and pull the rope out until
you reach the required length.
Note
•
You must hold the safety clamp in this position during the entire unwinding process.
•
In this position the reverse motion mechanism is disabled!
If the rope is under tension or load, the
drum may start spinning out of control, as well as the handle, which may seriously injure the operation
personnel.
CAUTION
When you fully unwind the rope, leave at least 4-6 turns on the reel drum to ensure enough friction and to
make sure that the rope is securely fastened on the drum.
