ith trolley in lowered position, turn handle clockwise to wind cable onto winch and raise trolley and equipment
Raise trolley until it passes Locking Lever Arm (6) which will spring back to normal position after trolley passes.
DO NOT keep winding winch with trolley against stopper (7) as this will put undue stress on winch cable and may cause damage.
Turn winch handle anti-clockwise to lower trolley onto Locking Lever Arm (6) so trolley and equipment is not supported on
winch cable. Leave just enough tension on winch cable to keep it tight.
If there is a small amount of slack cable after lowering trolley onto locking arm hand tension cable and install cable ties through
four holes in winch track section just above winch to keep cable flat on winch track section.
Install cable cover (5) onto track (3).
