Remark : For larger Capacity hoists (7.5t and larger), refer to the ERML-9806-MC manual.
The gear case does not contain oil at time of delivery. Remove the oil plug and pour all the gear oil, packed
with the hoist, into the gear case by using the pot nozzle, and reinstall oil plug.
The specified gear oil is allowed for the ER hoist.

Handling the oil cap for the mechanical brake combined with friction clutch
In case of the mechanical brake combined with friction clutch, the oil cap
as shown in Fig.A is located on the side of the gear casing.
Before hooking up the hoist, pull the oil cap arm to expose a few mm of
the inner part of it or pull off it to maintain the air path to the outside of
the gear casing.
When transferring the hoist, unhook the hoist and push it back into the
original position because inclining the hoist too much while transferring
may cause oil leakage.
