GETTING STARTED - CHECKS BEFORE USE & HOSE SUPPORT BRACKET
1.3 CHECKS BEFORE USE
These checks should be carried out during installation and on a frequent and regular basis thereafter. If the hoist is used daily then it is
 recommendedthattheyarecarriedoutdailyasthecheckstakeonlyminutestocompleteandnotonlyhelpavoidrepairbillsbutsignicantly 
reduce the possibility of an accident or dangerous occurrence. Thoroughly examine the equipment prior to installation to ensure that no
damage has occurred during transit. Hoists and trolleys should not be altered in any way without contacting Red Rooster for clearance, as this
 maya󰀨ectthecerticationoftheunit.
AIR SUPPLY CHECKS:
 ▪ Inletpressure:4to6bar(therewillbepressurelossesacrosstheairsetandonlonghoses)Thesupplypressureshouldnot 
exceed 7 bar.
 ▪ Airow:Checkairowrequirementandminimumhosediameteralsocheckthatsmallborettingsarenotstranglingtheairow.
 ▪ Theltershouldbecheckedregularlyandmanualunitsdrainedofwaterasrequired.
 ▪ THE AIR HOSE SHOULD BE SUPPORTED SO THAT THE WEIGHT OF HOSE IS NOT HANGING FROM THE AIR SET AND
FITTINGS. THE AIR SET IS NOT DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE HOSE. SEE PAGES 7 AND 12 IF A HOSE
SUPPORT BRACKET AND MANIFOLD IS FITTED TO THE HOIST.
 ▪ Theairsupplyshouldbecleanandrelativelydry.Wherethecompressorproducesalotofwateractionshouldbetakentoremove 
the excess water.
 ▪ Checkairconnectionsizeandtypearecompatible.
 ▪ Checksecurityofairhoseconnection.
AIR SUPPLY CONNECTION:
 Everyinstallationisdi󰀨erent,sothecorrectmethodofsupportingtheairhoseshouldbereviewedwhileinstallingthehoist.Thisneedsto 
take into account the weight and size of the hose, obstructions both at deck and hoist level, connections, operating conditions and any likely
movement of the hoist and air hose.
 Thettingsandlterregulatorarenotdesignedtotaketheweightofthehose.
If the air supply hose length is over 10 metres the hose ID should be increased to the next size.
AIR SUPPLY:
 Vanetypeairmotorsaredesignedtofunctionusingclean,dryair.Theinstallationofan‘inline’airserviceunitalthoughessential  
cannot in itself compensate for serious contamination in the air supply. When operating the compressor in moist (humid) or dusty atmospheres
 seektheadviceofyourcompressorsupplierwithregardtothettingofadryerandlter.
AIR PRESSURE:
The hoist is designed to operate best in the pressure range of 5 to 6 bar (72 to 90 p.s.i). The speeds quoted on the manufacturer’s literature
 areobtainableonlyat6bar(90p.s.i)inletpressure.Thehoistwilloperateatmuchreducedspeedatpressuresbelowthisgure.
AIR FLOW:
 Refertothehoistdatasheet,toselectthehosediameterwhichensuresadequateairow.Failuretoprovideadequateairowwillresultina 
pressure drop in the supply line and cause the hoist to stall and the brake to apply until the pressure increases. In addition, the brake will not
release cleanly and will overheat. (Although not in itself a hazard [the brake will fail safe] it may prove frustrating to the operator and a hazard
may arise as a consequence.)
AIR SUPPLY HOSE SUPPORT BRACKET
 Whereahosesupportbracketandmanifoldhavebeenttedtothehoisttotaketheweightofanairsupplyhoseseveralchecksmustbedone.
:
 ▪ Checkthehosehangsfreelyanddoesnotinterferewiththehoistchain.
 ▪ Checkthehoseisclearoftheloadtobelifted.
 ▪ Checkthependanthoseisnotobstructedbytheairsupplyhose.
 ▪ Checktheairhoseissupported.
 ▪ DOuseexclusivelycorrectlyratedandcertiedpneumatichosesandttingsintheairsupplyline.
 ▪ DOsupporttheairlineuptothehoist,asthettingandlterregulatorarenotdesignedtotakealoadandmaynotsupportthe 
weight of the hose.
 ▪ DOmaintaintheinternaldiameter(asperthetablethroughoutthesupplylength)orreducefromthelargerdiametertothe 
smaller diameter in the direction of the hoist.
 ▪ DON’Tusehydraulicttings.Theseoftenhaveareducedoricesizeresultinginadownlinedropinairpressure.
 ▪ DON’Tincreasefromsmallertolargerdiameterorinsertalengthofsmallerdiameterhoseinthesupplylineasthiswillresultin 
 reducedowandpressure.

