Basic Safety Information
- Please read the operation manual carefully before using the electric hoist.
- To Reduce the Risk of Electric Shock or Injury, Use Indoors Only.
- The installation position of the electric hoist must be selected at the place that meets the needs and is convenient for operation.
- Regularly check whether the hoist is firmly installed.
- Please do not overload and do not use the hoist when the weight of the lifted object is not clear.
- Do not operate hoist with twisted, kinked, or damaged wire rope. Inspect wire rope carefully before every use.
- During lifting, it is not allowed to pull or lift heavy objects at an angle to avoid danger.
- Do not operate a damaged or malfunctioning hoist. Inspect hoist carefully and test operation before every use.
- Do not lift people or lift loads over people. Falling loads can injure or kill people.
- No one is allowed to stand under the lifting object when lifting the heavy object with the hoist.
- When operating the wire rope, please wear thickened gloves, and do not let the wire rope slip through your hand, so as to avoid slipping or stabbing.
- This electric hoist shall not carry people in any way or be used as an elevator lifting tool.
- The operator should not operate the electric hoist under the condition of drinking, taking medicine or being ill.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
-
Install the electric hoist (A) on the beam with fixing rings (B) and screw/gasket/gasket ring (C), and pay attention to screw tightening.
Note: The installation position must be strong enough to support the load of the electric hoist during operation.
-
It can be installed into single line mode or double line mode as required.
More load is available in double line mode, but will need to be replaced with a new hook in the accessory pack (F).
-
Be sure to tear off the tape wrapped around the rope drum before the machine can be tested. If the machine is tested in a hurry, it may cause the wire rope rewinding and damage the limit frame.
WARNING: Gloves, safety helmet and steel-toed work boots should be worn during installation and use.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Electric hoist after long-term use or improper operation may occur a variety of failures;common failure causes and elimination methods see the following table.

| 1. The power supply is disconnected.
2. The cable connection position is broken or loose.
3. The switch is faulty. 4.Capacitor damage.
5. If the rise button fails, it may be that the limit frame is not reset or the switch is out of order.
6. The emergency stop switch
is not reset.
| 1.Turn on the power. 2.Check the cable connection and repair it.
3. Repair or replace the switch.
4. Replace a Capacitor. 5.Check the limit frame or the travel switch.
6. Reset the emergency stop
switch.
2
| After pressing the remote control button to switch, the motor is noisy and can not start
normally.
|
1. The power supply voltage is too low.
2. Capacitor damage.
3. The remote control switch is in poor contact.
| 1. Adjust the power supply voltage.
2. Replace the capacitor..
3. Repair or replace the
switch.
3| Brake failure or
excessive slip.
| Please contact the sales unit or the company.

6
|
The limit mechanism is faulty and the lifting instruction is contrary to the execution result.
|
Improper operation caused the wire rope to reverse wrap around the drum.
| Press the lift switch to make the hook drop to the bottom and the wire rope completely out of the rope barrel, and then start the
normal work.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Maintenance
- Check the screws fixing the electric hoist regularly.
- Remove dust or corrosive liquid accumulated on the cable in time
- The newly purchased electric hoist is filled with lubricating oil for lifetime maintenance. There may be a small amount of oozing when operating the miniature electric hoist, especially during the first operation. This is normal, do not need to refuel the electric hoist.
- Check the wire rope regularly. If the wire rope is worn, replace it in time.
- Repair or replacement of hoist components must be performed only by a qualified technician using only identical replacement parts with the same rating.
- Note the following regarding specific components:
- Replace damaged or worn hooks. Do not repair them by welding or reshaping.
- Replace or repair all critical parts that are cracked, broken, bent, excessively worn, or missing.
- Replace missing or illegible warning labels.
- Replace pitted or burned electrical contacts as complete sets.
- Keep controller function labels on pendant control stations and master switches legible.
- Do not repair load-sustaining members by welding. Replace them as needed.
- Lubricate all moving parts regularly using grease.
- After maintenance work is completed and before restoring the hoist to normal operation:
- Reinstall guards;
- Reactivate safety devices;
- Remove replaced parts and loose material;
- Remove maintenance equipment.
Frequent Inspection
Perform the procedures in this section BEFORE INITIAL USE and AT LEAST
MONTHLY. Inspection is needed more often for heavily used hoists.
-
Check operating mechanisms for proper operation, proper adjustment, and unusual sounds such as, but not limited to, binding noise of the wire rope and bearing squeal.
-
Check hoist upper limit device without a load on the hook at the beginning of each shift. Exercise care. Run the load block into its limit device at slow speed.
-
Frequent Braking System Inspection
- The braking system must automatically stop and hold up to the rated load if the operating controls are released and in the event of complete power failure.
- Braking systems must limit the speed of load during lowering, with or without power, to prevent uncontrolled or rapid lowering.
-
Frequent Hook Inspection
Check hooks for the following problems:- distortion, such as bending, twisting, or increased throat opening;
- wear;
- cracks, nicks, or gouges;
- latch engagement (if equipped);
- damaged or malfunctioning latch (if equipped);
- hook attachment and securing means.
-
Frequent Hoist Rope Inspection.All ropes should be visually inspected by the operator or other designated person at the start of each shift.
-
Check wire rope reeving.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM HOIST
FAILURE: Do not use damaged equipment. If any defect or damage is noted, have
the problem corrected before further use.
Periodic (Thorough) Inspection
The procedures in this section AT LEAST YEARLY. Inspection is needed more
often for heavily used hoists.
Remove or open access covers to allow inspection of components.
- First, follow all Frequent Inspection procedures. Additionally:
- Check fasteners for evidence of loosening.
- Check load blocks, suspension housings, clevises, yokes, suspension bolts, shafts, gears, bearings, pins, rollers, and locking and clamping devices for evidence of wear, corrosion, cracks, and distortion.
- Check hook retaining nuts or collars, and pins, welds, or rivets used to secure the retaining members for evidence of damage.
- Check load sprockets, idler sprockets, drums, and pulleys for evidence of damage and wear.
- Check the motor brake and load brake for evidence of wear.
- Check electrical apparatus for evidence of pitting or deterioration of controller contacts.
- Check supporting structure or trolley, if used, for evidence of damage.
- Check warning label for legibility and replacement.
- Check end connections of wire ropes for evidence of wear, corrosion, cracks, damage, and distortion.
- Check the hoist and hoist mounting for evidence of missing parts.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM HOIST FAILURE: Do not use damaged equipment. If any defect or damage is noted, have the problem corrected before further use.
Storage Inspection
- A hoist that has been idle for a period of a month or more, but less than a year, must be inspected before being used according to the Frequent Inspection requirements.
- A hoist that has been idle for a period of a year or more, must be inspected according to the Periodic Inspection requirements and then tested according to the procedure in the Testing section below before being used.
Testing
- Before use, test repaired hoists and hoists that have not been used for a year or more.
- Check all functions of the hoist, including lifting and lowering, with the hoist unloaded first.
- After testing in the unloaded state, attach a 200 Ib. load and retest to check proper load control and to check brake operation.
- Test the trip-setting of limit devices under no-load conditions. Test first by hand, if practical, and then under slowest speed. Test with increasing speeds up to maximum speed. Check that actuating mechanisms are located so that they will trip the switches or limiting devices in sufficient time to stop motion without causing damage to any part of the hoist.
