Brake Adjustment

Under normal use, the brake mechanism will not require any adjustment. If the brake fails
to hold a load, the brake disc may be worn and require replacement. When the brake wears
to the point that the load begins to slip, the brake can be adjusted as follows:
1). Loosen the bolt on the brake cover and take out the retaining rings.
2). Insert spacers/washers to maintain the brake spacer between to be 2.2 ± 0.25 mm.
3). Make sure to keep the clutch base plate is rotated counter-clockwise by 150 – 180 degree.

Tip for prolonging the life of wire rope

1). Do not wind out past the red paint section of the rope to secure the anchorage of the rope on
the drum.
2). Make sure the first layer of wire rope is tight and maintain a freeboard at least 1.5 x rope
diameter on the drum
3). To compensate for uneven spooling and the decrease in line pull capacity as the drum fills up,
use as short a wire rope as practical.
4). A minimum of five wraps of rope around the drum load is necessary to support the rated load.

Wire Rope Replacement

1). Spool the entire rope, and then remove it from the drum.
2). Pass the replacement rope below the drum, and insert
it into the hole No.1 on the drum core and wind about
1/4 wrap of rope on the drum.
3). Insert the wire rope into No. 2 hole and tighten the
set-screw downwards to secure the wire rope
