SAFETY & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The accident prevention act and/or the safety regulations of the respective country for using manual
n
hoists must be strictly adhered to.
Before lifting, inspect the hooks, the load chain, the brake device carefully for any deformations,
n
damage, cracks, wear or corrosion marks. If any defects are found, stop using the chain hoist
immediately.
Ensure that there is enough lubrication on the block.
n
Always place the load on the saddle of the hook and not on the tip of the hook.
n
Only use the chain hoist to lift vertically and not drag a load.
n
Do not lift a load which exceeds the rated capacity of the chain hoist.
n

Do not use the chain as a sling.
n
Do not use the hoist to transport people.
n
HCH5
Do not use when there is a kink in the chain.

MAINTENANCE

2
10 To ensure the chain hoist remains in a safe working order, it should be subjected to regular
inspections by a competent person. Inspections should be annual unless the chain hoist is
228
subjected to adverse working conditions, in which case the inspection should be more regular.
1. After operation, clean the chain hoist and keep it in a dry place to prevent rust and corrosion.
167
2. Clean the chain block annually by purging the parts in kerosene and apply grease to them.
46
3. "O" marks on the two disk gears should be aligned.
4. Firstly, place the rollers of both the left and right bearing on to the inner race of the bearings on the
252
chain sprocket shaft journal. Then put them on to the outer race of the bearings on the side plates.
39
5. While assembling the brake mechanism, care should be taken when bringing together the slanting
teeth of the ratchet disc and the pawl. Make sure that the pawl responds to the movement of the
48
spring. Then turn the hand wheel clockwise after screwing in onto the driving shaft so that it
5.3
presses on to the disc and the plates on the brake seat. When turning the hand wheel
counterclockwise, there should be a space between the disc and the plates.
6. The stay and the right side plate are in transition and care should be taken not to dismantle them.
7. After cleaning and repair, the chain hoist should be tested with and without a load.
8. Keep the friction surfaces of the brake mechanism clean whilst lubricating or operating the chain
block. Inspect the brake mechanism frequently so as to avoid brake failure.
9. For the convenience of maintenance and dismantling, one of the links of the hand chain is open.

These instructions must be read by all users. Following these
instructions carefully will help to avoid accidents, reduce
repair costs and help to increase the lifetime of the chain
hoist.
