lift the maximum weight at the maximum lift speed.
The air supply port on the hoist motor is 1/2B.
A 1/2B air delivery line from the plant supply is acceptable if 10m or less.
Runs over 10m should be made using 3/4B air lines.
The air filter, regulator, and line oiler ( in that order, beginning at the plant supply ) should be
plumbed as close to the air hoist as practical. Installing a drain valve in the lowest point in the
supply is also highly recommended. Set the air lubricator to deliver 4 6 drops per minute at full air

ＲＥＣＥＩＶＩＮＧ ＨＯＩＳＴ
After opening packaging, check that all parts are present and undamaged. Check the specification
plate on the hoist to confirm the hoist lift rating is correct per your purchase order.
FAH chain hoist is shipped fully assembled. Check that all shipping packaging is removed from
the hoist, particularly in and around the gear mechanisms and lift chains. Remove all tape, wire,
and other foreign materials from the chain. The hoist is then ready to install the pull cord or
pendant handle.
ＩＮＳＴＡＬＬＩＮＧ ＡＴＴＡＣＨＭＥＮＴＳ
Install the pull cord or pendant handle to the hoist body. The pull cord or air tube is color-coded
as shown below.
ＷＡＲＮＩＮＧ
Improperly installing air lines may lead to hoist movement different
than control indication. For maximum safety do not operate hoist with
improperly connected air lines.
ＡＴＴＡＣＨＩＮＧ ＡＩＲ ＬＩＮＥＳ
Prior to installing air line to motor, open the supply and flush out line.
ＣＡＵＴＩＯＮ

Rev.1 13/12/16
４．ＩＮＩＴＩＡＬ ＯＰＥＲＡＴＩＯＮ
After confirming that all hoist movements are correct, SLOWLY raise and lower the hoist the full
travel distance five times while closely observing hoist. Hoist motor should operate smoothly with
no jerking or unusual sounds. If difficulty is encountered, contact your local dealer or
FUJI INDUSTRIAL TECHNIQUE CO., LTD. before placing hoist into service.
FAH hoist is equipped with a " chain stopper " that closes the air supply to the hoist motor
when the hook reaches the maximum up or down position. Test the function of the chain stopper
by slowly raising and lowering the hook to the maximum positions.
ＣＡＵＴＩＯＮ
Do not operate hoist with the valve lever out of position or the chain stopper inoperative.
５．ＲＯＵＴＩＮＥ ＯＰＥＲＡＴＩＯＮ
1.Check load weight. It must not be over the hoist system rating.
2.On double fall hoists it is possible for the hook to rotate through the chain loop,
causing a twist in the chain. Always inspect for chain twist before attaching hook to load.
3.Sling load properly.
4.Place sling lifting eye in hoist hook and close hook latch.
5.Check that sling and/or rigging has not shifted and the hoist is located directly
over the center of balance of the load.
6.Remove all slack in lift chain.
7.Increase tension in the lift chain until the hoist is about to lift load.
8.Check again that the load is properly slung, directly under hoist ,and will not suddenly swing
or twist as the load is fully supported by hoist.
9.Lift load an inch or two above ground and stop. Observe load for a few moments.
Look for signs that the load or hoist system is unstable, or anything else that may indicate
a problem is developing.
10.If the hoist is mounted to traveler, lift load to the traveling height. Lift only to the height
necessary to safely clear all obstacles.
11.Move load to destination professionally. Do not move load over people, dangerous or hazardous
equipment, or materials.

-5-
Rev.1 13/12/16
12.Lower load at destination. Wait for a moment or two before reversing load direction
if changing directions.
13.Slowly allow weight to shift from hoist to ground or new support. Do not approach load until
all tension is out of chain and sling is loose. Be prepared for load to shift until it is
determined the load is stable on the new support.
14.If support is inadequate for load and collapses, causing a sharp shock to the load chain and hoist,
do not re-lift load until hoist system, including chain is inspected for damage. Note all such
severe shock loading of hoist system in Operator's Log.
６．ＭＡＩＮＴＥＮＡＮＣＥ
1.Store hoist in clean, dry environment.
2.Although oiling chain is not mandatory, it will extend chain life.
3.Allow only trained and experienced personnel to service hoist.
4.Check brake operation frequently.
5.Inspect chain and lower hook after lifting a maximum weight load.
6.Annually the hoist should be disassembled, inspected and cleaned using Kerosene or
similar product. Re-lubricate using grease suitable for chain hoists.
7.Test hoist with no load after all service.
７．ＬＵＢＲＩＣＡＴＩＯＮ
･The hoist motor is lubricated each time the hoist is used by the air line lubricator.
･Do not operate the hoist if the lubricator is not functioning or is out of oil.
･The gearcase section in the hoist body contains bearings and gears packed in grease.
Under normal operating conditions the bearings and gears are lifetime lubricated.
･If the hoist is used in heavy or severe service,the hoist must be inspected and overhauled
every 6 months.
Suitable grease for repacking the gearcase section.
･Lubricate the chain and chain wheel periodically with a light oil suitable for chain hoists.
･If hoist is idle for over 30 days it may be necessary to remove the air supply line and spray
lubricant into the port to loosen up hoist motor. Operate hoist regularly to maintain smooth
operation.

Periodic adjustment is required to maintain
hoist brake performance. Adjust the brake
using the following procedure. Refer to
the illustration to identify the various
components and critical dimensions.
The brake is engaged by the brake spring.
To release the brake, the valve lever moves
along the brake cam, rotating the brake adjuster
to reduce the force on the brake shoes.
Set the brake adjuster to achieve a clearance
between the adjuster and brake cam of 0.5 1mm.
～
Measure the distance between the head of
the brake bolt and the brake shoe. Turn the brake
bolt nut to achieve a clearance of 27 30mm.
～
Replace the brake shoes if the brake is unable
to hold a suspended load. Do not overtighten
brake bolt nut as the spring may be permanently damaged.
