CATEGORY
A regular program of preventive maintenance for your
planetary hoist is strongly recommended to minimize
the need for emergency servicing and promote safe,
reliable hoist operation. The user of Braden products is
responsible for hoist inspection, testing and mainte-
nance with frequency dependent upon the severity of
the hoist duty cycle and thoroughness of the preventive
maintenance program in effect.
A record of written, dated and signed inspections, load
tests, maintenance and repairs or modifications must be
kept readily available in an appropriate location for a
minimum of five years.
Inspections procedures for hoists are divided into five
general categories based upon the hoist usage or duty
cycle, which in turn determines different, appropriate
intervals for inspections. The usage categories must be
assigned by the hoist user/owner on a consistent unit-
by-unit basis. The five hoist usage categories are as fol-
lows:
Idled : - The hoist has not been used for three months.
Infrequent Usage - The hoist is used less than ten
hours per month based on a three month average.
Moderate Usage - Hoist used 10-50 hours per month
based on a three month average.
Heavy Usage - Hoist used 50-200 hours per month.
Severe Duty - Hoist is operated more than 200 hours
per month OR where 50% of the lifts exceed 75% of the
Braden rated capacity for the hoist.
The following chart lists the inspections that are
required for each type of usage category.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Any time a hoist exhibits erratic operation and/or
unusual noise, the hoist must be taken out of service
until it is inspected and serviced by a qualified techni-
cian. Continued operation of a hoist with a defect in a
critical component may lead to loss of load control,
property damage, injury or death.
