Frequently asked questions

The overload clutch is designed to prevent the hoist from lifting loads that exceed its rated capacity. If the load is too heavy, the clutch will slip and prevent the load from being lifted. It is important to note that the overload clutch is a safety device and should not be used to measure the load. It is important to always know the weight of the load you are attempting to lift before operating the hoist.

The electronic adjustable limit switch is set at the factory to allow for testing and must be reset as part of the hoist start-up procedure. The limit switch arrangement consists of two sensors which protrude into the gear case at the sprocket gear, and a control module. The control module has two buttons for programming set points, an UP and DOWN green LED, and a red ALERT LED.

The frequency for lubrication services will depend on the type of hoisting service that the hoist is subjected to and should coincide with periodic preventive maintenance inspection. Under ordinary conditions, only weekly attention will be necessary for coil chain and monthly attention will be necessary for roller chain. Under hot and dirty conditions, it may be necessary to clean the chain at least once a day and lubricate it several times between cleanings. Thoroughly clean the chain with an oil solvent and re-lubricate by coating it lightly with oil. Make sure that lubricant coats wear surfaces between links. Zinc plated load chain should be cleaned and lubricated daily.
