7.1.4.9 Replacing an old style rope guide with a heavy-duty rope guide
When replacing an old style rope guide with a new style rope guide in a true vertical lift hoist or in a machinery
hoist, the hoisting limit switch setting for the hook lower position may need readjusting to ensure safe operation.
See the following drawing to identify the type of rope guide you have on the hoisting unit.
1. Old style rope guide
2. New style rope guide
The heavy-duty rope guide cannot travel as close to the rope fixing clamps on the rope drum as the old style rope
guide. It takes approximately 10 mm more space in that direction. After installing the heavy-duty rope guides, adjust
the hoisting limit switch so that there is a minimum of 15 mm gap between the rope guides and the rope fixing
clamps when the hook is in its lowest position. Test-drive the hoist and readjust if necessary.
