Warning

Prior to operation and/or maintenance of elebia products, read and understand the information provi-

ded in this user’s manual.

Failure to review and utilize recommended applications, operation and maintenance instructions may

result in serious injury to operator and others.

It is the sole responsibility of the operator to ensure the correct manipulation and handling of any load

while using any of the elebia products. Automated processes in any lifting operation, whether attaching

and/or releasing any load, or other, must always be submitted to visual inspection of the operator.

elebia designs and produces automated lifting solutions which enhance safety and productivity but can

never replace the responsible and provident handling of all lifting processes.

This user’s manual covers the Application, Operation, Use and Maintenance of the elebia NEO50 & NEO60

lifting hook.

NOTE: Disconnect power sources prior to handling.

Disclaimer: This user manual is for informational purposes only. The manufacturer reserves the right to modify its speciﬁcations without prior notice.

Restrictions

· Inﬂuences resulting from temperature

The elebia NEO lifting hook has been designed to be used in normal atmospheric conditions and in a

temperature range from -20 ºC to 60 ºC / -4 ºF to 140 ºF. The NEO lifting hook must not be used if these

conditions are not met.

· Inﬂuences from acids/alkalines and chemicals

The elebia NEO lifting hook must not be exposed to acids/alkalines or their vapours, as certain produc-

tion methods may release acids and/or vapours.

FCC, IC, CE & ARIB

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmit-

ter, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.

Any changes or modiﬁcations not expressly approved by the warranty of this device could void the user’s

authority to operate the equipment.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment oﬀand on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the

following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna; Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

The NEO lifting hook can also be controlled using a free channel

of the crane’s master control. The eINST remote control has to

be placed in the crane relay cabinet, where only simple wiring is

needed. It may be used by pairing to a free channel of the crane’s

master control. It is compatible with all cranes.

The eINST remote control can block the upward movement of

the crane when the NEO lifting hook is in intermediate position.

Available as 24 V DC or 48 V DC

Dimensions: 80 x 140 x 45 mm. / 3.15 x 5.51 x 1.77 in.

Lifting Procedure

Engage

Release

NEO approaches the

lifting point, orients

and positions itself

once the hook con-

tacts the lifting point.

Once load is safely on

the ground.

The trigger makes

contact with the lifting

point and the closing

operation begins.

The release order can

be given.

NEO’s sensor recognizes

the hook is in the closed

position and latches

automatically.

(visual conﬁrmation with the

LED’s status changing from

green (open) to red (do not

lift) and ﬁnally to blue (closed).

The NEO lifting hook

unlocks and opens.

(red colour in LED status

indicator. Do not lift.)

The load is ready to be

lifted and transported.

Load is released.

(green colour in LED

status indicator.)

Always On / Smart Nap

Laser Pointer

Manual Override

With the“Always On”mode, the colour code scheme

of the LED status indicator will always be visible. Blue

– for closed – and green – for open – are continuous

for 10 seconds and then take an intermittent pattern

in order to save battery. Activate this mode by pushing

the top button beside the battery.

Battery Duration:

5.000 cycles / 250 hours in standby mode

The NEO lifting hook carries a laser pointer as an op-

tional feature. In lifting operations, and from a certain

distance, the sense of depth can be misjudged.

The laser pointer acts as a guide in order to perfectly

place and set the NEO lifting hook in the correct

position when approaching the lifting point.

It can be manually activated by pressing the button

that is beside the battery slot.

If there is ever the need to manually override NEO’s electronics, the process is very simple.

Insert the end/tip of

pole in the cover’s slot.

Pull until cover opens and

wait until LEDs turn green.

Lower the end/tip of pole until it reaches

the narrow lower end of the cover’s slot.

The“Smart Nap”mode reduces battery consumption

by activating the LED’s colour code scheme when the

NEO’s hook commences its closing motion. Up until

that moment, the lifting hook is in sleeper mode and

its electronics and battery are not active.

Battery Duration:

5.000 cycles / up to 2 months in standby mode

The warranty of the NEO lifting hook is for 2 years

and covers parts and labour for the use envisaged

and recommended in the user manual. Batteries

and maintenance operations, and the materials

and labour involved therein, are exempt from the

warranty. Non-performance of checks and mainte-

nance may lead to cancellation of the warranty.

This warranty is limited to the original end user of the lifting equipment and is subject to the equipment

being inspected, controlled and maintained according to the producer and dealer instructions throug-

hout the warranty period. The warranty period is 2 years from the purchase date and is subject to the

conditions and measures given here.

Warranty will not be valid when any of the following measures are met:

• Wrong and/or carelessly use.

• Damages by not following procedures and measures.

• Damages by hoisting diﬀering material other then indicated on the NEO lifting hook or stated in

the user manual.

• Adapting and/or modifying the NEO lifting hook.

• The injudicious use of the NEO lifting hook, and not succeeding all indications which are stated in

the user manual.

• When maintenance inspections have not been carried out by the authorised elebia Technical Service.

The manufacturer is not responsible for incidental damage or damage due to wrong use of the lifting

tools as well as from violation of this manual.

At least once a year, or in case of any damage to the NEO lifting hook, the hook should be inspected, tested

and if necessary returned to Elebia Autohooks SLUTechnical Service for review. The frequency of inspections

and tests may vary according to the intensity and type of use.
