OPERATION Red Rooster pneumatic hoists and trolleys are designed for the lifting and lowering of loads within the capacity of the model selected. The range of hoists and trolleys can be UKCA, or CE marked and conform with ‘Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 (As they apply to machinery being supplied in or into Great Britain from 1st January 2021) for UKCA marking and also the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC for CE marking.
Thoroughly examine the equipment prior to installation to ensure that no damage has occurred during transit. Hoists and trolleys should not be altered in any way without contacting Red Rooster for clearance, as this may affect the certification of the unit.
When the emergency stop button is pushed or if the air supply to the hoist is cut off then the valve will close stopping the hoist. ▪ Red Rooster hoists have a 5:1 factor of safety.

▪ The load chain is not twisted through (two fall or more models) and that the load chain passed through the limit lever (All models). ▪ The load chain anchor is sound (both live and slack end). ▪ Check for damage to the hoist, pendant and control lines. ▪ Do not operated below -20°C or above 60°C without contacting Red Rooster. HOIST CHECKS (AIR SUPPLY ON) ▪ The pendant buttons, levers or cords should be smooth to operate and return to neutral when released (hoist stops and does not run on). ▪ The hoist is run up and down on a regular basis. Where hoists are hanging in a dry and protected area they should be run weekly, where the hoist is outside and not protected it should be checked, lubricated and run daily.
ALMOST in the vertical position. When the load is applied, the tension in the sling will be slack. THE SLING IS NOT CAPABLE OF HOLDING THE LOADS CARRIED BY THE HOIST M01-AH4-CH REV6 ▪ Red Rooster Lifting Limited ▪ Nauta House, The Meadows, Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire, AB51 0EZ ▪...

CAUTION modification of the hoist (See air service equipment) - CONSULT YOUR DEALER. Note 2 All Red Rooster hoist chain must be lubricated to prevent wear. DANGER Keeping load chain clean and lubricated will greatly increase the lifetime of the chain and prevent costly replacement. Very little lubricant is needed and can be easily applied to the chain by cloth, brush or spray.
▪ Only use the hoist to make a lift safe when a warning alarm has been activated in the area and then isolate the hoist. AT ALL TIMES THINK BEFORE YOU ACT - PLAN EVERY LIFT M01-AH4-CH REV6 ▪ Red Rooster Lifting Limited ▪ Nauta House, The Meadows, Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire, AB51 0EZ ▪ Tel: +44 (0) 1651 872101 ▪...

If another hoist cannot be used to lower the load it is possible to release the brake by slackening the brake cover screws but this should only be done by a RRL engineer or after discussions with Red Rooster as it is not always possible or safe to do so.
Non-vertical lifting can cover a range of activities such as horizontal pulling, cross-hauling, or oblique pulling. Normally Red Rooster pneumatic hoists should only be used for the lifting and lowering of loads vertically, so using standard Red Rooster hoists for lifting at an angle may cause damage to the hoist, the supporting structure or trolley if the equipment and structure have not been confirmed as suitable.

The following air hoist models can be modified for Cross Hauling - TCR-1000, TMH-3000, TMH-6000/2, TMH-10T, TMH-25T & TMH-30T. All Red Rooster hoists modified to be suitable for non-vertical lifting working at angles up to 45 degrees will have ‘CH’ at the end of the model number. For special applications Red Rooster can design and manufacture trolleys where the load is at 90 degrees to the runway beam. ▪ Unless stated otherwise trolleys should only be used for vertical lifting.
It is recommended that the load chain and linkages are lubricated as part of this inspection routine. When repairing Red Rooster air hoists only original Red Rooster products should be used. Only minor repairs such as silencers, safety catches, pendant repairs, replacing shorter lengths of load chain and inspections should be done...
Before carrying out any work on the hoist the main air supply should be turned off and the residual air vented or the hoist run to dissipate the air pressure. Red Rooster hoists normally do not require any adjustment as the brake springs take up any wear and the load limiter and limits should not need adjustment once set. The lubricator should be checked and topped up weekly in normal use or daily when heavily used.
EN818-7 ISO 3077 DIN5684 - 8 + EN818/7 ISO 3077 NOTE: Spark resistant hoists are fitted with KITO nickel plated heavy duty chain or 60 stainless steel chain. Please refer to supplier. When supplied new, only quality chain from a reputable supplier has been fitted to the hoist. Your supplier will be able to offer replacement chain of like quality.

Store in a dry ventilated area. ▪ Secure hoist in a crate or suitable pallet. Transportation - Moving your Red Rooster hoist between locations. Carefully disconnect from suspension point and lower under control to ground level. Be sure that chain collector, valves and trolley drives are not damaged. Carefully lay the pendant on top of the hoist making sure tubes or hoses are not damaged.
▪ When the load chain is dry it may not run freely into the chain collector and over fill the collector, so the chain must be kept lubricated to prevent it running out of the collector. ▪ Make sure the chain collector brackets have not been damaged during installation. ▪ Make sure the chain collector is free to move when the hoist is loaded and un-loaded. ▪ Make sure the bottom hook does not connect with the chain collector. Limit the lifting height of the bottom hook if necessary. ▪ For any assistance required on chain collectors please contact Red Rooster Lifting Ltd.

SIX MONTHLY OFFSHORE INSPECTION Arrange to have the hoist examined by a person specifically trained and experienced in the examination of lifting machines. This can be done by a Red Rooster engineer or an independent competent person. Ensure that the party is operating to a detailed inspection procedure or code of practice. SERVICE We would recommend the hoist is returned every 5 years for a full inspection and service.
Load chain must be to manufacturer’s specification. Special chains are excluded (consult your supplier). Mode of use must be in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendation.

For Europe and many other parts of the world we also offer ATEX Non-electrical equipment certified under the ATEX 2014/34/EU Directive. For both the UK Ex and ATEX this is split into two categories of equipment available from Red Rooster – Group – I mining (I M2 De-energised in an emergency) and group II – Zone 1 + 21 & Zones 2 + 22) The Explosive Protection Level (EPL) has been set when the effective ignition sources are identified and when they become effective in normal operation and in the case of expected malfunctions.

*Red Rooster hoists should only be operated with compressed air. MINING APPLICATIONS In general most standard Red Rooster hoists can be used for underground mining operations along with the surface buildings and services. The equipment is certified for Group I M2 use, so must be switched off / isolated in the event of an emergency. The equipment has to be robust, non- sparking, taking into account the conditions and the handling underground and be built to survive along with explosive protection from Methane gas / dust - Firedamp. The maximum surface temperature of 150°C for coal dust atmospheres will not be reached where a coal dust layer can be...
