Manual
Read this manual carefully before using the Smart Hoist. Improper handling can be
dangerous!
Use
The extremely low headroom, light and easy to mount Smart Hoist is intended to be
mounted on a beam to lift and carry a load that can be displaced along the beam and
hoisted up and down. It is especially well suited for cramped spaces.
Description
Svero's Smart Hoist 22 is mostly made of aluminum (side-plates, suspension bolt, holder,
covers and chain hoist casing) and hard impact resistant fiberglass reinforced plastic
(wheels), and is therefore very lightweight.
The design where the lifting function is fully integrated with the horizontal movement,
means that the minimum headroom is very low, and that the load-hook is the lowest
point of the structure, without any other part of it obstructing the possibility to fully utilize
the low headroom.
The Smart Hoist can be adapted for beams with flange widths between 120 and 180 mm.
It is delivered prepared for a 120 mm beam, but by adding spacers (included) it can be
adapted for 140 mm, 160 mm and 180 mm beams. The suspension bolt has a square
cross section and conical holes to fit the stop screws (Pic. 13). Through this design, the
suspension bolt is fixed to the side-plates. Also the holder is fixed with a stop screw at
the center of the suspension bolt, to facilitate the centering of the holder under the beam.
Furthermore, the tread of the wheels is both cylindrical and conical (the outer part), which
make it suitable both for beams with even-thickness flanges (IPE, HEA, HEB) and for

3
inclined flanges (INP). The load is distributed on the four points on the beam where the
tread of the wheels meets the beam. The distance between these points is 130 mm on
each side.
The Smart Hoist is manufactured with both a falling down protection, in case of wheel
breakdown, and a climbing protection, so that the wheel flanges can’t climb onto the
beam's flange, in case of a lop-sided load. Both of these also work as bumpers.

Mounting
It is a quick and simple operation to mount the Smart Hoist, that is provided in three
parts, on a beam. The parts are one side-plate with a hoisting unit fixed in a cover (Pos.
1), another side-plate with a cover (Pos. 2), and a suspension bolt (Pos. 3) with a holder
(Pos. 4), with an external guide wheel fixed in the middle of it. At delivery the Smart
Hoist is prepared for a 120 mm beam.

2. Insert the end of the suspension bolt (Pos. 3) into the hole of the side plate with
the hoisting unit (Pos. 1) according to Pic. 8. One of the corners of the suspension
bolt is chamfered to fit into the hole in the side plate. In this way, the conical holes
automatically will face down (Pic. 3).

3. Position the load-chain coming out of the hoisting unit on the external guide-wheel
(Pos. 6 on Pic. 3) and make sure that it is not twisted. Make sure that the Holder
on the suspension bolt, is aligned with the center of the hoisting unit, so that the
load-chain can run in a straight line from the hoisting unit to the external guide-
wheel (Pic. 9). Fasten the stop screw lightly with a 4 mm Allen key (Pic. 10).

5. Position the side of the Smart Hoist with the hoisting unit fixed to it, on the beam
and mount the side plate with cover (Pos. 2) on to the other end of the suspension
bolt (Pos. 3). Slide this side plate against the lower flange of the beam and center
the Holder (Pos. 4 on Pic. 3) under the beam (Pic. 12). The distance between the
flange of the wheels on the side plates and the lower flange of the beam shall be
1 - 2 mm on each side.

6. Fasten the stop screw for the side plate with cover (pos. 2 on Fig. 2) lightly, in the
same way as in Pic. 10 above.
7. Check the centering of the Holder and the clearance between the beam flange and
the wheel flange. Tighten the stop screws. The top of the screws should now be
level with the surface of the side plate (Pic. 13). The stop screws are prepared
with a thread-locking fluid so that they can’t loosen because of vibrations caused
when moving the Smart Hoist along the beam. You should be able to screw the
stop screws in and out a number of times without loss of performance, but always
make sure that the thread-looking fluid is working. Otherwise add looking fluid.

Now the Smart Hoist is ready for use.
Safety instructions
•Check the function of the Smart Hoist before use. See Daily checks pages 12, 16.
•Check that the beam
ohas sufficient carrying capacity
ois securely anchored
ohas end stops
odoesn’t have more than a 0,3 % slope
othe beam flange, on which the wheels rolls, is clean and free from obstacles
•Do not load more than the Working Load Limit (WLL).
•Make sure nobody is under a hanging load!
•The position of the load must not deviate more than 5 degrees from a vertical line
from the Suspension point of the Smart Hoist to the floor.
•Handle the Smart Hoist carefully. Do not push the Smart Hoist at high speed along
the beam.
•The Smart Hoist must not be used for lifting or transporting people.
•Do not leave a suspended load unattended.
•Do not use the chain hoist for welding work where it is exposed to welding spatter
or current.
•Only hand power from a single person is permitted on the hand chain. If the chain
feels too heavy, use a hoist with higher capacity or reduce the load.

