2.5 Lift Chains
WARNING!
Risk of accident from non-lubricated and incorrectly cleaned lift chains
Lift chains are safety-critical parts. Lift chains must not show signs of serious
contamination. Lift chains and pivot pins must always be clean and sufficiently
lubricated.
u
The lift chains are cleaned by wiping or brushing. Significant contamination can be
softened by a paraffin derivative such as petroleum.
u
Do not clean lift chains with high-pressure steam jets or chemical cleaning agents.
u
Immediately after cleaning, dry the lift chain with compressed air and apply a chain
spray.
u
Lift chains must be unloaded when lubricated; to do this, fully lower the load
handler.
u
Lubricate a lift chain with particular care around the pulleys.
