You can use the automatic systems to raise or lower the boat to a preset position
by briefly pressing the boat up/down lever. The boat can be raised or lowered to
the position set as the end point during installation. See page 12.

Raising/lowering the boat manually
You can lower or raise the boat manually without using the automated stopping sys-
tem. When the boat has been raised or lowered to its final position, the hoist turns
off. The boat is only raised or lowered as long as the lever is held up or down.
The boat can be lowered or raised to the position set as the end position.

Adjusting the boat hoist level
You can adjust the level of the hoist motors using the control panel. Do this by
turning off one of the motors using the LEVEL breaker. This may be necessary if
the boat hoist is on a slant or if a level adjustment must be performed for other
reasons.

WARNING! Be careful when adjusting the level, as too high an adjustment can
endanger the boat hoist’s load.

Raising/lowering the boat outside of the boat hoist’s
stopping positions.
You can lower or raise the boat outside of the preset stopping positions for the
boat hoist. This can be useful (i.e. at high or low tide), when the hoist doesn’t
reach high or low enough. Hold the lever toward the STOP POSITION to get
past the automatic stop.

Other remote control functions:
The remote control can also be used to control other objects on or around the
boat. The standard remote control supports the control of two different objects.
You will find suggestions below. Your re seller can provide you with a transmitter
that allows you to control several objects at once.
Contact your re seller for more information. Please note that extra equipment
may be required.
Other objects may include jet ski hoists, harbour cranes, boat cranes,
ramps or boat traverses.

Limit switch
The limit switch is connected to the boat hoist motor. With the help of a micro-
breaker, this unit senses how high or how low the boat hoist has been moved.
When the boat hoist is in the top position, a high position breaker cuts the power
to the motor.
When the boat hoist is in the bottom position, a low position breaker cuts the
power to the motor.

Functional description of limit switch
The limit switch, which connects to the engine axle, is turned when the engine
axle is spinning, turning the breaker handle in turn. The breaker handle should be
adjusted so that when the engine axle is spinning enough, (i.e. when the hoist is in
the desired top or bottom position), the micro-breakers engage to cut the power
to the motor.

WARNING! Be careful to check which breaker handle is for the top position and
which is for the bottom position. This depends on how the limit switch is installed.

Adjustment of limit switch (hoist)
In order for the limit switch to work properly, it needs to be adjusted upon
installation. This is done in two steps, first when the boat hoist is in the top
position, and then when it is in the bottom position - this is when the breaker
handles are adjusted.
When the hoist is in the desired top position, turn the screw that corresponds to
the handle/breaker you selected to regulate the height. Turn the screw until the
breaker handle activates the micro-breaker with a click.
When the breaker handle reaches this position during a hoist, the micro-breaker
will cut power to the relay that controls the hoist function.
Adjust the boat hoist or the hoisting motors to the position that corresponds to
the hoist’s top position. That is, the highest position you want to be controlled
by “AUTORUN.”
NOTE! In this example, the lower breaker has been chosen to control the lowering relay. This
may vary by installation. Depending on how the position indicator is attached, the meaning of
the breakers may be reversed. For this reason, take the necessary precautions during installa-
tion and testing to prevent damage to people or property.
NOTE! This function must be checked carefully to avoid incorrect boat hoist operation.

Adjusting the limit switch (lowering)
In order for the limit switch to work properly, it needs to be adjusted upon
installation. This is done in two steps, first when the boat hoist is in the top
position, and then when it is in the bottom position - this is when the breaker
handles are adjusted.
When the hoist is in the desired bottom position, turn the screw that corresponds
to the handle/breaker you selected to regulate the lowering function. Turn the
screw until the breaker handle activates the micro-breaker with a click.
When the breaker handle reaches this position during lowering, the micro-breaker
will cut the power to the relay that controls the lowering function.
Adjust the boat hoist or the hoisting engines to the position that corresponds
to the hoist’s bottom position. That is, to the lowest position you want to be
controlled by “AUTORUN.”
NOTE! In this example, the lower breaker has been chosen to control the lowering relay. This
may vary by installation. Depending on how the position indicator is attached, the meaning of
the breakers may be reversed. For this reason, take the necessary precautions during installa-
tion and testing to prevent damage to people or property.
NOTE! This function must be checked carefully to avoid incorrect boat hoist operation.

WARNING! It is very important
that this phase of the installation is
carefully thought out and performed
with precision. If the micro-breakers
are connected incorrectly, thus disabling
them, the hoist will NOT stop at the au-
tomatic stop positions, leading to serious
equipment damage as a result. For this
reason, test the hoist equipment without
the automatic hoisting features before
installation. See “Raising/lowering the
boat outside of the boat hoist’s stopping
positions.” for information on how to do
this.
WARNING
Moving parts can crush.
Exposed mechanical
parts of boat lift equip.
Stay away from boat
lift when operating.

TIP: If the boat hoist does not stop at
the end position, you can remedy this
by switching conductors 2(B) and 3(C)
in the connection box. This will reverse
the breaker handles’ functionality.

Mounting the limit switch into the hoist motor
The installation of the limit switch may vary depending on the type of boat hoist it
is being installed on. Below are some examples.
In the image, the limit switch is mounted at a 90 degree angle to the crankshaft.
The motor connection’s cogwheel on the limit switch is connected to a cogwheel
on the boat hoist’s crankshaft.
NOTE! This function must be checked carefully to avoid incorrect boat hoist operation.
