Lubrication
Proper lubrication with machine oil is necessary to increase the life of the chain. Lubrication should be done
based on usage and on a regular basis. It may be necessary on a weekly basis for heavy use or monthly if
used less often.
• Clean the chain with an acid free cleaning solution to remove debris.
• Apply oil to chain focusing on bearing surfaces such as interlink areas.
• Do not apply oil to braking surfaces.
• Gears and shafts run on sealed bearings and do not require lubrication.
Disassembly to Replace Load Sheave or Stripper
1. Remove the chain
2. Remove the lock nut (35), screw (39), lock washer (38), hand wheel (27), lever handle (22), overload/
brake cover assembly (20), female thread grip (19), friction disc (17), ratchet disc (18), free spring (16),
and disc hub (15).
3. From the gear side remove the gear case assembly (1), disk gear assembly (2), and drive shaft (3).
Then remove the snap ring (47) , splined gear (4), and gear side plate assembly (5). Slide the load sheave
out of the gear side plate. Now the stripper can also be removed (10).
Assembly
Before reassembly check each part for damage, corrosion, or excessive wear. Replace parts
as necessary. Re-assemble the hoist in reverse order to the disassembly steps listed above.
Once assembled the chain can be installed and before use the unit should be tested for proper
function.
Storage of Hoist
Store the hoist in a clean dry area.
Maintain proper lubrication of the hoist while it is being stored.
If the hoist is malfunctioning clearly mark it before placing it in storage.
Outdoor Hoist Usage
Store hoist indoors when not in use.
Frequently inspect the hoist for signs of corrosion due to environmental factors.
