Service and maintenance
Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 2 before servicing the Winch 50.
Warning! Disconnect the Winch from AC mains power and allow cooling down for at
least 10 minutes before handling.
Warning! Refer any service operation not described in this user manual to a
qualified service technician.
Attention! Interval of inspections should be determined according to the frequency
of use and the working scenario of the winch.
Attention! If the wire runs in an angel the performance degrades and it causes the
wire to wear down faster; and shortens the life time of the wire significantly! Wire
damage caused by mounting the winch in an angle is not covered by the product
warranty.
Attention! Signs of malfunction or poor operation should always lead to an
inspection of the winch, and the winch should be taken out of operation until the
error is eliminated.
Maintenance plan
The results of all the regular inspections are to be documented and kept available at
the company. The written result of the last inspection must be kept available at the
site of operation, e.g. by an inspection sticker on the winch showing the date of the
inspection, the basis of the inspection and the name of the inspector.
Before every use and weekly
Every time when rigging the winch, before running the winch – and at least every week
when the winch is in use:
−
Check that the winch is safely and correct installed/mounted
−
Check that the winch’s load and LEDs are visible from the operating station
−
Check the entire length of the wire rope for bends, crushed areas, broken, or
cut cord, corrosion and other damages.
−
Check the wire ferrule crimp and thimble
−
Check all limit switches.
−
Check the emergency stop.
−
Check that the wire is winded neatly on the drum.
−
Check that the load is securely mounted with approved fastening
Monthly
At regular intervals – but at least every month when the winch is in use:
−
Check the mounting bolts for damages and proper fastening.
−
Clean the grid of the ventilator and air outlet
−
Control that the overload is correct.
−
Change damaged parts according to this manual.
−
Check the electric fastening of electronic equipment.
−
Check all conductors in the lifting cable rope for conductivity
