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.
