DANGER: Before installing, removing, inspection, or performing any maintenance on a
hoist, the main switch shall be de-energized. Lock and tag the main switch in the de-
energized position in accordance with ANSI Z244.1. Follow other maintenance procedures
outlined in this manual and ASME B30.16.
2.1 General
Prior to installation, the unit shall be checked thoroughly for damage during shipment or handling at the job
site.
Each complete electric chain hoist is load tested at the factory at 125% of the nameplate-rated capacity.
All hoists are designed for the type of mounting specified by the purchaser. The adequacy of the supporting
members (monorail beams, cranes, hangers, supports, framing, etc.) is the responsibility of user / owner and
shall be determined or verified by qualified personnel.
Read the instructions contained in this manual and the
LoadMate® Electric Chain Hoist Operator’s
Manual
as well as any other related manuals. Observe the warning tags attached to the unit before the
installation is started.
2.2 Lubrication
The hoist gear case comes completely pre-lubricated with grease.
Note: Open trolley wheel gearing has not been greased at the factory. See the trolley manual for proper
gear lubricant to use before installing hoist.
The load chain requires lubrication prior to first use. Chain lubricant is included with shipment of each new
chain hoist.
