Installation
Support for the hoist may be hook, clevis pin,
trolley, or beam clamp. Whatever method of
suspension is chosen, the support components
must
be rated equal to, or greater than the
capacity of the lever hoist. Supporting structures
(such as I-Beams, etc.) should be installed by
properly licensed professional installers.
Pre-Operation Inspection
Inspecting the Chain
1.
A chain stop must be attached to the second-
to-last link on the slack end of the chain. See
Figure 2 for an example.
Do not operate the hoist with a
twisted, kinked or damaged chain. Do not
splice the chain.
2.
Check that the chain does not twist along its
length from hoist to hook.
3.
Replace the chain if links are stretched too
long or seriously worn on the surface,
especially at the points where links contact
each other. See “Allowable Limits” on page 11
for measuring chain elongation.
4.
Do not use a chain that is seriously rusted or
cracked.
5.
Periodically apply a light coat of 30-weight oil
to the chain. This will create easier operation
and prolong the chain’s life. For optimum
results, clean the chain with an acid-free
solution before oiling.
6.
Never
extend load chain by welding a second
piece to the original.
