1General specifications
The motor-driven rope pulling machine HIT-TRAC 16 is designed for pulling, hoisting and lowering loads.
1.1 Drive mechanism
A special HABEGGER steel cable of desired length which is guided over the relevant guide elements by the driving wheel and
then ejected in an unloaded state is used as the drive mechanism.
1.2 Housing cover
The removable cover on the driving wheel prevents the entry of foreign objects and protects against accidents resulting from
improper access. There is also an anti-derailment device for the traction rope integrated into the housing cover.
-Close and secure the housing cover over the driving system before carrying out any work.
1.3 Rope
The machine is equipped for rope diameters of 11.2 mm in the factory.
This rope is suitable for all hoisting, pulling and lowering work.
-Only suitable, original HABEGGER ropes should be used.
1.4 Operation
The machine is operated by a petrol engine using a friction clutch. If the machine is overloaded, the coupling slips through
and the load cannot be hoisted or pulled.
1.5 Braking
The petrol motor does not allow braking. The load is stopped using a brake which is built into the machine which needs to be
released by hand for lowering.
-During operation, ensure that the machine is not standing directly in water (or snow).
Following contact with water, you should have your HIT-TRAC checked by Habegger so that the brakes can be dried and
greased. If the brakes are wet, the load can either not be lowered or can only be lowered jerkily. The driving plate’s cams will
probably break off (predetermined breaking point).

3.3 General safety instructions
Location
-Always ensure that the device is in a fixed and secure location during operation.
-Always stand outside the danger zone of the load to be moved and never within range of the exiting rope.
-Use winding apparatus for longer ropes (longer than approx. 50m).
-You require enough space in which to move. You should therefore ensure that you have a large enough plat-
form.
-Do not use a ladder as a platform.
-If you do not have a suitable platform, deploy pulleys and choose a better location.
-When setting up the machine please ensure that no external hazards can exert influence on the rope pull-
ing machine, the traction rope, the load or the operating personnel during operation. (e.g. falling objects,
passing vehicles, overhead power lines, etc.)
-Poisoning from exhaust gases: Never work in enclosed spaces
-Risk of ignition in close proximity to open fire or highly combustible objects (fuel, sparks)!
Anchorage
The anchorage point must be able to withstand the expected tensile force (possibly test beforehand).
The best anchorage points are:
-fixed objects and structures
-rings which have been cemented in place
-Eyelets or poles
Natural anchorage points:
-strong/heavy boulders
-Trees
-other suitable objects
Technical anchorage points:
-Habegger field anchor with piles
-Rock bolt, concrete anchor
-Round timber anchor in the ground
-These anchors are highly dependent on soil conditions.
Secure the machine to the anchoring bolts with sufficiently strong straps or loops.
-The machine must be able to freely position itself in the direction in which the rope is moving. Danger of
housing breaking!
Do not use any damaged ropes or connecting loops.
Rope couplings and safety devices should not be able to detach themselves in the event of a rope being loose.
-If the machine is being used in one location for an extended period of time, check the anchors regularly!

Traction rope
The reliability of the driving system is dependent on the condition of the traction rope.
Rope construction and inherent stability (crush resistance, impact resistance) must be able to withstand the active loads.
-You should therefore only use ropes provided or approved by HABEGGER.
-The traction rope should not be lubricated.
We will accept no responsibility for any damages and liabilities resulting from the use of ropes which are unsuitable or have
not been approved by us.
The rope diameter must be in accordance with the information on the identification plate.
-Danger of injury! Close and secure the housing cover over the driving system before carrying out any
work.
-Wear gloves when handling wire ropes.
-Secure freely suspended loads against twisting so that the rope will not twist.
-Damage to the rope: squashed, untwisted, non-circular or bent ropes or ropes with kinks or broken
strands should not be used.
-Ropes with protruding strands: remove protruding strands.
-Damage to either end of the rope: If possible, shorten rope.
-Replace the rope when more than 10% of the rope is worn out at its thinnest point.
Rope connections, sleeves, compression heads, short splices, etc. should not be fed through the driving system.
When diverting the rope over sharp edges, obstacles, etc., protect the cable using appropriate floor rollers or wooden or
plastic supports.
The rope must be professionally laid, i.e. it must be from the winch so that there are no loops, kinks or twists.
The free end of the traction rope is coloured.
-Danger! Stop the machine as soon as the coloured end reaches the machine during lowering.
-Danger! To relieve the rocker, the unloaded end of the rope should not hang down more than 50 m.

