2.Before operating the hoist, be sure to observe the following:
a.ALWAYS DISCONNECT HOIST FROM POWER SUPPLY before removing the electrical cover or when making any electrical connection in the hoist or pushbutton station.
b.The ground wire (green colored) of the power cable should always be connected to a suitable ground by means of a screw or clamp. An alligator clip does not make a safe ground connection.
c.When installing a

4.Run the load hook down to its lowest position. Place the slack end of the chain in the chain container. Feed the remainder of the chain into the container by operating the hoist in the “UP” direction to the top limit. This will permit the chain to pile freely and eliminate the possibility of fouling which may occur if the chain is placed in the container by hand.
d. Make sure load chain is not twisted as it travels into the hoist.
e. Operate hoist in a hanging position only. Hoist should be permitted to align itself for a straight line pull. Do not attempt to pull around corners.
f. Read
3.If necessary, lubricate the chain, see LUBRICATION, page 9.
4.Check the function of the limit switches. Before placing hoist in operation, check limit switch adjustment. Operate pushbutton until near stop point and inch into stop limit both top and bottom. If either switch is not correct, adjust according to LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT, page 8.
INSTALLATION OF CHAIN CONTAINER ASSEMBLY (OPTIONAL ACCESSARY)
Refer to Figure 1 and Table 2.
1.Remove dead end screw and washers and let chain hang free.
2.Place chain container bracket flush against housing. Replace washers and screw. Tighten securely.
3.Attach chain container to bracket with two open links and then close the links.
Do not allow load to come in contact with chain container. If this situation exists reset the “UP” limit switch (See LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT, page 8) so that hook block stops below chain container.

OPERATION
This hoist is designed for safe operation within the limits of its rated capacity. It is controlled with the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons of the pushbutton station. There are many safety features to protect the operator from injury due to failure of the hoist. Here are some points which should be observed to maintain safe operation.
1.Do not overload the hoist.
2.Do not make extreme side pulls with the hoist.
3.Operate the hoist only in a hanging position with adequate support.
4.Do not “sling” the load hook and chain around the load. Use an approved sling.
5.Be sure there are no twists in the load chain as it travels into the hoist housing. This condition should be constantly checked on double chain hoists because it is possible for the load block to be “capsized” or turned over one or more times.
6.Before raising a load, always check to see that it is held securely in the hook or sling chains, etc. Raise the load only until the load chain is taut and then double check the rigging before continuing to raise the load.
7.Do not stand beneath a load! Do not move a load in such a manner as to endanger personnel.
8.Do not lower into areas where visibility is obscured unless someone else is guiding the operation.
9.Use common sense at all times when operating a hoist.
10.Do not operate if direction of hook travel is not the same as indicated on button being pushed.
