Otherwise the hoist may operate poorly or may fail to operate. See Section 3.2. CAUTION Lubrication - The hoist requires lubrication for proper operation. The oil in the air supply is the primary source of lubrication to the hoist. Therefore, a dedicated air supply lubricator must be used with the hoist. Refer to Section 3.3. CAUTION Air Quality - Good air quality is essential to prevent damage to your hoist and to ensure its proper operation. The air must be clean and free of debris such as dirt and rust. Refer to Section 3.4 for filtration requirements. The air must also be dry; free of moisture and water. Refer to Section 3.5. Air Supply Capacity And Regulation 3.2.1 Capacity - The air supply system must be capable of delivering the required airflow (cfm) to the hoist inlet port. Without the required airflow the hoist will not operate properly or may not operate at all. See Section 2.0 for your hoists air consumption requirements. In determining if your system is capable of supplying the required airflow, consider the following: Capacity of compressor(s) and tank Other air consuming equipment Flow restrictions such as pipes, hoses, valves and fittings Inadequate capacity will cause a significant drop in pressure when the hoist is operated, and could cause poor performance or failure to operate. 3.2.2 3.3 Regulation - The hoist requires a constant supply of air at a pressure of between 60 and 90 psi. If the air supply is not regulated or is regulated at a pressure greater than 90 psi, then a regulator must be used. The regulator may be located anywhere upline of the lubricator in the air supply to the hoist. Lubrication CAUTION 3.3.1 The hoist must be supplied with its own lubricator. The lubricator must be located as follows: 1) Best location - At the hoist inlet. In this case the lubricator can be either the mist type or drop type. 2) Second best location - No more than 15 feet away from the hoist, at the same elevation or above the hoist inlet. In this case the mist type lubricator must be used. 3) Third best location - No more than 15 feet away below the hoist. In this case the mist type lubricator must be used. 3.3.2 3.4 CAUTION The lubricator must be set to deliver the equivalent of 10 to 15 drops of oil per minute (2 to 3 cc/minute). The hoist’s exhaust will emit a fine oil mist when properly lubricated. Filtration 3.4.1 CAUTION The air entering the hoist inlet must not contain any particulate greater than 5 microns in size. Therefore, the hoist must have a 5 micron filter in its air supply. The filter must be upstream of the lubricator. 12 3.4.2 The filter servicing the hoist can also service other hoists and air consuming equipment. In this case, the air filter must be in sized for the total air consumption of the equipment it is servicing. Air Dryer - CAUTION 3.5 To prevent corrosion and hoist malfunction, employ an air dryer in the air supply system to ensure that dry air is supplied to the hoist. If there is moisture in the air supplied to the hoist, this moisture will cause corrosion on internal hoist components during periods when the hoist is idle leading to hoist malfunction. 3.6 Piping, Hoses And Fittings 3.6.1 CAUTION System Configuration - The system should be configured as shown in Figure 3-1. Since moisture tends to accumulate in compressed air systems, corrosion may result if the system is not periodically drained. Arrange for a drain in the air supply piping at the lowest point in the piping, and Periodically drain the system to remove moisture/water from the system and to prevent corrosion. Filter, regulator (if equipped), and lubricator must be arranged in the order shown in Figure 3-2. Figure 3-1 Diagram of Air Supply Configuration (Typical) Figure 3-2 Typical Air Supply Filter, Regulator and Lubricator. 