OVERRUNNING A SWITCHING
POINT
Move the chain up or down over the set
switching point.
● The set switching point has been overrun.
LUBRICATING THE CHAIN
If the chain is dry and no lubricant can be seen on its
surface, it must be lubricated.
For very dusty or dirty operations:
The lubricant enables dirt to adhere to the chain,
making it stiff and susceptible to greater wear in the
chain hoist. Under these conditions, the chain may
require more frequent replacement instead of
lubrication. Shorten the test intervals.
LUBRICATING THE CHAIN
A well-lubricated chain wears much slower and can be
used considerably longer. The chain must be
lubricated before operation.
Press the LIFT button and allow the chain to
run into the chain box. Lubricate the chain
during its movement.
Lubricant: “Chainlife S”. For details, see
“Lubricants”, page 85.
Apply additional lubricant to the unstressed
chain in the chain box so that it flows into the
joints of the chain links.
