Other Lubrication
When the chain block is disassembled for cleaning or repairs, the following locations should be lubricated using suitable
grease:
 gears
 load sheave bearings

load chain roller guides
 gear bearing bushes
 pinion shaft
 inner of ratchet gear being careful not to contaminate the braking surfaces.
The brake is designed to operate unlubricated. Do not use any grease or lubricant on the braking surfaces. When lubricating
parts adjacent to the brake, do not use an excessive amount of lubricant as this could seep onto the brake surface.
The grease should be suitable for temperature ranges of -40°C (-40°F) to +50 °C (+122 °F). It should take into account the
application, temperature range, corrosion resistant properties required and other relevant conditions.
Thread lubricant or an anti-seize compound use is recommended for threaded shafts, capscrews and nuts. Unless otherwise
stated, remove old lubricant, clean part with an acid free solvent and apply a new coating of lubricant to part before assembly.
! WARNING
Using any grease or lubricant on the braking surfaces will cause brake slippage and loss of load control which may result
in injury and/or property damage. To avoid injury do not use any grease or lubricant on the braking surfaces. The brake is
designed to operate unlubricated.
Alignment of Gears during Reassembly
For 500kg, 1.0t, 1.5t, 2.0t lite, 2.0t. 3.0t twin fall, 5t and 8t capacity
units:
The teeth between two marks at the gear spline must be on the
horizontal centreline, one facing towards the centre and one
facing outward, as shown. (Figure 1)
For 3.0t single fall, 10.0t, 15t, 20t and 30t capacity units:
Note the marks "0" on the gears. For the right gear, place the "0"
mark next to the pinion shaft spline on the horizontal centreline.
For the left gear, place the "0" mark to the top on the vertical
centreline as shown. (Figure 2)
