Manwal tal-Utent tal-Parank Elettriku Toolcraft TC3501 400/800 kg

1. Istruzzjonijiet Importanti dwar is-Sigurtà

Read and understand all safety warnings and instructions before operating this electric hoist. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.

• Sigurtà taż-Żona tax-Xogħol: Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Do not operate the hoist in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
• Sigurtà Elettrika: Ensure the power supply matches the specifications of the hoist (120V, 60Hz). Do not expose the hoist to rain or wet conditions. Never operate with a damaged cord or plug.
• Sigurtà Personali: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses, gloves, and safety footwear. Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times.
• Hoist Use and Care:
  • Do not exceed the rated load capacity (400 kg without pulley, 800 kg with pulley).
  • Inspect the hoist, cable, and hooks for damage before each use. Do not use if any part is damaged.
  • Kun żgur li t-tagħbija tkun imwaħħla sew u bbilanċjata qabel ma terfa'ha.
  • Keep hands and body clear of the cable and moving parts during operation.
  • Tużax il-parank biex terfa’ nies jew annimali.
  • Avoid sudden starts and stops when lifting or lowering loads.
  • Tħallix tagħbija sospiża waħedha.
  • Disconnect the hoist from the power supply before performing any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing.

2. Prodott Aktarview u Komponenti

The Toolcraft TC3501 Electric Hoist is designed for lifting and lowering loads up to 800 kg. It features a robust motor, steel cable, and a remote control for safe operation.

Komponenti Ewlenin:

• Hoist Motor Unit: Contains the electric motor, gearbox, and cable drum.
• Kejbil tal-Azzar: High-strength steel cable, 5.0 mm thick, for lifting loads.
• Main Hook: Attached to the end of the steel cable for securing loads.
• Pulley System (Load Doubler): An additional pulley and hook assembly used to double the lifting capacity (from 400 kg to 800 kg) and halve the lifting speed and height.
• Kontroll mill-bogħod: Wired control unit with "Up" and "Down" buttons for operating the hoist.
• Parentesi tal-Immuntar: Two sturdy brackets for suspending the hoist from a suitable support structure.

3. Setup u Installazzjoni

Proper installation is crucial for safe and efficient operation. Ensure the mounting surface can support the hoist's weight plus the maximum intended load.

3.1 Immuntar tal-Parank

1. Select a Suitable Support: Choose a robust overhead beam or structure capable of safely supporting at least twice the maximum rated load (e.g., 1600 kg for an 800 kg hoist).
2. Parentesi tal-Immuntar Sikuri: The hoist comes with integrated mounting brackets. Position the hoist on the chosen support structure and ensure the brackets are securely fastened. Use appropriate bolts, nuts, and washers (not included) to prevent any movement or slippage.
3. Iċċekkja l-Istabbiltà: After mounting, gently pull on the hoist to confirm it is stable and securely attached to the support structure.

3.2 Setting Up the Pulley System (for 800 kg capacity)

To achieve the 800 kg lifting capacity, the included pulley system must be used. This configuration effectively doubles the lifting force but halves the lifting speed and maximum height.

1. Attach Pulley to Hoist Hook: Take the main hook (the one directly attached to the steel cable) and attach it to the top loop of the pulley block.
2. Ir-Rotta tal-Kejbil: Pass the steel cable from the hoist drum, down through the pulley wheel, and then back up to the secondary attachment point on the hoist body. Secure the cable end to this point.
3. Attach Load to Pulley Hook: The load will now be attached to the hook on the pulley block.

Note: When using the pulley system, the maximum lifting height is reduced to 6 meters. Without the pulley, the maximum lifting height is 12 meters.

4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

Always perform a pre-operation check before each use.

4.1 Kontroll ta' Qabel l-Operazzjoni

• Inspect the entire hoist for any visible damage, especially the steel cable, hooks, and power cord.
• Ensure all mounting bolts are tight and the hoist is securely attached.
• Verify that the load to be lifted does not exceed the hoist's capacity for the chosen configuration (400 kg or 800 kg).
• Clear the lifting path of any obstructions.

4.2 Irfigħ u Tnaqqis ta' Tagħbijiet

1. Qabbad l-Enerġija: Plug the hoist into a grounded 120V, 60Hz power outlet.
2. Waħħal it-Tagħbija: Securely attach the load to the hoist hook (or pulley hook if using the 800 kg configuration). Ensure the load is balanced.
3. Lift Load: Press and hold the "UP" button on the remote control to lift the load. Lift slowly and smoothly. Observe the load for stability.
4. Lower Load: Press and hold the "DOWN" button on the remote control to lower the load. Lower slowly and smoothly.
5. Waqfien ta' Emerġenza: In case of an emergency, release the control button immediately. The hoist will stop.
6. Wara l-Użu: Once the task is complete, lower the hook to a safe position, disconnect the power, and store the hoist properly.

5. Manutenzjoni

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Toolcraft electric hoist.

• Spezzjoni tal-Cable: Regularly inspect the steel cable for kinks, fraying, corrosion, or broken strands. Replace the cable immediately if any damage is found.
• Spezzjoni tal-Ganċ: Check hooks for deformation, cracks, or excessive wear. Ensure safety latches operate freely.
• Mutur u Housing: Keep the motor housing clean and free of dust and debris to ensure proper ventilation. Do not open the motor housing; refer to qualified service personnel for internal issues.
• Lubrikazzjoni: The hoist is factory-lubricated. Do not attempt to lubricate internal components unless specified by the manufacturer.
• Ħażna: Store the hoist in a dry, clean environment when not in use. Protect it from moisture and extreme temperatures.