securely fit slings to the body of the hoist or use the top hook if possible. Do not lift by the controls, valves, or the air set.
MOUNTING THE HOIST
The air hoist is designed as a LIFTING MACHINE and as such is designed exclusively for the lifting loads vertically. Non vertical lifting will
result in premature wear of the chain and chain guide and may result in damage to the limit arms or a failure of the limit arms to operate.
 ▪ Sitethehoistimmediatelyabovetheloadwhichistobelifted.
 ▪ Ensurethatthepointfromwhichthehoistissuspendedhasbeendesignedandtestedtoatleastthesamesafeworkingloadas 
the hoist itself.
 ▪ Ensurethatthesuspensionpointorshackletssnuglyintothebowlofthehoisttophookandthatthesafetycatchclosesto
prevent escape.
 ▪ UseonlycertiedliftinggearwithaSWLinexcessoftheloadtobeliftedtoconnecttotheloaditself.
 ▪ Ensurethattheliftinggeartssnuglyintothebowlofthehoistbottomhookandthatthesafetycatchclosestopreventescape.
 ▪ Ensurethatthecontrollength(pendantorcords)isadequatetoallowtheoperatortostandawayfromtheload,inasafeand 
secure position with the cords or pendant at waist height.
CLOSE HEADROOM WORKING
The lower hook of the TCS hoist includes a swivel arrangement. This allows the load to turn without twisting the chain. However, when
repeatedly handling loads with the bottom hook close to the hoist, especially when rotation of the load is prevented, there is tendency for the
chain to attempt to enter the guide at an angle. This is particularly pronounced on two fall units. If this problem is noticed when doing a trial lift,
a high quality ball bearing swivel should be mounted below the bottom hook of the hoist.
CHAIN COLLECTORS
If the hoist has been supplied with a chain collector bag or bucket, and the chain has been stored within it during shipment, remove all the
chain from the collector by hand, and remove any knots or twists.
 Inallcasescarefullyfeedthechainovertheloadwheelallowingittollthecollectorwithoutanyinterferenceasitemergesfromthewheel. 

model and HOL of the hoist. See additional instructions (Section 6) for large collectors.
1.5 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The reactions on the powered hoist on the support, runway beam or crane should have been taken into account in the design of the structure.
The structure should be at least 25% stronger than when using manual equipment due to the shock loading applied by the operational speeds
and the starting and stopping of the hoist.

GETTING STARTED - HOIST CHECKS & INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.7 HOIST CONTROLS
Air hoists can be controlled by either a pull cord or a pendant control operating the spool valve of the hoist operating raise and lower. The
diagram in section 1.8 shows the set up for both types of control and the location on the hoist body.
Cord or pendant hose lengths should be long enough for the operator to stand away from under the load but still with the cord toggles or the
pendant suspended at a height of around 1 metre from the operating level. Where the controls have to be to the side of the hoist or
where the operator cannot see the load travelling the full range of the lift a banksman should be appointed to assist the operator using a
reliable means of communication.
Both toggles on the cord controls should be marked for correct operation of the hoist. The emergency stop button on the pendant control
should also be marked.
1.8 ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Hook suspension with long chain drops.
Problem:
 Whenalongheavychainistted,andthe‘raise’ispressedwiththehoistinanunloadedcondition,duetothecentrelineofthehoisthaving 
 beena󰀨ectedbytheweightofchain,theupperlimitswitch,mayfailtooperate.Inaddition,theslackloadchainmayonsomemodulesfoul 
the limit lever arms, thus preventing it from returning to the centre (neutral position).
Resolution:
 Ashortlengthofwirerope,6mmdiameter,isttedtothehoistsandbulldoggripshavebeensupplied.
 Suspendthehoistinitsnallocationandwithasmuchchainaspossibleinuse.Applyasmallloadtothehoistandliftitclearoftheground.
Connect the wire rope sling to the support steel alongside the top hook using bulldog grips.
The tension in this sling should be enough to counteract most of the weight of the slack chain produced in the fully raised position, but it must
 notbetensionedsuchthatitiscarryinganyoftheloadsupportedbythehoist.i.e.ifttedcorrectly,inanunloadedcondition,theslingwillbe 
tensioned with the hoist ALMOST in the vertical position. When the load is applied, the tension in the sling will be slack.

