The appliance is designed for lifting and lowering loads in enclosed areas commensurate with the appliance’s capacity.

The appliance is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user/operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.

Please note that the appliance has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. The warranty will be voided if the appliance is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.WEH200/WEH300

• Before connecting the appliance to the mains make sure the mains data matches the data on the rating plate.

• Always disconnect from the mains before making adjustments to the equipment.

• Do a no-loading test before start-up operation at first, and please check:

o the flexibility of the up/down operating switch to ensure the controlling of appliance and lowering of the load hook.

o the flexibility of the upper limit bracket to ensure the cut-off of circuit.

o the flexibility of the lower limit bracket to ensure the cut-off circuit when the steel cable is nearly used up.

o any abnormal sounds when starting the operation.

o the steel rope is possibly damaged (split or bent) or reaches 20 hours after using. In this case, change the rope immediately.

• The appliance is not suitable for transporting hot and/or molten masses. In addition, it is not suitable for use at low temperatures or in aggressive atmospheres.

• The appliance belongs to mechanical group M1.

• Ensure that the operator knows how the appliance works and how it should be operated.

• The user should always operate as set out in the operating instructions.

• The appliance is not designed for continuous operation. Its mode of operation is intermittent without influencing the starting process.

• The rated capacity of the appliance does not vary due to the position of the load.

• Please inspect the hook before every operation for possible damage or distortion. Replace it in time.

• The service life of the appliance is approximately 8000 cycles (excluding wearing parts). When the appliance has completed 8000 cycles, all its mechanical parts must be checked and overhauled.

• Operation using a residual current protective device (Red Emergency Stop Switch) offers additional protection under danger and in emergency circumstances. To use the emergency stop switch, screw the switch head in the arrows direction to recover operation after removing the damages.

• Be sure that all parts are sufficiently lubricated. Daub the lubricant on the load hook, cable drum shaft, gear box, and bearing every half a year.

• After opening the packaging, inspect the frame, the steel cable, the hook and the electric control mechanism for signs of possible transit damage.

Assembly and Installation

• The appliance is fitted with two fastening clamps with which it must be fastened to a rectangular tube. The dimensions of the arm must be conform with the size of the fastening clamps and must be capable of supporting twice the rated load. We recommend that you seek advice from a qualified technician.

• All screws must be tightened correctly. A qualified technician should check the anchoring of the arm before the machine is started.

• Install the appliance on a steel beam. Use only the enclosed installation brackets which can be attached to the top of the mounting casing using the screws, washers, and spring lock washers. The steel beam must be able to withstand at least double the rated lifting capacity of the appliance.

• The steel beam must have a diameter of 46 x 46 mm, a wall thickness of at least 2.3 mm and a length of at least 450 mm.

• The steel beam must be securely anchored in a wall. The anchor must be installed correspondingly sturdy in order to be able to withstand the load.

• Please be sure that the appliance is installed level and not slanted.

• The remote control must always be easily accessible and must therefore be installed at a distance to the floor of between 0.8 m and 1.5 m.

• Insert the load hook into the hook bracket of the mounting casing when using the additional load hook with deviating shaft.WEH200/WEH300

Block and Tackle Function

The appliance is fitted with a return roller and an additional hook. If these parts are used correctly, the appliance can lift twice its rated load.

Fit the return roller and additional hook as shown. The permanent hook must be attached to the fastening hole. The load is now raised by two steel cables, which means that the appliance can lift twice its rated load.WEH200/WEH300

Operation Information

• Remove the adhesive tape from the drum before first use.

• The value of the A-rated noise emissions at the operator’s position is less than 70 dB.

• The appliance must be operated in ambient temperatures of between 5 °C and 40 °C with a relative humidity of less than 90 %. Height above sea level: max. 1,000 m.

• The temperature for transport and storage may be between -25 °C and 55 °C. The maximum temperature must not exceed 70 °C.

• The user should lift the load off the ground at the slowest possible speed. The cable should be taut when the load is raised.

• The motor for the appliance is fitted with a thermostat switch. Whilst the appliance is operating, the motor may therefore stop. It will restart automatically when it has cooled down.

