LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 INITIAL START-UP WARNING: Before connecting power to hoist, check all “motion” buttons on pendant control assembly to make sure that they operate freely without binding or sticking. Check pendant cable and strain relief connection to ensure that they are not damaged. General Initial start-up procedures are as follows: Read all attached WARNING tags and placards affixed to hoist.
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 Operational Checks – No Load Check hoist motor brake function. Run empty load block up or down to check that load block does not drift more than 1.0 inch [25mm]. If so, adjust brake as described in Section 5.3 of this manual. Run empty load block down to check that fall stop (located on free end of load chain) makes proper contact with upper / lower travel safety limit switch and that limit switch functions properly.
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 HOIST OPERATION WARNING: BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE NORMAL OPERATION OF THIS HOIST, THE OPERATOR/(S) SHALL BE TRAINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LoadMate® Electric Chain Hoist Operator’s Manual AS SUPPLIED WITH THIS HOIST. WARNING: FAILURE TO READ AND COMPLY WITH ANY ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS NOTED IN THIS MANUAL AND THE LoadMate®...
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 Hoist Motor Brake and Load-Limiting Device The hoisting motor is equipped with a D.C. electromagnetic disc brake. The brake brings the load to a smooth and quick stop and holds the load when the motor is not energized. An energized coil releases the hoist brake to allow the hoisting motor to run freely when in use.

LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 SEE Figure 5 CAUTION: Make sure the motor is not running before placing tool on the nut to adjust it. Do not touch any moving components. CAUTION: The slip-clutch generates heat when slipping. ITEMS 3 & 4 absorb this heat. When these items become too hot, clutch adjustment may be difficult due to unstable behavior of friction surfaces.
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 5.3.3 Hoist Motor Brake Adjustment (See Figure 5) If maximum air gap of brake has been reached or will be exceeded before next inspection, readjust air gap. Minimum air gap Maximum air gap X = 0.006” [ 0.15 mm ] X = 0.020”...
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 Load Chain 5.4.1 General CAUTION: A hoist SHALL NEVER be used if the load chain shows any evidence of mechanical damage or excessive wear. Never use the load chain as a sling. Use only original equipment chain as supplied by a factory authorized source. Improper load chain storage or installation can render the load chain unusable prior to the first lift.
Page 24
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 Measure the following chain dimensions at several points on chain: (Figure 6) Dimensions of one link ( d x t ) where, d = diameter and t = pitch Length over 11 links ( 11 t ) Replace load chain if any one of these dimensions exceeds maximum allowed wear.
LM01 I&M MANUAL/EN/11.30.2010 5.4.5 Installing the Load Chain Figure 7. Chain Installation Figure 7-A. Chain Orientation 1-FALL CHAIN INSTALLATION 1.
