If the same lifting operations are carried out constantly, the switching area from a lifting to a lowering
movement must be given special attention.
Thoroughly effected lubrication of the chain will prolong the life of the chain by approx. 20 times,
compared to dry run with unlubricated chain.
Wash dirty chain with petroleum or a similar cleaner, under no circumstances heat the chain.
If there are environmental influences that foster wear, such as sand, a dry lubricant should be used, e.g.
graphite powder.
When lubricating the chain’s condition of wear should be checked.
CAUTION!
Do not use grease for lubrication of load chain.
Without lubrication, manufacturer's warranty and/or liability will be void.

Pulleys
12.3
Load hook
Check bearings and pulleys yearly
Clean and lubricate the bearings of hooks and pulleys with grease
Slight bearings are maintenance free
When bearings resp. slight bearings are worn of, change the complete pulley
12.4
Gear
Regular checks of lubrication are necessary. The teeth must be cleaned and re-lubricated after approx. 3
years. We recommend to use a lubricant of class EP2 or similar products. In case of severe conditions of
use (e.g. dust, regular lifting of the nominal load,etc.), please shorten maintenance intervals.
12.5
Gear spring pressure brake
During the check, brake lining wear is verified. The brake linings must be replaced when the wear limit is
already reached at one position of the lining, - as this can be the case when wear of the linings is irregular.
CAUTION!
The brake linings must be free from fracture. Avoid oil, grease, dirt and humidity on the brake linings as this
increases wear.
The brake lining for the ratchet lever hoist is tested for the whole product lifetime - under the precondition of
appropriate use - and must only be replaced in case of extraordinary wear.
