this is not mandatory.
If the yearly service and

performed, the warranty
is null and void.
To keep the hydraulic
system in good working
condition, oil changes
are required every 2
years or 4,000 cycles.
After 10 years of service,
remove the balance
cables from the hoist,
clean and inspect them
to ascertain
serviceability, replace if
required. If the hoist is in
a high working or
extreme environment,
the balance cables
should be replaced.
Note: Service intervals are based on an average operation of 8 lifts per day, 5 days per week, 50 weeks per
year (2,000 cycles). If operation cycles are more frequent, the service and inspection frequency should
reviewed and set at an appropriate level with your Technician. The intervals shown are the minimum time
periods for inspections.