Load
The load is attached to the traction hook using the appropriate means of fastening. This prevents the load from slipping or
tipping during operation.
Appropriate means of fastening are, e.g., eyelets, loops, straps, harnesses.
The load’s inherent stability must be guaranteed in order to prevent any slipping or tipping during operation.
Be aware of obstacles which would cause the load to tip or jam.
Refrain from using unchecked loads (e.g. buckets, containers) during the operating stroke or in intermediate positions or
monitor them with a load-weighing device.
Please take possible stress peaks (in static positions) from external influences into consideration during periods of resting
during operation and anchoring work.
Excessive blows to and stresses on the rope pulling machine (e.g. anchoring to machines which have been moved, wind, etc.)
should be prevented by use of a strain release wire.
-Danger! Do not store load, pulleys and ropes in the danger zone!
-Secure freely suspended loads against twisting!
Pulling, hoisting and lowering
The careful installation of the rope drive and the machine assembly is the best guarantee of smooth operation.
Place the rope on the rocker as shown on the information sheet (see chapter 5.2, observing the location of the rope with the
load hook)
Check the length of rope and the machine’s hoisting abilities by pulling!
Keep an eye on the load when it is moving!
When pulling diagonally upwards, the rope pulling machine can tip over. Shim with wood or avoid diagonal pull using a pul-
ley.
If anything is unclear, request supervision from an assistant, via radio communication if required.
-Close and secure the housing cover over the driving system using screws before carrying out any work.
This way the rope is protected against derailment and no foreign objects can enter.
The free end of the rope must also be able to exit the rope pulling machine unhindered.
-Never allow the hook to touch the housing.
When lowering, ensure that the rope is long enough. Stop at least 2 m before the
end of the rope and shim or rehang the load.
The lowering brakes must be able to freely rotate and should not be pushed against
any obstacles otherwise the driving plate’s cams will break.
Petrol motor
See the safety instructions in the attached STIHL user guide.
-Danger! Wear ear defenders when working with the petrol motor!

5Operation
5.1 Preparation
Tensile force
-Estimate using the load to be moved or calculate using a load-weighing device.
-Smaller or larger tensile forces will arise depending on whether the load is simply being pulled or whether it is
being hoisted.
-The pulling force may not be larger than the rope pulling machine’s nominal pulling force (employ rope tension
meter).
For larger forces:
-Reduce the tensile force using pulley blocks. Use the correct anchors and means of fastening (straps) for the
force.
Determine and prepare mounting options for the load:
Identify a location where the machine can be anchored and attach the rope pulling machine in the pulling direction using the
correct means of fastening.
-The rope pulling machine must be able to freely position itself in the direction in which the rope is mov-
ing. Danger of housing breaking!
Laying the rope.

5.2 Insert rope
Insert the rope only once you have carried out all the preparatory works, i.e. you have anchored the rope pulling
machine and attached the load. This means that the rope can be pre-tensioned by hand and placed on the desired
point on the driving wheel without an idle stroke. The rope is placed in the driving wheel as shown in the follow-
ing diagram (also see chapter 2):
1.
Unlock cover and swivel open.
2.
Loop the rope with the load hook at the bottom
3.
Place loop in driving wheel keyways.
4.
Place empty rope at the top underneath the thrust roller (lift rocker).
5.
Place load-bearing rope in guiding pulley.
6.
Place load-bearing rope in rope guide
7.
Place empty rope in empty rope guide
8.
Gently tighten rope using motor.
9.
Double check rope placement is correct.
10.

