CM Cyclone Hand Hoists
The Cyclone Hand Hoist is a highly versatile tool
that can be used to lift loads. The hoist has alu-
minum frame, handwheel, handwheel cover and
gear cover to provide dependable strength at mini-
mum weight. The internal gears are made of high
grade, heat treated steel. Shielded ball bearings are
used at each rotating point in the mechanism. Latch
type, heat treated, forged steel upper and lower
hooks are standard. The load chain is strong and
durable Hoistaloy
®
. A pawl and ratchet, dry-operat-
ing, Weston-type friction brake supplies very posi-
tive load control and will suspend the load at any
point. A Load Limiter is provided on every unit. As a
result, the application of an excessive overload dis-
engages the driving handwheel and prevents hoist-
ing. Note that the Load Limiter is not intended for
use as a scaling device. Removal of the excess load
automatically restores normal hoisting action (see
Figure 1 for specifications of available models).
Cyclone Low Headroom Trolley Hoists
The Cyclone Low Headroom Trolley Hoists (Figure 2,
page 3) are a combination of the Cyclone Hand Hoist
built integral with a rugged trolley to provide better
headroom than that obtained with the standard hoist
and trolley. The basic hoist is similar to the Cyclone
Hand Hoist except the frame, aluminum on the 1/2
through 3 ton units and cast iron on the 4 through 6
ton units, which is designed to provide low headroom
and attachment to the trolley. The trolley has a
rugged frame, cast iron on the 1/2 through 1 ton
units, and steel plates on the 1 1/2 through 6 ton
units. Crowned tread, flanged trackwheels are
provided to minimize rolling friction. Hardened,
pressed steel ball bearing wheels are used on the 1/2
and 1 ton units. Hardened, cast iron wheels with
Timken bearings are used on the 1 1/2 through 6 ton
units. Trolleys are adjustable for operation on various
American standard beams and the 1 1/2 through 6 ton
units are available in a geared type trolley.
