1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
p WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other
connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices.
A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current
Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected
by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business
premises, are tested by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition
of those appliances and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact
a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2. and use a Portable Appliance Tester.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short
circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or
damage and check all connections to ensure that none is
loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance
matches the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted
with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors.
Immediately have any faulty item repaired or replaced by a qualified
electrician. When a BS 1363/A UK 3 pin plug is damaged, cut the
cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.
Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal E.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal L.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal N.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the
cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral
(blue) wires only. To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.
1.1.10. Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified
electrician to ensure that a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an
industrial round pin plug and socket with your electrician.
1.1.11. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance
plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm2, but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of
the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm2section cable.

2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATIONS
7DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the hoist.
7DO NOT operate the hoist when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
7DO NOT use the hoist where there are flammable liquids, solids or gases such as paint solvents, etc.
7DO NOT attempt to lift angled loads or to drag loads with the hoist. The centre of gravity of the load must always be directly below the hoist.
7DO NOT allow the load to swing beneath the hoist.
7DO NOT allow a raised and supported load to fall and thus shock load the mounting, hoist, cable and hook.
7DO NOT use more than one hoist to lift a load.
7DO NOT leave the hoist unattended with a suspended load.
7DO NOT wrap the hoist cable around the load.
7DO NOT use the hoist to lift dangerous materials.
7DO NOT use the hoist to lift people.
3Use a qualified person to lubricate and maintain the hoist.
3When not in use and before carrying out repairs/maintenance isolate the hoist from the power supply.

3. MOUNTING
3.1. Unpack the hoist and check contents against the items listed below. Should there
be any damaged or missing parts contact your supplier immediately.
Items
1. Hoist assembly
2. Double line pulley and hook (loosely assembled)
3. Bag containing mounting brackets (2) and screws (4)
3.2. Ensure that the selected support is sufficiently strong and will also hold the hoist in a
horizontal position. If alternative mounting brackets are fabricated ensure that these are at
least as strong as those provided and align with the mounting holes (fig.2 A) in the hoist.
3.3. Once the hoist is attached to the mount, connect cable (fig.1.1) to a switched power
supply using either a junction box or an in-line plug and socket (plug is not supplied).
4. OPERATION
fig. 2
pWARNING! Before using the hoist ensure that you have read, understood and apply the
safety instructions in Section 1.
4.1. Ensure that the load to be lifted is directly below the hoist and that any lifting straps, ropes or
chains being used are capable of supporting the weight.
4.2. With mains power switched on, operate control switch (fig.1.2) to bring hook to load height.
Press lower half of switch to lower hook and upper half to raise hook. Release switch to stop hoist.
4.3. Attach hoist hook (fig.1.3) to load ensuring that safety bar (fig.1.4) is fully closed.
4.4. Use control switch to raise or lower the load to the required height.
4.5. To carry out a double line lift first place single line hook in aperture in hoist frame (fig.2.B).
Then take double line pulley and hook, remove nut and bolt holding hook and place pulley on
cable loop between hoist drum and single line hook (fig.2.C). Refit hook and tighten both
locknuts (fig.2.D), ensuring that pulley is free to rotate.
Proceed as 4.2. to 4.4.
Notes: 1. It is important not to completely empty the cable drum and therefore the cable has a
marker to indicate maximum cable length. DO NOT allow this marker to move significantly
below the cut-out arm (see fig.3).
2. In order to prevent the motor/gearbox from overheating the hoist should not be operated for
longer than four minutes at any one time. Any period of use should be followed by a
similar period with the hoist at rest.
3. Do not wind loose cable onto drum - ensure that cable is always under tension.
fig. 3
5. MAINTENANCE
The hoist should be checked at regular intervals to ensure that it is undamaged and is functioning correctly.
5.1. Isolate from the power supply and inspect the following for any signs of damage, wear or
looseness, as appropriate:
a) Lifting cable d) Mounting brackets/bolts
b) Electrical cables/connections e) Support structure
c) Control switch
Rectify any faults found.
5.2. Reconnect to power supply and check for correct operation of the control switch and the
maximum lift cut-out switch - hoist stops when counterweight (fig.1.5) lifts cut-out arm (fig.1.6).
