WARNING!
Take at least two turns of the rope around the winch drum, and if it slips under load increase the
number of turns to a maximum of four, taking care not to overlap the rope.
NOTE!
The number of turns needed round the winch drum depends on the load and the condition of the
rope. Check the device's descending capacity in its working configuration.
In case of difficulties unwind the rope, and reduce the turns to not less than 2 wraps, until you have
the optimal configuration.
WARNING!
Never allow rope to (override) overlap on winch drum. This can cause rope to jam and can prevent
load from being lifted/lowered. Tension on rope to load must be relieved to clear override (overlap).
This procedure carries a risk of serious injury or death if load drops or becomes uncontrollable.