• The appliance is not fitted with a rated power limiter. You should therefore not repeat attempts to lift a load if the overload trip is limiting the appliance’s operation. In this case the load exceeds the rated capacity of the appliance.

• Do not leave any suspended loads unsupervised without first taking the appropriate safety precautions.

• Fit the appliance with a 10 A fuse or a 10 A residual current operated circuit breaker (RCCB) to protect the circuit.

• Do not use the lever as a routine stopping device. It should only be used to stop the appliance in an emergency.

• Before you start, ensure that the steel cable is correctly wound around the drum and that the spacing between the winds is smaller than the steel cable.

• Ensure that the load is correctly secured to the hook or, if you are using the block and tackle, the additional hook, and always maintain a safe distance from the load and the steel cable.

• Check whether the emergency stop switch is pressed. Turn the red stop switch clockwise to release it.

• Press ▲ to raise the load.

• Press ▼ to lower the load.

• Automatic stop mechanism lever: when the maximum lifting height has been reached, the cut-out weight presses the lever upwards. This trips a limit switch after which the load cannot be raised any further.

• Lever for maximum cable length: when the load has reached its lowest possible position, a limit switch is tripped which makes it impossible to lower the load any further. This limit switch also prevents the appliance operating in the wrong direction (hook moving in the opposite direction to the arrow shown on the control switch).

• The appliance will stop if the emergency stop switch is pressed.

• In an emergency, immediately press the emergency stop switch to stop the appliance. The appliance cannot be operated if the emergency stop switch has been pressed.WEH200/WEH300

This appliance is designed for operating type S3 20 % - 10 min. (periodic intermittent operation). The relative duty cycle is 20 %, which means that the appliance can be operated at rated load for 2.0 minutes during each operating cycle and must then be switched off for 8 minutes to cool off. The appliance can therefore be continuously used for a duration of 20 % of the total operating cycle of 10 minutes at rated load.

• The appliance is not suitable for continuous operation. The motor is protected from overload and overheating by a temperature switch.

• If the permissible operating time is exceeded, the motor temperature will increase and the temperature switch will shut the appliance off. The temperature switch will automatically switch back on after a cooling phase.

• In case of a strain on the appliance with a lesser load, the operating time will increase and the cooling time will decrease.

• In case of direct exposure to sunlight, the temperature of the casing will increase significantly, which will also decrease the permissible operating time. It is therefore possible that the temperature switch will switch off after a short period and the appliance will shut down. Please wait until the device is cooled off.

8. Care and Maintenance

• Always disconnect the appliance from the mains before starting any cleaning, maintenance or servicing work.

• In the following: One cycle means one raising and lowering movement of a load. Periodic inspection means an inspection after 100 cycles.

• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust.

• Wipe the appliance with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure. Clean the appliance regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents as these could attack the plastic parts of the appliance. Ensure that no water can seep into the appliance.

• We recommend that you clean the appliance immediately after each use.

• A check must be made every 30 cycles to find whether the entire steel cable is in good condition. If it is damaged (split or bent, see illustration below), it must be replaced by a steel cable of the type specified in the technical data.

• Check that the power supply cable, motor stop switch and the push button are in good working condition.

• Periodically test that the limit switches on the cable hoist are in correct working order. Conduct this test as follows: when the cable has reached the maximum height, the lever on the automatic stopping mechanism will be actuated. The motor must then stop (test without a load).WEH200/WEH300

• When the steel cable has been unwound as far as possible, the lever for the maximum cable length will be actuated. The motor must then stop.

• Inspect the mains cable and the control cable periodically.

• The steel cable and return roller must be greased every 200 cycles.

• Check every 1000 cycles whether the screws for the fastening clamps and return roller are properly tightened.

• Check every 1000 cycles whether the hooks and return roller are in good condition.

• Check before using the appliance whether the emergency stop switch and pushbuttons are in perfect working order.

• Check the braking system every 1000 cycles. If the motor makes any unusual noises or cannot raise the rated load, it is possible that the braking system requires an overhaul:

o Replace damaged or worn parts and keep the service documentation relating to this in a safe place.

o Please contact an authorized service centre for any unscheduled maintenance work.