13 3.6.2 NOTICE Piping - Pipe should be sized to accommodate the hoist airflow requirements. Table 3-1 gives recommended pipe sizes. Table 3-1 Air Supply Pipe and Hose Sizes 3.6.3 Model Diameter of Supply Pipe Diameter of Supply Hose TCR10000P2 TCR25000C2 TCR10000P2 TCR25000C2 Inside diameter 1.25 inch or larger Inside diameter 1.0 inch or larger NOTICE Hoses - The connection from the air supply system piping to the hoist must be made with a flexible pressure hose. Due to normal line losses in air supply lines: Do not use hose smaller than specified in Table 3-1, and Limit the length of the hose to that specified in Figure 3-3. If your application exceeds these requirements consult factory. Figure 3-3 Typical Arrangements of Filter, Regulator and Lubricator and Maximum Air Supply Hose Lengths 3.6.4 CAUTION Fittings - Important considerations regarding fittings in the hoist's air supply include: When connecting air supply components, remove all dirt or debris from the connecting surfaces of the hoses, pipes, fittings, or threaded fasteners to prevent contaminants from entering the hoist. Keep airflow restrictions such as quick disconnect fittings, bends, elbows, and adapters to a minimum. 14 3.6.5 3.7 Mounting Location 3.7.1 3.7.2 3.8 CAUTION Before connecting the hoist to its air supply line; perform the proper draining and purging procedures to prevent contaminants or moisture from entering the hoist. WARNING Prior to mounting the hoist ensure that the suspension and it supporting structure are adequate to support the hoist and its loads. If necessary consult a professional that is qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the suspension location and its supporting structure. NOTICE See Section 7.6 for outdoor installation considerations. Connecting Hoist to Air Supply 3.8.1 WARNING HAZARDOUS AIR PRESSURE IS PRESENT IN THE HOIST, IN THE SUPPLY OF COMPRESSED AIR TO THE HOIST, AND IN THE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN COMPONENTS. Figure 3-4 Typical Air Supply Connection 3.8.2 3.8.3 CAUTION Before connecting the air supply hose to the hoist, always purge the air hose to clear any debris and water. 3.8.4 Apply approximately 10-15 drops of turbine oil (see approved lubricant under Section 6.0 Lubricants) into the hose before attaching to the hoist. 3.8.5 Make connections to air supply; reference Figure 3-4. Use a reducing adapter at the hoist valve section for hose sizes larger than 1 inch. 3.8.6 3.9 Shut off the air supply and stop the airflow completely. Lock out and tag out in accordance with ANSI Z244.1 “Personnel Protection -Lockout/Tagout of Energy Sources”. NOTICE Where conditions dictate, the installation sequence can be reversed by mounting the hoist first (Section 3.9) followed by connecting the air supply (Section 3.8). Mounting the Hoist 3.9.1 Manual Trolley - Follow instructions in Owner’s Manual provided with the trolley. 3.9.2 Motorized Trolley - Follow instructions in Owner’s Manual provided with the trolley. 3.9.3 Hook Mounted to a Fixed Location - Attach the hoist’s top hook to the fixed suspension point. 3.9.4 WARNING Ensure that the fixed suspension point rests on the center of the hook’s saddle and that the hook’s latch is engaged . 15 3.10 Non-Stationary Application 3.10.1 For applications such as rental fleets or construction sites where the hoist is moved from place-toplace, a filter and lubricator are still required. Consult factory for recommended methods. 3.10.2 Connections and fittings must be kept clean and care taken to prevent dirt, debris and moisture from entering the hoist. 