•Do not step onto a hanging load.
•The Smart Hoist must not be used for pulling loads.
•The hoist must not be subjected to dynamic stresses, for example where a load
connected to the Smart Hoist is launched from a height.
•The Smart Hoist is designed for use in the temperature range -20 to +60 °C.
•Check the installation regularly.
NB
No bending stresses may be applied to the Smart Hoist or it’s hooks or load chain.
Raising/lowering
Check that the load is not anchored to the floor/ground or is otherwise fixed before
making the lift. Ensure that the load chain hangs vertically and has no kinks. Only use
approved straps and slings. The hand chain must also be in good condition and easily
accessible. The load is raised or lowered by pulling the hand chain in either direction.
Attachment of loads
Check the equipment before use. Improper attachment of loads can be highly dangerous
(see Figs. 3 a –3 e).

Combined lifts
Combined lifts present special risks. This is where two or more hoisting units are used
simultaneously on the same load. Danger to persons and risk of material damage can
arise through dynamic stresses and uneven load distribution causing overload on
individual hoists. Combined lifts must therefore be supervised by a competent person
with experience in this type of lift.

Daily checks
After every working day on which the Smart Hoist has been used, the following should be
checked:
•Is the Smart Hoist deformed or otherwise damaged, visible or not? Are any parts
missing?
•Are the hooks intact or have any hook openings opened up? Are the hook latches
undamaged and functional?
•The load chain must be undamaged, i.e. no signs of wear and no deformed or
otherwise damaged links.
•The load chain must not be kinked or twisted.
•The hand chain must also be in good condition.
•The brake function must be intact.
In the event of faults or failures, the hoist must be repaired and carefully checked by a
specialist before reuse.
Inspection and maintenance
Should always be performed by authorized personnel or Svero.
Periodic checks
Periodic checks are normally carried out yearly to detect and remedy any faults. If
required (e.g. high frequency of use), more frequent checks may be carried out. See
“Checklist for periodic checks” on page 16. Measure hooks and load chain to detect any
changes in shape.
Checks of load-hook (see Fig. 4 and Table 3)
Opening dimension A on the hooks is important. A hook with an opening larger than the
maximum dimension (A max) has been exposed to overloading or overheating. It
therefore does not have the necessary load capacity. The hooks may also have been
exposed to long-term wear (dimension B).

Hooks must be discarded and replaced if:
•The maximum A value is exceeded (according to Table 3)
•The minimum B value falls short (according to Table 3)
•The hook shows signs of cracking
•The hook is deformed or otherwise damaged
Defective hooks must be replaced before using the chain hoist again.

Checks of load chain (see Fig. 5 and Table 4)
Inspect the load chain over its whole length to detect any deformed or otherwise
damaged links. Check measurements of suspect links. Measure the worn areas. Also,
every 300 mm (normally), check measurements of the internal length of 5 links (pitch
dimension 5xP –according to Table 4).

The load chain must be discarded and replaced if:
•cracks are detected on any link
•any link is deformed or otherwise damaged
•The minimum value of any link’s diameter falls short
•the maximum value of the pitch dimension is exceeded at any point
•the chain is damaged by overheating or has been affected by weld splatter
Furthermore
•Check that the wheels run smoothly, aren’t skewed and that there is no damage on
the treads and wheel flanges. If any of the wheels do not run smoothly, are skewed or
damaged, they must be replaced.
•Check that the suspension bolt is fixed with the stop screws and that these are
properly fastened. See sections 3, 6 and 7 under Mounting.
•Check that the distance between the Smart Hoist’s wheels and the lower flange of the
beam is 1 - 2 mm on each side. If this is not the case, adjustment must be made, see
sections 5-7 under Mounting.

•Check that the suspension bolt is straight. If the suspension bolt is not straight, the
entire Smart Hoist has been overloaded and must be replaced. A higher capacity
Smart Hoist may then be required.
Repairs
Only replace damaged parts with SVERO original spare parts. See Fig. 2.
