SPESIFICATIONS
When running Wiral LITE with high loads and
in high speed for a longer period, the main
unit might get warm. To protect the product
from possible damages, it will automatically
slow down the speed for a short period to
cool down. If the problem continues, the unit
will stop.
When using Wiral LITE over time, the rope
will wear and tear. To avoid to much damage
on the rope, there are some precautions that
can be taken.
1. Do not use steeper lines than 30 degrees.
2. If hitting obstacles, the support pulleys
might derail. Be sure to place them in the
correct position before you continue.
3. When mounting Wiral LITE, be sure that
the line is placed in the drive wheel groove. If
not, the line will be damaged.
If you are experiensing connection or control
errors while using Wiral LITE, a solution
could be to do a factory reset to recalibrate
the unit. The reset is a quick and simple
operation:
1. Press and hold the on / o button on the
main unit while connecting the battery.
2. If done correctly, the motor should start
running slowly to calibrate the unit.
3. When the motor stops, the unit is ready to
use.