LUBRICATION
2.1
Note 1
All Red Rooster hoist chain must be lubricated to prevent wear.
Keeping load chain clean and lubricated will greatly increase the lifetime of the chain and prevent costly replacement. Very little lubricant is
needed and can be easily applied to the chain by cloth, brush or spray.
In areas of high corrosion, plated chain can be used along with special lubricants to prevent corrosion from sea water and spray. Chains used

SAFE OPERATION
3.1 Thecontentsofthissectionaredesignedfortheguidanceofpersonnelusingthehoist.Forthemostpart,theyare‘commonsense’
procedures. Most dangerous occurrences involving lifting machines are not as a result of a defect developing in the machine itself but are as
a result of an error or act of carelessness by the operator. As such, the vast majority of accidents or dangerous occurrences are avoidable. The
operator is responsible for his safety and the safety of others in the area of the hoist.
 Itisfurtherrecommendedthatonlyauthorisedpersonnelshouldbepermittedtousethehoistandthatallsta󰀨shouldbeproperlytrainedand 
have adequate knowledge in both safe use and visual examination.
ALWAYS - follow company procedures, work safely, report faults and comply with regulations.

3.2 SAFETY EQUIPMENT - PPE
Safe systems of work should be appropriate for the working conditions that the hoist is being used in with method statements stating what
thehoistisbeingusedfor,theauthorisationofsta󰀨tooperatehoistsandthePPErequirementsinplace.Ingeneraloveralls,safetyshoes, 
hearing protection and gloves are normal but other sites will require safety glasses and hard hats.
3.3 LIFTING GEAR BELOW THE HOIST
 Whereliftinggearisconnectedintothebottomhookofthehoistitshouldbesizedforatleastthecapacityofthehoistandphysicallytwell 

 Wherealargeritemsuchasaspreaderbeamisusedthismayhaveane󰀨ectontheliftingcapacityofthehoist,sotheSWLshouldbe 
reducedtoreectthis.
3.4 MOUNTING ON TROLLEYS
▪ Ensure that the trolley is properly mounted on the beam and set correctly for the beam with adequate wheel clearance.
 ▪ Ensurethatthestopsforthetrolleymountedontherunwaybeamarecorrectlypositionedandsecurelyinstalled.
 ▪ Ensurethatthetophookorlinkplateofthehoisttsproperlyonthesuspensionpointofthetrolleyandisassembledproperly 

 ▪ Ensurethatthetiebarsarecorrectlyadjustedintheslotswiththeanti-tiltrollercloseunderthebeamwithenoughclearanceto 
allow the trolley to run along the beam.
3.5 OPERATIONAL BREAKDOWN OR ACCIDENT
If an unloaded hoist stops working then it should be removed from location and sent for repair if none of the remedies in the trouble
 shootingguidehaveane󰀨ect.
When the hoist is still holding a load then an additional hoist should be used to take the weight of the load so it can be safely lowered and
the faulty hoist removed for repair. If another hoist cannot be used to lower the load it is possible to release the brake by slackening the
brake cover screws but this should only be done by a RRIUK engineer or after discussions with Red Rooster as it is not always possible or
safe to do so.
 Themainairsupplylinetothehoistshouldbettedwithaneasilyaccessiblevalvetocuto󰀨theairsupplytothehoistincaseof

MAINTENANCE
4.1 The TCS hoists are very fast so suited to production, long height of lift and are built to require little maintenance if they are kept lubricated and
maintained. The maintenance required will depend on daily operating times, the conditions, quality of the air supply and the percentage of the
WLL regularly being lifted. The operators daily checks and the monthly maintenance checks are necessary to check the condition of the hoist.
 Maintenanceworkshouldbecarriedoutbytrainedandqualiedpersonnel.
It is recommended that in the case of the TCS hoist and air trolleys inspections are carried out in accordance with the following
 schedule,althoughthefrequencyofthe‘sixmonthinspection’shouldbeincreasedinhighriskenvironments,aggressiveenvironmentsor 
where the usage is particularly heavy to between one and three months.
EVERY DAY / WEEK (DEPENDING ON USAGE)
 Theitemslistedunder‘checksbeforeuse’inSection1(GettingStarted)ofthemanualshouldbeexamined.
AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH FOR HOISTS IN CONSTANT USE OR EVERY THREE MONTHS LIGHTLY USED UNITS
LOAD CHAIN - Thoroughly examine throughout its length for wear in the links, corrosion, cracks or distortion. If the wear in the links
exceeds that stated in the chart, the chain should be replaced. If there are any visible cracks or distortion the chain should be replaced.
Any wear should be measured and checked against section 10.1.
 BRAKE-Withaloadappliedcheckthebrakee󰀩ciency.Ifthereisanydelayinactuationorslippage,thebrakeisdefectiveandthehoist 
must be thoroughly overhauled before being returned to service.
HOOKS, SWIVELS AND CLAWS - Examine hooks for wear, deformation (refer to chart), nicks and gouges. Ensure that the hooks swivel
smoothly and that the safety claw opens fully and closes under spring tension.
CHAIN ANCHOR PIN - Examine for wear and deformation.
NUTS AND BOLTS - Using suitable spanner and Allen key, check for any loose nuts and bolts.
UPPER AND LOWER LIMIT - Ensure that it functions correctly in both the fully raised and fully (chain lever) lowered positions.
CHAIN COLLECTOR - Check security and condition.
It is recommended that the load chain and linkages are lubricated as part of this inspection routine.
When repairing Red Rooster air hoists only original Red Rooster products should be used.
4.2 Only minor repairs such as silencers, safety catches, pendant repairs, replacing shorter lengths of load chain and inspections should be done
in location after this the hoist should be lowered to ground level and taken to a workshop.
If the hoist is taken out of service it should be sent to an approved repairer to be fully dismantled, repaired and tested.
 OnlyRedRoosterapprovedpartsshouldbettedtothehoistbutgoodqualityEuropeanorJapaneseloadchainandbearingscanbeused 
but other than that only Red Rooster supplied parts should be used.

