• Heavy-duty multiple disc D.C. brake (dual braking system)
• Motors up to 7 1/2 h.p. provide a wide range of lifting speeds
• Single or two speed controls.Two speed models operate on 3:1 speed ratio
• Standard adjustable upper and lower screw limit switches
• Standard overload Protector device
• Hardened forged steel latch type hooks
• Fits most crane packages
• Hoistaloy load chain can be easily inspected for wear and abuse