3.10.3 Recommended practice for removing the hoist from an installation: Run the hoist briefly with well lubricated air Disconnect the air supply line Inject a small quantity (approximately 20 drops) of oil into the hoist’s inlet port Plug the inlet port 3.11 Preoperational Checks and Trial Operation 3.11.1 3.11.2 CAUTION Check for the availability of required operating air pressure of between 60 PSI to 90 PSI at the hoist's inlet port before trying to operate the hoist. WARNING Verify that the load chain is not twisted or tangled and that the bottom hook is not capsized prior to operating the hoist. Correct all chain irregularities before conducting the first hoist operation. See Figures 3-5 and 3-6. Figure 3-5 Twist in Load Chain 16 Figure 3-6 Capsized Hook and Chain 3.11.3 WARNING Confirm the adequacy of the rated capacity for all slings, chains, wire ropes and all other lifting attachments before use. Inspect all load suspension members for damage prior to use and replace or repair all damaged parts. 3.11.4 WARNING Verify that the Chain/Limit Levers are operational and can move freely in both the up and down directions. For reference see Figure 3-7. Figure 3-7 Limit Switch Components – 10 Ton TCR10000C2 and TCR10000P2 17 Figure 3-8 Limit Switch Components – 25 Ton TCR25000C2 and TCR25000P2 3.11.5 Measure and record the “K” dimension of all hooks on hoist. See Table 5-6 under Section 5, “Inspection”. Always use the same side of the hook to measure and record the "K" dimension. 3.11.6 Record the hoist Code Number and Serial Number (from the nameplate on the hoist – see Section 10) in the space provided on the cover of this manual. 3.11.7 Ensure that the hoist is properly installed to either a fixed point, or trolley, whichever applies. 3.11.8 If hoist is installed on a trolley, ensure that trolley is properly installed on the beam, and stops for the trolley are correctly positioned and securely installed on the beam. 3.11.9 Ensure that all nuts, bolts and split (cotter) pins are sufficiently fastened. 3.11.10 For hoists with pendant controls, Ensure that the Pendant Hoses and Strain Relief Chain are properly attached to the hoist. See Section 7.4. 3.11.11 3.11.12 CAUTION Check Air Supply - Check air supply before everyday use. Ensure proper air quality and air pressure. CAUTION Check the lubricator for proper function and adequate oil level. 3.11.13 Confirm proper operation. Before operating read and become familiar with Section 4 - Operation. Before operating ensure that the hoist (and trolley) meets the Inspection, Testing and Maintenance requirements of ANSI/ASME B30.16. Before operating ensure that nothing will interfere with the full range of the hoist’s (and trolley’s) operation. 3.11.14 Proceed with trial operation to confirm proper operation. Initially operate slowly under no load in both directions. Verify controls agree with hoist direction. Perform inspections per Section 5.3, “Frequent Inspections”. 18 4.0 Operation 4.1 Introduction DANGER DO NOT WALK UNDER A SUSPENDED LOAD WARNING HOIST OPERATORS SHALL BE REQUIRED TO READ THE OPERATION SECTION OF THIS MANUAL, THE WARNINGS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL, INSTRUCTION AND WARNING LABELS ON THE HOIST OR LIFTING SYSTEM, AND THE OPERATION SECTIONS OF ANSI/ASME B30.16 and ANSI/ASME B30.10. THE OPERATOR SHALL ALSO BE REQUIRED TO BE FAMILIAR WITH THE HOIST AND HOIST CONTROLS BEFORE BEING AUTHORIZED TO OPERATE THE HOIST OR LIFTING SYSTEM. HOIST OPERATORS SHOULD BE TRAINED IN PROPER RIGGING PROCEDURES FOR THE ATTACHMENT OF LOADS TO THE HOIST HOOK. HOIST OPERATORS SHOULD BE TRAINED TO BE AWARE OF POTENTIAL MALFUNCTIONS OF THE EQUIPMENT THAT REQUIRE ADJUSTMENT OR REPAIR, AND TO BE INSTRUCTED TO STOP OPERATION IF SUCH MALFUNCTIONS OCCUR, AND TO IMMEDIATELY ADVISE THEIR SUPERVISOR SO CORRECTIVE ACTION CAN BE TAKEN.

