Prior to installing the hoist, carefully inspect it for possible shipping damage. Hoists are supplied fully lubricated from the
factory. Lubricate the load chain before initial hoist operation
• A falling load can cause injury or death. Before installing, read "SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES".
• Owners and users are advised to examine specific, local or other regulations which may apply to a particular
type of use of this product before installing or putting hoist to use.
Hoist
The supporting structures and load-attaching devices used in conjunction with this hoist must provide adequate support to
handle all hoist operations plus the weight of the hoist and attached equipment. This is the customer's responsibility. If in
doubt, consult a registered structural engineer.
Hook Mounted Hoist Installation
Place hook over mounting structure. Make sure hook latch is engaged. Ensure the supporting member rests completely
within the saddle of the hook and is centered directly above the hook shank.
• Do not use a supporting member that tilts the hoist to one side or the other.
Trolley Mounted Hoist Installation
Refer to trolley manufacturers installation information to safely install the trolley and attach the hoist.
Chain Container
When installing a chain container, refer to the manufacturers installation Instructions for Chain Containers.
• Make certain to adjust the balance chain so that the chain container does not contact the load chain.
• Allow chain to pile naturally in the chain container. Piling the chain carelessly into the container by hand may
lead to kinking or twisting that will jam the hoist.
1. Check the chain container size to make sure the length of load chain is within the capacity of the chain container.
Replace with a larger chain container, if required.
2. Attach the chain container to the hoist.
3. Run bottom block to lowest point and run hoist in up direction to feed the chain back into the container.
Air System
The supply air must be clean, lubricated and free from water or moisture. A minimum of 6.3 bar/630 kPa at the hoist
motor is required, during operation to provide rated hoist performance.
Air Lines
Refer to Table 1 for the minimum allowable hose size.
Hose size is based on a maximum of 15 m between the air
supply and the hoist motor. Contact your nearest
distributor for recommended air line sizes for distances
greater than 15 m. Before making final connections to
hoist inlet, all air supply lines should be purged with
clean, moisture free air. Supply lines should be as short
and straight as installation conditions will permit.
Long transmission lines and excessive use of fittings,
elbows, tees, globe valves etc. cause a reduction in
pressure due to restrictions and surface friction in the
lines. If quick-disconnect fittings are used at the inlet of
the hoist, they must have an air passage equal to the
