3.2.2
Chain Container – Install the chain container on the hoist body as shown in Figure 3-2. To place the
chain into the chain container, feed the chain into the chain container beginning with the free end. Take
care to avoid twisting or tangling the chain. NEVER put all the chain into the container at once. Lumped
or twisted chain may jam against the hoist body activating the friction clutch and potentially damaging
the chain.
