Figure 11: Worn and Damaged Wire Ropes - Replacements Required
c. Replacement hoist cables (wire ropes) can be obtained directly from Jaypro, or from a qualified
wire rope manufacturer or supplier. Cables are 5/16” 7/19 Galvanized Cable with one end
terminated with a flemished eye splice and galvanized thimble, and a 5/16” safety shackle.
Larger size shackles can be used as long as they fit through end termination of cable and/or
eyebolt or other connection point (as installation method dictates).
6. Electric Hoists (Winches)
a. Hoist is maintenance free and should provide years of repeated reliable service, barring damage
from other equipment or electrical surge or other problem. Unit should, however, be inspected
regularly and if there is any sign of wear on the visible internal components a qualified service
technician should be called in for further study.
b. Inspect all attachment hardware for both the winch and the cable (in the case of the double mat
hoist, the terminated loop end of the cable will be attached to the body of the winch). Retighten
or replace all hardware as necessary.
7. Sling and Straps
a. Inspect sling and integrated straps regularly for wear and/or torn fabric, or separating sewn
seams. Replacement slings can be ordered from Jaypro directly, and are offered in several color
options. Call factory for more information.
8. Service Plan & On-Site Maintenance Inspection
a. A thorough yearly inspection is recommended for entire system of hoists, cables, controller,
wiring, etc. If there are no qualified personnel on site who can do this work, it is recommended
that you retain the services of a maintenance technician who is experienced with this type of
equipment. You can research the availability of such a service locally or call Jaypro directly for
a factory representative recommendation.
