This hoisting system incorporates variable speed control (unlike the 2 speed DCM Manulift) for lifting, lowering and the placement of loads up to 250kg with absolute precision. The variable speed is operated through a button which works like a car accelerator; the further it is pushed, the faster it goes. Partial loads can go quicker than a full load! And the unit has creep speeds of 0.15 m/min. This is ideal for valuable or sensitive loads. The hoist will switch to the creeping speed automatically, just before the top and bottom limit locations are reached.
