Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the hoist is securely attached to a rated anchor point capable of supporting at least the load weight plus a safety margin.
- Connect the upper safety hook to the anchor point and the lower safety hook to the load.
- Verify that the load is centered and the hooks are properly seated.
- For loads under 30kg, allow up to 2 seconds for the brake to fully engage after initial tension.
Compatibility:
This hoist is designed for general lifting and pulling applications. It is compatible with standard lifting points and structures that meet the required load capacity. Ensure your anchor points and rigging accessories are rated appropriately for the load.
Care:
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the hoist before each use for any signs of wear, damage to the chain, hooks, or casing. Check for proper lever operation.
- Cleaning: Keep the hoist clean. Use a dry cloth to wipe away dust and debris. Avoid using lubricants on the braking mechanism.
- Storage: Store the hoist in a dry environment, away from corrosive elements, when not in use.
- Maintenance: Refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for periodic professional servicing. Do not attempt to repair the braking system yourself.
