For decending and ropeing up with a fibre rope. The best workin areas for fibre-rope rescueing are steep or overhanging rock, steep forrest or lawn-areas, gorges and Canyons. The optimum working range is up to about 100 m at a working load of up to 250 m. The best suited ropes are Static Fibre ropes with a diameter of 11 mm.
The self-tailler device
provides the necessary pullback power. The operator does not need to apply
any pullback power to create friction between rope and brakedrum.
Two speeds - enough power for every situation.
Chan-ging the gear-ratio is effected by changing the turning-direction of
the crank . The first speed provides enough power to rope up two persons
by one man (6,1:1), while the second speed is used for ropeing up smaller
loads or when working with two persons on the crank (32:1). For ropeing
up over very short distances, simply pull back the retarding-strand of the
rope powerfully while cranking up in the first speed.
Controlled running of the rope.
Two guiding rolls control the inhauling of the rope and prevent it from
tangling and blocking on the winch drum. No tangling because of exact guiding
of the rope. To insert the rope open the upper roll.
Eemergency
stop funktion. As soon as the operator
lets the rope go out for any reason, it is blocked automatic-ally. While
ropeing down, the energency Stopp is held open through the hold back power
applied by the user. If this hold-back force is not there any more (if the
operator lets the rope go), the emergency Stopp blocks acts and the rope
is stopped gently over the brake drum. Ropeing up, the rope also runs through
the emergency Stopp. If the winching action Stopps, the rope is blocked.
The emergency Stopp acts on the low-load side of the rope behind the winch
and is permanently in action.
Standing stability cue
to the vertical position of the winch drum. The U-shaped winch-body guarantees
a safe op-eration and maximum standing stability even in the most difficult
anchoring circumstances. Also, the movement of the crank parallel to the
ground minimizes the danger of squeezing your fingers between crank and
ground.
High
strength Aluminum alloy for winch body, mounting
support of the rope blocking system. Winch drum and the guiderolls are manufactured
from bronce. Stainless gearwheels and winch drum bearings.

At a safety factor of 7, the safe working load is 250 kg.The ultimate load
is way beyond 2200 kg. Tested by the Austrian
Government Certified Testing Institute for Mechanical Engineering.
