IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Important notices

This single post hoist iscomposed of base frame, post, carriage, lifting arms, cylinders,portable kit and motor unit, etc.
It isdriven by an electro-hydraulic system. The gear pump delivers hydraulic oil tooil cylinders and pushes upwards its piston. The
piston drives the chain to raise the carriage and the lifting arms.
During lifting process, the safety lock will be automatically engaged. Therefore, no slipping will happen in case the hydraulic system
breaks down.

MAINTENANCE
Easy and low cost routine maintenance can ensure the hoist work normally and safely. Following are requirements for
routine maintenance. Frequency ofroutine maintenance is determined by working condition and frequency.
THE FOLLOWING PARTS ARE NEEDED TO BE LUBRICATED
6.1. Daily checking items before operation
The user must perform daily check. Daily check of safety lock system in very important – the discovery of device failure before action
could save time and prevent great loss, injury or casualty.
·Before operation, judge whether the safety locks are engaged by sound.
·Check whether oil hose well connected and whether it leaks or not.
·Check the connections of chain and steel cable and check the power unit.
·Check whether expansion bolts are firmly screwed.
S/N Name
1 chain wheel shaft
2 slider
3 chain wheel shaft

·Check if arm lock works well or not.
6.2. Weekly checking items
·C heck the flexibility of moving parts.
· Check the working conditions of safety parts.
· Check the amount of oil left in the oil tank. Oil is enough if the carriage can be raised to highest position. Otherwise, oil is
insufficient.
·Check whether expansion bolt s firmly screwed.
6.3. Monthly checking items
·Check whether expansion bolts are firmly screwed.
·
Check the tightness of the hydraulic system and screw firm the joints if it leaks.
· Check the lubrication and abrasion circumstance of axial pins, carriages, lifting arms and other related parts and replace in time with
new ones if they failed to work well.
·Check the lubrication and abrasion circumstance of steel cable.
6.4. Yearly checking items
·Empty the oil tank and check the quality of hydraulic oil.
·Wash and clean the oil filter.
If users strictly follow the above maintenance requirements, the hoist will keep in a good working condition and
