    Why is my KITO ED brake slipping?
    • R
      Ralph MyersAug 1, 2025
      If your KITO Chain Hoists experiences brake slippage, it might be due to several reasons. The motor could be demagnetized from overuse, in which case you should replace it. Another cause could be using the wrong gear oil, so replace it with the specified type. Finally, the clutch brake might be deteriorated, requiring you to replace the mechanical brake set with a friction clutch.

    Why is lifting/lowering speed too slow on my KITO ED?
    • R
      Randy HernandezAug 5, 2025
      If your KITO Chain Hoists is experiencing slow lifting or lowering speeds, there are several potential causes. First, check for voltage drops and ensure you are using the rated voltage. A deteriorated speed control function in the controller could also be the culprit, requiring a replacement of the controller or the entire control panel set. Additionally, a deteriorated clutch brake function could be the cause, necessitating a replacement of the mechanical brake set with a friction clutch. Finally, make sure you are not overloading the hoist and are operating within the rated load.

      David HornAug 10, 2025
      If your KITO Chain Hoists is not lifting or lowering, several issues could be the cause. The motor might be burned out from excessive use, in which case it should be replaced, ensuring it's used under rated conditions. Check for abnormal voltage or voltage drops and ensure operation under the rated voltage. A rectifier abnormality could also be the reason, requiring a rectifier replacement. Wiring abnormalities should be normalized. Finally, verify that the power cable or push-button cord is properly connected or replace them if disconnected.

    What to do if I get an electric shock from my KITO ED?
    • L
      Lindsay BenitezSep 12, 2025
      If you experience an electric shock from your KITO Chain Hoists, it might be due to accumulation of moisture or foreign matter on electrical instruments; remove any such substances. Alternatively, improper grounding could be the cause, so ensure correct grounding is secured.

    How to fix oil leakage in KITO ED?
    • T
      Tina MillerAug 18, 2025
      If your KITO Chain Hoists is leaking oil, check for a defective gear case packing or oil seal and replace it. Also, inspect the assembly bolts and tighten them to the normal torque if they are loosened. Finally, ensure the oil plug is fastened securely.

    Why is my KITO ED Chain Hoists only lifting or lowering?
    • S
      Savannah MartinezAug 22, 2025
      If your KITO Chain Hoists is not lifting or lowering in one direction, it could be due to brush wear, requiring a brush replacement. Another possibility is chain guide wear, which means the chain guide should be replaced. If lifting is impossible, check for overload and ensure you operate within the rated load. Lastly, a defect or disconnection in the push-button cord could be the cause, so replace the cord.

    Why does my KITO ED make a clicking sound when lifting?
    • E
      Eileen RichmondAug 27, 2025
      If you hear a clicking sound from the load chain during lifting with your KITO Chain Hoists, it is likely due to wear of the load sheave, which should be replaced.
