Gas Engine
• Inspect the gas motor for any external damage. Dents and broken parts on the gas engine
may suggest that the hoist has been dropped or abruptly impacted. Such wear can lead to the
damage of other hoist components.
• Inspect and clean the gas engine thoroughly to remove dirt and debris from the cylinder area
and carburetor to prevent overheating.
• Inspect and clean as necessary the air cleaner element in hot water and soap. Do not use
gasoline or solvents for cleaning. Blow dry with air.
• Inspect for and repair any fuel leaks.
• Inspect for loose or missing fasteners and tighten or replace as necessary.
• Inspect oil level in the gas engine crankcase per the supplied engine manual.
• Inspect, gap and/or replace the spark plug as necessary.
• Inspect and clean the fuel filter as necessary.
• Remove any carbon deposits from the muffler and exhaust port.
• Inspect throttle cable and foot control for proper operation.
Labeling & Instruction Manual
• Inspect the capstan hoist labeling to ensure it is present and readable. Replacement labels can
be obtained from the manufacturer.
• Read, understand, and follow all labels and the instruction manuals.
Gear Box
• Inspect the gearbox for any external damage. Dents to the gearbox may suggest that the hoist
has been dropped or abruptly impacted. Such wear can lead to the damage of other hoist
components.
• Inspect the gearbox for any fluid leaks around the mounting flange, beneath the drum or from
the motor.
• Test the capstan hoist under a no-load condition to observe the gearbox for excessive grinding,
hitting and/or vibration.