5.3 Pulling and hoisting
The STIHL petrol motor should be operated according to the STIHL operating instructions.
-Do not fill with chain lubricant
-Use the blend of fuel recommended in the STIHL operating instructions.
-Shake the fuel mixture thoroughly before refuelling. The fuel should not be older than 2 years old.
Check the fuel levels before commencing pulling tasks and refill if necessary. A full petrol tank provides approx. 15 min of
operating time (equivalent to approx. 150 m of rope).
Starting the motor:
1. Start the motor
2. Check that the chain brake is disengaged. (see arrow) To protect the coupling,
the chain brake should not be engaged for too long.
3. Set the driving wheel into motion using the throttle lever. Open the thrttle
enough that the motor runs smoothly and the centrifugal clutch grips properly.
When hoisting, ensure that neither the housing nor the rope are being diverted or tilted by objects or obstacles. The freely
exiting rope may not be impeded.
-Keep an eye on the rope during movement.
-Danger of slipping with small loads!
-When hoisting to over 50 m, the empty rope should not be allowed to freely hang down.
Never allow the hook to touch the housing.
Stopping the driving wheel:
Release throttle lever. The driving wheel will immediately stop moving and the built-in backstop will stop the driving wheel
from turning backwards.
-Caution! If the brake release lever is not swivelled upwards, the load will fall at the lowering speed after
the throttle lever is released.
Pivot throttle lever upwards immediately
In emergencies, e.g. in the case of jams:
Block the motor using the chain brake.

User Guide
TGT. 27.09.2017 Technical Page 17 of 20
©Copyright by Habegger Maschinenfabrik AG Version 02 / 27.09.2017
Restart under load:
1. Release chain brake
2. Quickly pull the throttle lever so that the motor can reach the required speed and the centrifugal clutch can instant-
ly deliver the required torque.
-Caution! Allowing the coupling to slide through for too long leads to overheating and early wear and tear.
When working at high altitudes or in unfavourable climate conditions:
-Optimise carburettor settings or
-Reduce load accordingly.
If being used regularly in mountainous areas, a special carburettor can partially compensate for the reduction in power.
The motor settings must be implemented according to the STIHL operating instructions or following consultation with the
manufacturer.
5.4 Lowering
To lower the load or relieve tension in the rope, release the brake:
1. Power off motor.
2. Swing hand crank out at a right angle
3. Turn handwheel in anticlockwise direction.
Turning the handle in this way reduces the preload force on the brake plates until the brake housing starts to move. The rope
speed is dependent on the speed of the hand crank.
-Caution! The driving plate cams can be damaged.
Do not release the hand crank during movement and do not pivot during movement.
To pause the lowering, stop the handwheel. This raises the contact pressure on the brake plates until the brake housing and, consequen-
tially, the load come to a stop. As soon as the brake housing stops, turn the hand crank 1/4 of a revolution backwards and pivot it back in.
Turn the hand crank a 1/2 revolution backwards in a clockwise direction after the rope has been released so that the spindle can be re-
leased from the nut and doesn’t seize up when it cools down.
As energy produced during lowering is converted into frictional heat, the distance the load can be lowered by is restricted to
protect the lowering brake against overheating. The table provides the maximum values:
Lowering force
Lowering distance
16 kN
30 m
10 kN
50 m
8 kN
60 m
5 kN
100 m
2 kN
250 m
If the load is to be lowered over longer distances, the brake should be allowed to cool (air) and then lowered the rest of the
distance.
-Danger of falling! Pay attention to end of rope! The unloaded rope should slide into the machine freely
and without kinks. Stop lowering at least 2 m before the end of the rope.
