the risk of electrical shock. The standard power cord is equipped with a three-prong plug, used with 110V unit. Make sure that the receptacle opening that receives the longest prong is properly grounded. • Have ample capacity to prevent excessive voltage drop during starting and operation. When determining the size of branch circuit components and conductors, special consideration should be given to the starting current amps and the length of the conductors.
Testing and Operational Checks On completion of installation, but before the hoist is put into regular service, the following procedure should be followed: 1. Check that the hoist is properly installed to either a fixed position or trolley, whichever applies. 2. If hoist is installed on a trolley, ensure that: • The trolley is properly installed on the beam. • The stops for the trolley are correctly positioned and securely installed on the beam. 3. Isolate the power supply. 4.
Item Method Criteria Action Hooks (bent shank or neck) Visual Shank and neck portions of hook should be free of deformations. Replace Hooks (hook latches) Visual, Function Latch should not be deformed. Attachment of latch to hook should not be loose. Latch spring should not be missing and should not be weak. Latch movement should not be stiff when depressed and released latch should snap smartly to its closed position.
Item Method Criteria Action Contactor Contacts Visual Contacts should be free of significant pitting or deterioration. Replace Pendant (switches) Function Depressing and releasing push buttons should make and break contacts in switch contact block and result in corresponding electrical continuity or open circuit. Push buttons should be interlocked either mechanically or electrically to prevent simultaneous energization of circuits for opposing motions (example: up and down.
Operating Instructions ⚠WARNING • Do not exceed rated load capacity of 2200 lb. • Do not lift people, animals, or loads above people or animals. • Only operate the hoist when the load is centered under the hoist. • Do not use chain hoist as a sling. • Do not support load on hook tip. • Do not operate if restricted from forming a straight line from hook to hook in the direction of loading. • Do not pull chain at an angle. Lifting and Lowering Loads To lift a load, press the↑button.
Chain Inspection 1. First, clean chain with a non-caustic , non-acid type solvent and make a link by link inspection for nicks, gouges, twisted links, weld splatter, corrosion pits, striations (minute parallel lines), cracks in weld areas, wear, and stretching.A chain with any of these defects must be replaced before use. 2. When checking the chain for wear, check the part of the chain that goes through the lift wheel of the hoist most often.
times between cleanings. When lubricating the chain, apply sufficient lubricant to obtain natural runoff and full coverage, especially in the interlink area. Gearbox For ambient temperature of approximately 50℉ to 122℉, a gear oil of Mm²/S at 104℉, with mild high-pressure additives should be used. IDEMITSU racing gear 140 GL-5 is the oil that should be used.
Failure Possible Cause Hoist lowers but will not lift Hoist will not lift rated load or does not have the proper lifting speed Load drifts excessively when hoist is stopped Hoist operates intermittently Corrective Action connections. Replace or repair as needed. not lower Broken conductor in pendant cord Check the continuity for each conductor in the cable. If one is broken, replace the entire cable. Hoist overload Reduce load to within rated capacity of hoist.
