10.4 Manual load calibration
Before starting the calibration, make sure you have a known test-load available of at least 80% and
maximum 130% of the nominal lifting capacity of the hoist
It is advisable to by-pass the overload protection during this calibration routine by setting the parameter
3-5 “OL protect” = OFF
The overload protection will automatically reset after 30 min. or after power off.
