Installation
Prior to installing the product, carefully inspect it for
possible shipping da age. Products are supplied fully
lubricated fro the factory. Check oil levels and adjust
as necessary before operating product. Refer to
“LUBRICATION,” p. 13 section for reco ended oils
and lubrication intervals. Lubricate load chain before
operating hoist.

• Product not installed properly may fall or
cause a load to fall resulting in severe
injury or death. Before installation refer
to Product Safety Manual and all safety
warnings pertaining to this product.
CCAAUUTTIIOONN
• Owners and users are advised to
examine specific, local or other
regulations, including American Society
of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and/or
OSHA Regulations which may apply to a
particular type of use of this product
before installing or putting product to
use.
Re ove cover fro shipping crate. Carefully re ove
packing straps. Attach wire rope sling to lifting lugs on
trolley side plates and slowly lift into position.
Attach chain container to hoist with chain container
hardware, bolt chain to bracket under trolley
suspension yoke.
Air Supply
The air supply ust be clean, free fro oisture and
lubricated to ensure opti u otor perfor ance.
Foreign particles, oisture and lack of lubrication are
the pri ary causes of pre ature otor wear and
breakdown. Using an air filter, lubricator and oisture
separator will i prove overall product perfor ance
and reduce unscheduled downti e. Refer to Figure 4,
p. 16.
Refer to Table 2, p. 6 for otor air consu ption and
rated operating pressure. If air supply varies fro what
is reco ended, product perfor ance be di inished.
A lockable shut off valve and a pressure relief valve set
to 125 psi should be installed in the air supply line.
Air Lines
Inside dia eter of air supply lines ust not be less
than 1-1/2 inch. Before aking final connections, all air
supply lines should be purged with clean, oisture free
air or nitrogen before connecting to ain air inlet.
Supply lines should be as short and straight as
installation conditions will per it. Long trans ission
lines and excessive use of fittings, elbows, tees, globe
valves, etc. cause a reduction in pressure due to
restrictions and surface friction in lines.
Air Line Lubricator
Always use an air line lubricator with these otors. The
lubricator ust have an inlet and outlet at least as large
as inlet on otor anifold.
CCAAUUTTIIOONN
• Lubricator must be located no more than
10 ft. (3 m) from motor.
• Shut off air supply before filling air line
lubricator.
The air line lubricator should be replenished daily and
set to provide 3 to 9 drops. Refer to Table 4, p. 13. A
fine ist will be exhausted fro control valve when air
line lubricator is functioning properly.
Air Line Filter
It is reco ended that an air line strainer/filter be
installed before the lubricator to prevent dirt fro
entering the otor. The strainer/filter should provide
20 icron filtration and include a oisture trap. Clean
the strainer/filter periodically to aintain its operating
efficiency.
NNOOTTIICCEE
• When air filter is used ensure it allows air
to pass through at products rated scfm.
Refer to Table 2, General Specifications.
Air Pressure Regulator
If an air pressure regulator is used, install between
lubricator and filter.
Moisture in Air Lines
Moisture that reaches the air otor through air supply
lines is a pri ary factor in deter ining the length of
ti e between service overhauls. Moisture traps can
help to eli inate oisture. Other ethods, such as an
air receiver which collects oisture before it reaches
otor, or an after-cooler at co pressor that cools air to
condense and collect oisture prior to distribution
through supply lines, are also helpful.
Mufflers
Ensure ufflers are installed in hoist and trolley and
control valve exhaust port. Check ufflers periodically
to ensure they are functioning correctly.
Shut Off Valve
Refer to the Product Safety Infor ation Manual for
