Model D4070/D4077 Electric Hoist
MAINTENANCE
GeneralLubrication
Check mounting hardware daily before use for cracks, unsafe wear, deformation, or warping. If damaged or worn, replace it. DO NOT attempt to fix it or continue using it!
Check that the microswitch is functioning daily before use. Check daily for loose pins, rings, screws, wires and safety latches. Tighten or replace any loose items. Check daily for damage or fraying along the length of the hoist lifting cable. Damaged or loose parts may cause the load to fall, which may result in death or serious injury!
Never leave a load or hoisting equipment on the hoist when not in use. This may cause excessive strain on the hoist and cable and may shorten their usable life.
If the hoist becomes dirty, wipe it down with a damp soft cloth and thoroughly dry all surfaces. DO NOT use solvents, chemicals, or other corrosive materials to clean the hoist.
Lubricate the hoist cable with a light oil to inhibit rust and reduce friction, depending on frequency of use and environment. If the cable becomes wet during use, dry and lightly oil it before retracting back onto the spool.
Always DISCONNECT POWER before servicing, adjusting, or doing maintenance to reduce the risk of accidental injury or electrocution.
