3 and 5 Ton Hand Chain Hoists
The load chain must have an odd number of links. After attaching the
chain to the loose end pin, operate in the hoisting direction until the load
end of the chain is approximately 5 feet (1.5M) long. Run the chain
through the hook block (first link around the sheave must stand on edge)
and up to the dead end block. Secure chain to dead end block using the
stud, nut and cotter pin. Refer to Fig. 9.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, check each stage of
reeving the chain to be sure it has no twists. On the
3 and 5 ton units, twisted load chain will cause the
chain to jam in the liftwheel or sheave wheels and
this may break the chain and allow the load to
drop.
Testing
Before use, all altered, repaired or used hoists that have not been oper-
ated for the previous 12 months should be tested by the user for proper
operation. Test the unit without a load and then with a load of 50 pounds
(23Kg) times the number of load supporting chains, to be sure that the
hoist operates properly and that the brake holds the load when the hand
chain is released. Then test with a load of 125% of rated capacity. Hoists
in which load sustaining parts have been replaced should be tested with
a load of 125% of rated capacity by, or under the direction of, an ap-
pointed person and a written report prepared for record purposes.