HOIST OPERATORS SHOULD NOT HAVE A HISTORY OF OR BE PRONE TO SEIZURES, LOSS OF PHYSICAL CONTROL, PHYSICAL DEFECTS, OR EMOTIONAL INSTABILITY THAT COULD RESULT IN ACTIONS OF THE OPERATOR BEING A HAZARD TO THE OPERATOR OR TO OTHERS. HOIST OPERATORS SHOULD NOT OPERATE A HOIST OR LIFTING SYSTEM WHEN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL, DRUGS, OR MEDICATION. OVERHEAD HOISTS ARE INTENDED ONLY FOR VERTICAL LIFTING SERVICE OF FREELY SUSPENDED UNGUIDED LOADS. DO NOT USE HOIST FOR LOADS THAT ARE NOT LIFTED VERTICALLY, LOADS THAT ARE NOT FREELY SUSPENDED, OR LOADS THAT ARE GUIDED. NOTICE • Read ANSI/ASME B30.16 and ANSI/ASME B30.10. • Read the hoist manufacturer’s Operating and Maintenance Instructions. • Read all labels attached to equipment. 19 The operation of an overhead hoist involves more than activating the hoist’s controls. Per the ANSI/ASME B30 standards, the use of an overhead hoist is subject to certain hazards that cannot be mitigated by engineered features, but only by the exercise of intelligence, care, common sense, and experience in anticipating the effects and results of activating the hoist’s controls. Use this guidance in conjunction with other warnings, cautions, and notices in this manual to govern the operation and use of your overhead hoist. 4.2 Shall’s and Shall Not’s for Operation WARNING Improper operation of a hoist can create a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury, and substantial property damage. To avoid such a potentially hazardous situation THE OPERATOR SHALL: • NOT lift more than rated load for the hoist. • NOT operate unless load is centered under hoist. • NOT use damaged hoist or hoist that is not working properly. • NOT use hoist with twisted, kinked, damaged, or worn chain. • NOT use hoist if the bottom hook is capsized (double fall hoists - see Section 3.11). • NOT use the hoist to lift, support, or transport people. • NOT lift loads over people. • NOT apply load unless load chain is properly seated in the load sheave (and idle sheave for hoist with two chain falls). • NOT use the hoist in such a way that could result in shock or impact loads being applied to the hoist. • NOT attempt to lengthen the load chain or repair damaged load chain. • NOT operate hoist when it is restricted from forming a straight line from hook to hook in the direction of loading. • NOT use load chain as a sling or wrap load chain around load. • NOT apply the load to the tip of the hook or to the hook latch. • NOT apply load if binding prevents equal loading on all load supporting chains. • NOT operate beyond the limits of the load chain travel. • NOT operate hoist with missing/damaged chain springs, shock absorbers, stoppers, striker plates or limit locks. 20 • NOT leave load supported by the hoist unattended unless specific precautions have been taken. • NOT allow the chain, or hook to be used as an electrical or welding ground. • NOT allow the chain, or hook to be touched by a live welding electrode. • NOT remove or obscure the warnings on the hoist. • Be familiar with operating controls, procedures, and warnings. • Make sure the unit is securely attached to a suitable support before applying load. • Make sure load slings or other approved single attachments are properly sized, rigged, and seated in the hook saddle. • Take up slack carefully - make sure load is balanced and load-holding action is secure before continuing. • Make sure all persons stay clear of the supported load. • Protect the hoist’s load chain from weld splatter or other damaging contaminants. • Report malfunctions or unusual performances (including unusual noises) of the hoist and remove the hoist from service until the malfunction or unusual performance is resolved. • Make sure hoist limit switches function properly. • Warn personnel before lifting or moving a load. • Warn personnel of an approaching load. CAUTION Improper operation of a hoist can create a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury, or property damage. To avoid such a potentially hazardous situation THE OPERATOR SHALL: • Maintain a firm footing or be otherwise secured when operating the hoist. • Use the hoist manufacturer’s recommended parts when repairing the unit. • Check brake function by tensioning the hoist prior to each lift operation. • Lubricate load chain per hoist manufacturer’s recommendations. • Use hook latches. Latches are to retain slings, chains, etc. under slack conditions only. • NOT use the hoist load limiting or warning device to measure load. • Make sure the hook latches are closed and not supporting any parts of the load. • NOT use limit switches as routine operating stops. They are emergency devices only. • Make sure the load is free to move and will clear all obstructions. • NOT allow your attention to be diverted from operating the hoist. • Avoid swinging the load or hook. • • Make sure hook travel is in the same direction as shown on controls. NOT allow the hoist to be subjected to sharp contact with other hoists, structures, or objects through misuse. • Inspect the hoist regularly, replace damaged or worn parts, and keep appropriate records of maintenance. • NOT adjust or repair the hoist unless qualified to perform such adjustments or repairs. 