5.3 Checking Loose Strap Function

A correctly adjusted loose strap switch ensures that the
straps stop lowering when they touch an obstruction.
1. With the ceiling hoist remaining on the track, check
there are no obstructions under either strap hook.
2. Place an obstruction under one of the strap hooks, then
press and hold the down button on the hand control,
Expected result: When the strap hook touches the
obstruction, the strap stops lowering.
3. If the strap does NOT stop lowering, adjust the loose
strap switch. Refer to chapter 3.10 Adjusting Loose
Strap Switch, page 18.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second strap.

5.4 Checking Twin Speed Functionality

1. With the hoist on the track and both straps free from
obstructions, press and hold the up button with no
load applied.
Note speed (40 mm/s) and sound of motor.
2. Whilst continuing to hold the up button, apply a load of
at least 10 kg (e.g. by pulling down on both straps).
Note the speed reduction (30 mm/s) and motor sound
change.
3. If there is no speed reduction, replace the twin speed
switch. Refer to chapter 3.11 Replacing the Twin Speed
Switch, page 19.
