The brake on the crane travel drives is worn during operation. This lengthens the braking distance of the crane. The crane may therefore strike the end stopper of the crane track too fast and put excess pressure on the supporting structure (e.g. the building).
Suspend a load on the load
hook which corresponds to the maximum load capacity of the crane.
Move the crane into the
limit switch range.
Check the braking
distance:
For braking function: the crane must run only at low speed just in front of the end stopper.
For shut-down: the crane must come to a standstill just in front of the end stopper.
If the braking distance is
too long: Adjust the brake on the crane travel drive. See the product manual for
the crane travel drive.
