Safety Instructions

WARNING
  • Never pull the hose when unloaded.
    If the hose is released when extended with no load, it will snap back and could cause personal injury.
  • Take care when adjusting the spring tension. A torque is on the spindle and it could move the adjusting tool you are holding.
    Lock the spindle using the ratchet at every 1/4 turn.
CAUTION
  • It the spring tension is set over the maximum capacity, the balancer can not provide the specified hose travel and spring life will be shortened.
    If the spring tension is set under th minimum capacity, the balancing operation will be extremely poor.
  1. Before attaching, check the mass (weight) of the complete tool/device, including all accessories, is within the capacity range of the balancer.
  2. Lift the complete tool/device up to the swivel joint and attach it.
    Never pull the hose down to the tool/device.
    NOTE : The suspended tool/device will drop if the spring tension is not enough.
    Lower the tool/device slowly by hand.
  3. Adjust the spring tension by turning the spindle with a hexagon socket screw key.
  4. Check the tool/device is balanced.
    NOTE : Over-tensining could cause damage to the balancer body or the hose.
