LAYING UP THE HOIST
5.1
LAYING UP THE HOIST
Whenever the hoist is unused for a period ( weekends, holidays or in store ), a little preparation will ensure that the hoist operates correctly
and safely, either before being put into service for the first time or when being put back into service after a layup.
SHORT LAY UP PERIOD (2 TO 90 DAYS):
Air hoists should be kept clean, lubricated and stored in a clean and dry location.
When not in use seal off from the air supply inlet and run extra oil through the hoist as per lay up instructions.
Wherever possible keep the hoist protected when in use and installed in an exposed location, protecting controls and hoses from damage.
LONG TERM LAY UP PERIOD (3 MONTHS TO 12 MONTHS):
▪
If the hoist is contaminated with dirt or chemicals, wash with a propriety mild solvent or detergent and thoroughly rinse off with fresh
water. Allow to dry and spray lightly with penetrating fluid.
▪
Lubricate the load chain, limit shafts, safety latches, and hook swivels.
▪
Disconnect the air supply and plug the inlet port.
▪
If required, dismantle the chain collector, pendant, air set and trolley for storage.
▪
Store in a dry ventilated area.
▪
Secure hoist in a crate or suitable pallet.
