Hoist Motor Brake

The hoist motor brake is a D.C. electromagnetic disc brake and does not require adjustment. The brake
brings the load to a smooth and quick stop and holds the load when the hoist motor is not energized. An
energized coil releases the hoist motor brake and permits the raising and lowering of the load.
