CRITERION OF SELECTION FOR THE BEST SUITABLE MODEL
Select the correct Model for the Weight (Mass) of Tools or Equipments which will be hung. Weight means tool weight, that is, tool plus cable plus hose plus other accessories.
EXAMPLE
  1. The weight of tools itself (14 Kgs) + the weight of accessories (3Kgs) is equal to 17 Kgs (total weight). So you should select E-22 MODEL (15-22Kgs)
  2. If the total weight is on the border of two models, you should select the LARGER model. This will benefit you since the Tool Balancer will have a longer life.
  • Mount the balancer not to collide with structure.
  • Keep the balancer uneven not to collide with each other.
  • Attach the secondary support cable (or chain) to follow the moving of tools.
  • Adjust the main spring tension to be appropriate to the weight (mass) of tool (or instrument)
  • At shipping, the main spring tension is set in the middle of its capacity. For increasing, turn the worm clockwise. For decreasing, turn the worm counterclockwise.

TOTAL LOAD : When selecting a balancer , first consideration should be given to the weight of the total load to be balanced (tool plus cable or hose plus other attachments). When the total weight has been determined, the balancer model with the proper tension (weight range) can be chosen.
BALANCER MOUNTING : For maximum operator efficiency and balancer life, the Tool Balancer should always be mounted directly over the work area , with the load perpendicular to the floor when in use. Working with the load not perpendicular causes operator fatigue and excessive wear on Balancer cable and drum. When it is necessary to continually move the Balancer and Tool from one position to another, a system of trolleys and runways can be used.
CABLE TRAVEL : Cable travel is the total length of cable which can be installed and pulled out of a balancer.
CABLE OVERHANG : Cable overhang is any additional length of cable  attached to or part of the active cable, which does not retract into the balancer. Overhang cable is often necessary for work area with high ceilings.
SECONDARY SUPPORT CHAIN : It is strongly recommended that all balancers mounted overhead have a secondary support chain attached, to prevent the possibility of balancer accidentally falling. The chain attaches to the balancer with the other end attached to a support other than the one that supports the balancer. The length of the chain should be kept to an absolute minimum.
