Care and Storage

Beta Max portable hoists are rugged and durable. However, because they are used
under all sorts of conditions, service timetables and guidelines must be followed
for hoist optimum performance and safety. Store the hoist away from excess
moisture when not in use. Keep the hoist covered if it is being stored in a corrosive
environment. On a daily basis remove all debris, mud, dirt, or other foreign
materials from the hoist and all auxiliary equipment.

Motor and Electrical Connectors

Be careful not to damage the motor housing cooling fans. If the fins are broken,
have the motor examined immediately by a qualified technician. Do not allow the
pendant control switch to become submerged in water or any other liquid. Keep all
electrical cables and connections from becoming cut, bent, corroded, or damaged
in any way.

Wire Rope (General)

Ensure the wire rope is not bent, kinked, corroded, knotted, or damaged in any
way. If the wire rope shows any of these conditions, immediately replace the wire
rope. During normal hoist operation and typical wear, the wire rope will lose some
of its original lubricant. It is extremely important that the wire rope is always
lubricated. Use 90W gear lube generously (not dripping) applied with a shop
towel.
WARNING
Always wear heavy gloves when handling the wire rope to prevent possible hand injury. Never place
hand between UP limit bar and drum.
