Installing Chain Container

Your hoist is supplied with a canvas chain container
(Figure 3) designed to fit the particular length of chain.
If a different length chain is ever installed on this hoist, the
chain container must be replaced by one of proper size.
Do not overfill chain container.
If chain should overfill and begin to fall, the entire
chain container may empty without warning, resulting
in serious personal injury or property damage.
To assemble the chain container to the hoist:
1.
Hang hoist in position on the I-Beam or trolley. Do not
install chain container yet. Allow slack side and load
side of chain to hang freely from hoist.
2.
Apply power to the hoist and press the DOWN button
until the lower limit switch is tripped.
3.
Check the chain container to ensure that the seam is
inside the bag. The bag must not be inside out.
4.
Insert bracket prongs into interior bag slots (Figure 3)
as far as they will go.
5.
Push the bracket down into the bag, making sure the
flaps are raised (Figure 4).
6.
Push the flaps over and down until they are secure
(Figure 5).
7.
Remove the screw and washer holding the end chain
to the hoist (Figure 6). Mount the bracket of the chain
container in that location as shown in Figure 7.
8.
Put the chain stop into the container (Figure 7) and
operate the hoist to bring the load hook up until the
upper limit switch is tripped.
9.
Check the chain to ensure that all the non-loaded chain
is completely in the container.
Do not put chain into the chain
container by hand! By not following the above steps,
the chain can become twisted or kinked and can
damage the hoist.
