How to install the chain
Installing the chain into the hoist needs experience and is a difficult procedure. We recommend that a
service facility perform this procedure.
But if the customer must assemble the chain into hoist, please obey the caution points and proceed as
follows.
WARNING
;
・
When connecting the end of the chain to the hoist, make sure the chain is not twisted when
assembling the chain through the
under hook block.
If the chain is twisted and assembled, the chain will break and may result in personal injury.
①
Arrange the chain (We recommend Toku Genuine chain. The total Chain link quantity must be odd
number. )
②
Suspend the hoist and attach a wire to the end of the chain.
③
Operate the hoist, adjust the chain sprocket as shown in the diagram below.
④
Feed the wire into the chain opening on the lower side of the hoist.
⑤
Pull the wire and feed the chain into the hoist from the vertical link, and allow the chain to contact the
sprocket. Make sure at this time that the weld on the chain link is facing the outside.
⑥
Continue to pull the wire and operate the air hoist at slow speed (Down mode) and allow the chain to
slowly feed into the hoist. At this time make sure the chain does not jam into the sprocket and guide area.
If the chain does get jammed into this area, the chain and the internal parts must be inspected.
⑦
Pass the chain through the under hook block as below diagram.
⑧
Remove steel wire from the chain. Assemble chain end at loading side as below diagram.
⑨
Assemble chain end at free side. During this process, be careful not to twist chain.