4.3 Hoist Controls 4.3.1 For hoists mounted to motorized trolleys follow the control instruction included in the trolley ‘s Owner’s Manual. 4.3.2 Pendant Control - When using the pendant control depress the up lever to raise the hoist or the down lever to lower the hoist as shown in Figure 4-1 below. To stop motion release the lever switches. Figure 4-1 Pendant Control 21 4.3.3 Cord Control - When using a hoist with cord control, pull down on the appropriate colored cord to raise or lower the hoist. White indicates the raise control and red indicates lowering control. Release the cords to stop the hoist. Refer to Figure 4-2 below. Figure 4-2 Cord Control 4.3.4 4.4 CAUTION Make sure the motor completely stops before reversing direction. Adjusting the Controls 4.4.1 For pendant control, the speed can be adjusted by the amount the lever is depressed. As shown below in Figure 4-3, by depressing the lever slightly, you will be able control the hoist’s motions slowly and with more precision. By depressing the lever further, the speed of the hoist will be increased until the lever is fully depressed. 4.4.2 For the cord type control, adjust the speed by varying the amount of pull on the cord. Refer to Figure 4-4. Figure 4-4 Cord Control Speed Adjustment 22 4.5 Operation of the Load Limiter 4.5.1 If a hoist is used to lift a load that exceeds the hoists rated capacity, the load limiter will cause the hoist to automatically stop lifting. 4.5.2 If the hoist stops lifting automatically, lower and remove the load from the hoist. 4.5.3 If the load is at or below the hoist’s capacity rating and the hoist stops lifting automatically, the load limiter may need adjustment. Check air line pressure to ensure adequate pressure at the hoist. If pressure is adequate, adjust the load limiter. For load limiter adjustment, refer to Section 7. 23 5.0 Inspection 5.1 General 5.1.1 The inspection procedure herein is based on ANSI/ASME B30.16. The following definitions are from ANSI/ASME B30.16 and pertain to the inspection procedure below. Designated Person - a person selected or assigned as being competent to perform the specific duties to which he/she is assigned. Qualified Person - a person who, by possession of a recognized degree or certificate of professional standing, or who, by extensive knowledge, training, and experience, has successfully demonstrated the ability to solve or resolve problems relating to the subject matter and work. Normal Service - that distributed service which involves operation with randomly distributed loads within the rated load limit, or uniform loads less than 65% of rated load for not more than 25% of the time. Heavy Service - that service which involves operation within the rated load limit which exceeds normal service. Severe Service - that service which involves normal or heavy service with abnormal operating conditions. 5.2 Inspection Classification 5.2.1 Initial Inspection - prior to initial use, all new, altered, or modified hoists shall be inspected by a designated person to ensure compliance with the applicable provisions of this manual. 5.2.2 Inspection Classification - the inspection procedure for hoists in regular service is divided into two general classifications based upon the intervals at which inspection should be performed. The intervals in turn are dependent upon the nature of the critical components of the hoist and the degree of their exposure to wear, deterioration, or malfunction. The two general classifications are herein designated as FREQUENT and PERIODIC, with respective intervals between inspections as defined below. 5.2.3 FREQUENT Inspection - visual examinations by the operator or other designated personnel with intervals per the following criteria: Normal service - monthly Heavy service - weekly to monthly Severe service - daily to weekly Special or infrequent service - as recommended by a qualified person before and after each occurrence. 5.2.4 PERIODIC Inspection - visual inspection by a designated person with intervals per the following criteria: Normal service - yearly Heavy service - semiannually Severe service - quarterly Special or infrequent service - as recommended by a qualified person before the first such occurrence and as directed by the qualified person for any subsequent occurrences. 24 5.3 Frequent Inspection 5.3.1 Inspections should be made on a FREQUENT basis in accordance with Table 5-1, “Frequent Inspection.” Included in these FREQUENT Inspections are observations made during operation for any defects or damage that might appear between Periodic Inspections.

