Benefits:
Reduced worker fatigue, as the balance removes nearly all the weight from the handheld sticher whilst operating
Prevents mechanical damage from dropped tools and bag stitchers
Prevents misplacement of tools and bag stitchers, as it is in a fixed location
Ensures stable tool and stitcher positioning - enabling more accurate work
Working principle
The balancer has a spring loaded wheel, with a tapered drum - allowing for variable spring torque when lifting or pulling down the tool or stitcher. The tool is fastened with a detachable hook to a roof rafter, or overhead support, and the wire rope with the clasp is lowered down and the tool or stitcher is hooked onto the balancer. The tension of the balancer can be set - to the specific weight of the tool to ensure best performance for any tool hooked to the balancer.
