1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 15. Never allow the load chain to “set” over sharp edges. All lifts must be made with straight chain that is free of obstacles. WARNING – To reduce risk of injury: 1. Read and understand the entire owner’s manual before attempting assembly or operation. 16. If the hand chain is difficult to operate, then the load exceeds the capacity of the chain hoist. Select a chain hoist of larger capacity. 2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the tool and in this manual.
Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual: This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or possible tool damage. This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious injury or possibly even death. 2.0 Table of Contents 1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ............................................................................................... 2 2.0 Table of Contents ..................................................
3.0 Introduction This manual is provided by JET covering the safe operation and maintenance procedures for a JET Model L-100 Series Chain Hoist. This manual contains instructions on installation, safety precautions, general operating procedures, maintenance instructions and parts breakdown. This hoist has been designed and constructed to provide consistent, long-term operation if used in accordance with instructions set forth in this manual.
4.
5.0 Using the Chain Hoist 5.1 Prior to Operation 1. Support for the hoist may be hook, clevis pin, trolley, or beam clamp. Whatever method of suspension is chosen, the support components must be rated equal to, or greater than the capacity of the chain hoist. 2. If the chain hoist has not been used for an extended period of time, check for proper operation before putting into service. 3. The brake mechanism must be kept clean and free from dirt, water, and oil.
5.2 Hooking the Load 1. Secure the upper hook. 2. Place the bottom hook securely into the object to be lifted. 3. Place ropes or chain in the center of the bottom hook, making sure the safety latch is secure. Never load the hook in front of the safety latch. See Figure 3. 4. Avoid lifting one load with two hoists. If this is unavoidable, apply equal weight to both hoists and use hoists with the proper lift capacity. Capacity of each hoist must be equal to the total load to be lifted. Figure 3 5.
6.0 Hand Chain – Cutting and Installing To cut the hand chain in order to increase or shorten: To change the length of the hand chain, the chain must be cut and links added to increase the overall length or links removed to decrease the length. This is done as follows: 1. Insert one link lengthwise into the vise (Figure 6). Be sure that the side opposite the weld lies completely below the surface of the vise jaw (about 1/3 of a link). This prevents nicking or cutting the lower part of the link.
7.3 Attaching Load Chain to Load Chain Sprocket (all models) 7.0 Load Chain and Bottom Hook Install the new load chain onto the load chain sprocket as follows, referring to Fig. 10: 1. Position the load chain sprocket by rotating the hand chain wheel so that the wide and narrow grooves show. 7.1 Load Chain Inspection (all models) Over time, the load chain will wear or elongate. This can cause damage to the hoist, breakage, or non-engagement of the load sheave. 2.
7.4 Load Chain and Bottom Hook Installation The following procedure assumes that the load chain has been attached to the chain anchor (A, Figure 12) and fed through the load chain sprocket as described in the previous section. This section completes the load chain and bottom hook installation. A 7.5 Chain Installation: 0.5- to 2-Ton Hoists C Referring to Figure 12: 1. Remove the lock nut and bolt from the lower hook (D). B D 2. Insert the last chain link (C) into the lower hook slot. 3.
7.7 Chain Installation: 10- to 20-Ton Hoists Referring to Figure 14: 1. After installing the load chain into the load chain sprocket (B), run the remaining chain through your hand to remove any twist. The last link of the chain must be in the same direction as the first. If not, cut off the last link. 2. Insert the last link into the left side pulley of the lower hook (C). 3. Pull the load chain through and up from the underside of the pulley (C, D). 4.
9.0 Inspection and Maintenance 1. Clean hoist after each use and oil lightly. NOTE: Do not get oil on brake system. 2. Do not drop or drag the hoist. Read and follow ANSI Inspection and Maintenance Instructions. Know the meaning of Frequent Inspection, Periodic Inspection, Normal Service, Heavy Service, and Severe Service. It is the customer’s responsibility to understand and follow all ANSI and JET inspection and maintenance instructions. 3. Store the hoist environment. in a clean and dry 4.
10.0 Load Limits 10.1 Load Chain Capacity 5 Links Normal 5 Links Limit 0.25 ton 0.5 ton 1 ton 1.5 ton 2 ton 3 ton 5 ton 10 ton 15 ton 20 ton 2.36” 2.95” 3.74” 4.13” 4.72” 4.13” 5.31” 5.31” 5.31” 5.31” 2.43" 3.04" 3.85" 4.25" 4.86" 4.25" 5.47" 5.47" 5.47" 5.47" Table 1 Carefully inspect the entire load chain. As illustrated in Figure 15, measure five consecutive links with callipers to measure the length. Check every three feet and especially where excessive wear is indicated.
11.0 Troubleshooting JET® Manual Chain Hoists Symptom Possible Cause Correction1 Hoist will not move in either direction. Hand chain wheel is jammed, worn, or damaged. Hand chain slips over wheel. Inspect and clean hand chain and hand chain wheel. Replace if worn or damaged. Check hand chain wheel for damage or worn cogs. Replace if needed. Inspect and clean. Check for chain link deformation. Replace elements if needed. Oil load chain for optimal performance. Inspect, clean, and re-grease gears.
12.0 Timing Marks for Gear Replacement If the gears on the L-100 hoist need replacement or removal for any reason, make sure they are reinstalled correctly. Figure 17 shows the proper orientation of the timing marks when meshing the gears. Figure 17 13.0 Replacement Parts Replacement parts are listed on the following pages.