CAUTION Lubrication to the motor will be provided primarily by the air supply lubricator. The recommended amount is 10-15 drops/minute (2-3cc/min.). Refer to Table 6-1 below for the approved lubricant for use with your air hoist. Additional lubrication to the reduction gears is not necessary. When disassembling the hoist for service or repair, apply new grease to the gears before reassembling the hoist. Load Chain Lubrication 6.2.1 For longer life, lightly coat the load chain with machine or gear oil. Ensure that the oil is applied to the bearing surfaces of the load chain links. 6.2.2 The load chain lubrication should be accomplished after cleaning the load chain with acid free cleaning solution. Use approved lubricant in Table 6-1 or equivalent. 6.2.3 For dusty environments, it is acceptable to substitute a dry lubricant. Hooks and Suspension Components 6.3.1 Hooks - Bearings should be cleaned and lubricated at least once per year for normal usage. Clean and lubricate more frequently for heavier usage or severe conditions. 6.3.2 Suspension Pins - Lubricate at least twice per year for normal usage; more frequently for heavier usage or severe conditions.

When lifting, the hoist will stop automatically if the load is above the rated capacity of the hoist. 7.1.2 The adjustment is factory set to actuate at approximately125% of rated capacity (based on supply air pressure of 90 PSI). Note: the load limiter may need adjustment to compensate for air supply pressures significantly less than 90 PSI. Figure 7-1 Load Limiter screw adjustment location 7.1.3 Adjustment Procedure 1) Before proceeding with the load limiter adjustment, note the following: a. WARNING Adjusting the load limiter involves operating the hoist. Personnel involved in the adjustment procedure should read, understand, and follow Section 4, "Operation". b. For the adjustment procedure, the hoist should be connected to an air supply (see Section 3.1) and it should initially be without a load on its hook. c. Start this procedure with an unloaded hoist. All adjustments to the load limiter should be made with the load in a resting position so that the load chain is not tensioned. d. For the adjustment procedure: OUT means the counter-clockwise (CCW) direction, and IN means the clockwise (CW) direction. e. The pressure of the air supply at the hoist’s inlet port (acceptable range is 60 to 90 PSI) affects the performance of your air hoist, including the actuation point of the load limiter. Therefore, ensure that during the adjustment procedure the air pressure at the hoist's inlet port is the same as that which the hoist will experience in normal operation. The relationship between air supply pressure and load limiter actuation is: For a given load limiter setting, as pressure decreases, the actuation point increases. f. When the load limiter is adjusted and working properly, the hoist will operate and lift the load a short distance before the load limiter automatically stops lifting. 2) Refer to Figure 7-1. Loosen the lock nut and slowly turn the adjustment screw OUT until it is loose and no longer is in contact with the internal load limiter spring – as this occurs the screw should become easier to turn. Stop turning the screw once it is loose and easier to turn. 3) Turn the adjustment screw IN just enough so that it begins to contact the internal load limiter spring – as this occurs the screw should become slightly harder to turn. 32 4) Put a load equal to the desired actuation point on the hoist's hook (do not exceed 125% of the hoist's rated capacity). Begin to slowly lift the load, then increase the lifting speed. Return the load to its resting position so the load chain is not under tension. 5) If the load limiter prevents lifting, turn the adjustment screw IN one full turn. 6) Repeat steps 4 and 5 until the load limiter allows lifting. 7) Turn the adjustment screw OUT ¾ of a turn. 8) Attempt to lift the rated capacity load again, beginning slowly, then increasing the lifting speed. 9) If the load limiter does not allow lifting, then turn the adjustment screw IN ¼ turn. 10) Repeat steps 8 and 9 until the load limiter allows lifting. 