Inspecting
In addition to regular periodic maintenance inspections all chain blocks should be visually examined before being used.
(Refer also to Chapter 5 – Inspection). The purpose of pre-use checks is to identify faulty equipment. Hoists are supplied fully
lubricated from the factory. Lubrication of the load chain is recommended before initial hoist operation. See the section on
Cross-Hauling (Chapter 4) for any usage of Tiger chain blocks that does not involve working in a direct line of pull.
After use
Service the hoist before storing it. See Chapter 8 for more information on storage.
 Clean the hoist thoroughly.
 Keep the hoist well-lubricated. Oil the load chain and hook shank.
 Store the hoist correctly against rain and moisture.
When the hoist is installed outdoors, exceptional care should be taken regarding
maintenance. See Chapter 7 Maintenance for more information.
