SAFE OPERATION
4.3 SILENCING
The TMH hoist is fitted with an internal silencer; the noise output being less than 80 dB at one metre (this conforms to E.C. noise regulations).
TMH-10T / TMH-15T / TMH-20T
The silencer comprises of two type SS, one type F and a further two type SL in this order.
The life expectancy of the silencer correlates closely with the quality of air supplied.
Periodic examination of the silencer is not required, nor is it recommended (see below). As the silencer becomes contaminated a reduced
speed of operation will be noted. At this point the nylon silencer should be cleaned or replaced and the gauze silencer should be changed.
4.4
CHANGING THE SILENCER(S) - see parts list.
TMH-10T / TMH-15T / TMH-20T
Remove the 5 off M5 hex socket cap screws which retain the exhaust plate. Remove the foam silencers. Replace with the new in the correct
order. Fit exhaust plate then secure in place with the 5 off hex socket cap screws.
ADJUSTMENTS AND MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
Before carrying out any work on the hoist the main air supply should be turned off and the residual air vented or the hoist run to dissipate
the air pressure.
Red Rooster hoists normally do not require any adjustment as the brake springs take up any wear and the load limiter and limits should not
need adjustment once set.
The lubricator should be checked and topped up weekly in normal use or daily when heavily used.
The load chain should be checked monthly for lubrication and oiled if necessary. Where the load chain is not lubricated for operational
reasons the chain should be inspected weekly as a dry chain can wear rapidly.
The top and bottom hooks should only be lubricated if required during checks.
The hoist gearbox is greased during assembly or repair and should not need greased during operation.
There are no hazardous substances in Red Rooster hoists.
