Maintenance, Cleaning and Storage
Ensure that the work area is free of debris, rot, rust, decay, cracking, explosive substances and
hazardous materials. A stable work area is required for use. Dirt, corrosives, and contaminants should
be cleaned with water as necessary. Mild soap can be used if necessary, though a thorough rinse
and dry is mandatory. Lightly lubricate all moving parts after cleaning. Never clean the hoist with
corrosive substances. Always store your hoist where it will not be subjected to heat, light, excessive
moisture, chemicals, or other elements. If it is necessary to use the product in hot (40+ C), cold (-10
C) or very humid (90%+) conditions, please contact your local OZ dealer. When it is necessary to use
the product outdoors, be sure to provide a cover in order to protect the body of the unit from wind and
rain, or snow.
Inspection
In order to maintain quality operation of the product, a regular inspection schedule should be followed
by each operator. Operators should inspect hoist before each usage. Each hoist must pass an
inspection by a qualified person every six months to remain in service. Inspect for wear, damage,
cuts, cracks, corrosion, impact damage, pits, burrs, rough surfaces, sharp edges, rust, paint build-
up, excessive heating, alteration, and missing or illegible labels. During any inspection, also test that
the hoist functions smoothly and that the load is held securely. If any problems are observed, the
hoist should be placed out of service until it can be repaired. Use only OZ Lifting Products LLC® for
replacement parts. The hoist should be taken annually to an authorized repair center for professional
inspection.
Ensure that maintenance and inspection or repair is carried out only by persons possessing
specialized knowledge designated by the contractor.
When carrying out maintenance and inspection or repair of the OZ500EC, ensure that it is not
suspending a load.
If the hoist does not operate properly during maintenance and inspection, remove it from service until
it can be repaired.
Before carrying out maintenance and inspection or repair, be sure to follow all applicable lock-out/tag-
out procedures. Ensure the hoist is not energized or under any type of load before beginning any type
of service or maintenance.