4.3 SILENCING
 TheTCShoististtedwithaninternalsilencer;thenoiseoutputbeinglessthan83dBatonemetre(thisconformstoE.C.noiseregulations).
TCS-500 & TCS-980
The silencer comprises four nylon pads.
The life expectancy of the silencer correlates closely with the quality of air supplied.
Periodic examination of the silencer is not required, nor is it recommended (see below). As the silencer becomes contaminated a reduced
speed of operation will be noted. At this point the nylon silencer should be cleaned or replaced and the gauze silencer should be changed.
4.4 CHANGING THE SILENCER(S) - see parts list.
TCS-500 & TCS-980
Located at the end of the motor, the silencers are behind the exhaust plate.
ADJUSTMENTS AND MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
 Beforecarryingoutanyworkonthehoistthemainairsupplyshouldbeturnedo󰀨andtheresidualairventedorthehoistruntodissipate 
the air pressure.
Red Rooster hoists normally do not require any adjustment as the brake springs take up any wear and the load limiter and limits should not
need adjustment once set.
The load chain should be checked monthly for lubrication and oiled if necessary. Where the load chain is not lubricated for operational
reasons the chain should be inspected weekly as a dry chain can wear rapidly.
The top and bottom hooks should only be lubricated if required during checks.
The hoist gearbox is greased during assembly or repair and should not need greased during operation.
There are no hazardous substances in Red Rooster hoists.

4.5 FITTING OR REPLACING LOAD CHAIN
The hoist will require to be hung up with an airline connected.
 Thechainstopperwillrequiretobettedatleast13linksfromtheunloadedendofthechain.(Seechainttingdrawing)
The chain must be fed over the pocket wheel from the slack end anchor side with the weld of every second link facing away from the wheel
axis i.e. weld outwards.
Care must be taken not to twist the chain during installation. This is best achieved by holding the live end of the chain as it emerges from the
hoist, if the hoist is reeved on two parts of chain, feeding it through the free limit lock, through the bottom block wheel and again as it emerges,
 thereafterfeedingituptotheanchorpin.Ifthechaincannotbettedtotheanchorwithoutrotatingitthrough90degrees,theendlinkshould 
be removed.
 Runthechainthroughthehoist,leavingashorttailatthe‘slack’end.Anchortheslackendwithouttwistingthechain.
On single fall hoists the live end is fed through the limit lock, through the sleeve and secured in the bottom hook holder by the sleeve pin.
(Thereafter the sleeve is pushed down over the holder to retain the pin and secured by a locking ring)
Feed the chain over the load wheel.
 Itisveryeasytotrapordamagethechainifextremecareisnotexercised.Alwaysexaminetherstlinkofchainafterpassingitovertheload
wheel. If damaged, remove the damaged link(s).
REPLACING EXISTING CHAIN
Cut away the centre portion of a link of the old chain to allow a chain diameter to pass through. Connect the spare link to the last link of the old
 chainandtherstlinkofthereplacementchain.Usetheoldchaintodrawthereplacementchainthoughthehoist.(Retainthesparelinktobe
re-used).
FITTING CHAIN TO AN UNCHAINED HOIST
 Ahandytoolcomprisesalengthofeithersoftinsulatedwire(about2mmdiameter)orapieceofexiblenylontubeofthesamediameter 
approximately 500mm long. To the end of this attach a similar length of strong twine.
 Thesoftwireortubeisfedoverthewheel,itsexibilityallowsittofollowthechainguideandre-emergeattheoppositeside.Thetwine
is attached to the end of the chain and drawn through, pulling the chain against the wheel. By applying power VERY SLOWLY in the
 samedirectionofwinding,theloadchainisdraggedintotherstpocketandovertheloadwheel.Ifanyresistanceisfeltasthechainattempts
to enter the pocket it is imperative that the chain is released from the pocket before trying again. Otherwise the chain will become trapped
and damaged.
Only use quality load chain approved by Red Rooster for use on our hoists.
