7.1.3 Inspection, Maintenance & Testing
tirak ™ hoists and blocstop™ BSO secondary brake shall
be returned to an Authorized Tractel Repair Center for
periodic maintenance after every job and at least after
250 hours of operation.
In any case, periodic maintenance must occur every 12
months/1 year from date of being put into service or 12
months/1 year from the date of the prior inspection.
tirak™ hoists and blocstop™ BSO secondary brake must
be inspected more frequently and at least every 6 months
if subjected to harsh or dirty environments or freezing
conditions, or immediately if they fail any operation or
inspection on job site.
In the event of an overspeed triggering of the blocstop™

brake are possible, and the blocstop™ BSO secondary
brake must be immediately inspected by an Authorized
Repair Center.
A signed and dated inspection record should
be maintained for each tirak™ hoist and each
blocstop™ BSO secondary brake device.
If a
gearbox oil change
is necessary, take one of the
below speci
fi
ed oils according to the temperature range,
the hoist usually will be used in.
Quantities required
:
XE 300 P-Series: 1.4 litres
XE 500/600/700/1020/1030 P-Series: 2.0 litres
TE 1020 P-Series: 2.0 litres
7.2 Maintenance
7.2.1 tirak
™
Hoist
(1) Daily check the primary and BSO secondary brake.
(2) Daily check for visible part damage.
(3) Keep wire ropes clean and lightly lubricated to prevent
abnormal wear of the wire rope driving mechanism.
7.2.2 Wire Ropes
(1) Use only wire ropes, which meet the manufacturers
speci
fi
cations. For details see pages 7 and 11.
This will ensure the reliable function of the hoist.
(2) To warrant maximum lifetime we recommend:
– The wire rope must be unreeled and reeled in a
straight line.
– Keep wire ropes clean.
– Lubricate wire ropes regularly with a rag soaked
with oil.
– Never let the wire ropes rub against sharp edg-
es.
– Always see that the wire rope outlet is not
obstructed.
– Let the free wire rope end untwist to prevent
wire rope from making loops.
– If the wire rope changes direction, it should be
guided by sheaves or rollers to avoid damage.
