Maximum Protection for Hoisted Cable
With this system personnel are out from under
the suspended cable when it is being hoisted and lowered.
Simply attach the free end of the rope to a vehicle and slowly
move away from the tower. When the hoisted cable is at the required
height, stop and back up a few inches to allow the Rope Brake
to automatically engage its braking arm which secures and locks
the hoisting rope safely.
For fast safe hoisting and lowering of mine trailing
cables at haul-roadtowers and double backup shovel setups.