11) Turn the adjustment screw IN ¼ turn. Then, while holding the adjustment screw, tighten the lock nut to secure the setting. 7.2 Brake 7.2.1 For Load Brake setup and adjustment procedure consult factory. 7.2.2 Inspect the brake disc in accordance with Section 5.7, Table 5-3. 7.2.3 The following is the hoist brake inspection procedure. Refer to Figure 7-2. 1) WARNING HAZARDOUS AIR PRESSURE IS PRESENT IN THE HOIST, IN THE SUPPLY OF COMPRESSED AIR TO THE HOIST, AND IN THE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN COMPONENTS. Shut off the air supply and stop the airflow completely. Lock out and tag out in accordance with ANSI Z244.1 “Personnel Protection -Lockout/Tagout of Energy Sources”. 2) Do NOT turn or remove the brake adjustment screw located in the center of the brake cover. 3) Gradually back out all four hex socket cap screws from brake cover to slowly decrease spring tension of brake piston against brake disc. 4) Remove brake cover from the motor housing top of gear case. Keep brake piston, springs, seals, etc. together inside the brake cover. 5) Remove brake disc for inspection and measurement. Refer to "Motor Brake" in Table 5-3, "Hoist Inspection Methods and Criteria". 6) Prior to reassembly, clean all surfaces of debris, dirt and loose paint. 7) Reassemble in reverse order. Torque all mounting hardware evenly during the reassembly process. 33 Figure 7-2 Brake Inspection Diagram 7.3 Load Chain 7.3.1 Lubrication and Cleaning Clean the chain with an acid-free cleaning solution. The load chain should be kept clean and lubricated. Lubrication - Clean and lubricate the load chain per Section 6 at least once every 3 months for normal usage. Clean and lubricate more frequently for heavier usage or severe conditions. 7.3.2 Replacement 1) 2) 3) CAUTION An air supply line must be connected to the hoist in order to perform the following procedures. The hoist must accessible and must be hanging from the top hook assembly. WARNING Be certain that the replacement chain is obtained from Harrington and is the exact size, grade and construction as the original chain. CAUTION When replacing load chain, check for wear on mating parts, i.e. Load Sheave, Chain Guides and Idle Sheave, and replace parts if necessary. Remove old chain. Remove hook set assemblies, limit locks, stoppers and end connections from the chain for reuse on new chain. If the load chain is being replaced due to damage or wear out, prevent its reuse by destroying the old chain. 4) Remove the existing Load Chain – Lower the bottom hook assembly until it rests on the ground or is supported by some other means. Disconnect the no-load and load end of the load chain from the hoist. Run the hoist in the down direction to remove the chain form the hoist body. 5) Run the hoist in the up or down direction until the load sheave is positioned as shown in Figure 7-3. 6) Without operating the hoist, tie a wire to the end of the new load chain, then thread the wire through the hoist over the load sheave. Pull the wire so that the load chain enters the hoist making certain that the first link is a standing link and that its weld is facing away from the centerline of the hoist. 34 7) While pulling on the wire, SLOWLY operate hoist in the DOWN direction to thread the load chain over the load sheave. Make sure the chain feeds smoothly while operating the hoist. If binding occurs, stop and SLOWLY operate the hoist in the up direction to the back the chain out, then reorient the load sheave as instructed in step 5 before attempting to reinsert the load chain. 8) Operated the hoist in the down direction until sufficient there is sufficient load chain to reeve the hoist. 9) Reeve the chain through the bottom hook assembly. Remove the wire from the Load chain and attach the no-load and load end of the load chain to the hoist. Ensure that chain remains free of twists. 10) After installation has been completed, perform steps outlined in Section 3.12 "Preoperational Checks and Trial Operation". 10 Ton TCR10000P2 & TCR10000C2 25 Ton TCR25000P2 & TCR25000C2 Figure 7-3 Diagram showing chain replacement 35 7.4 Pendant 7.4.1 The following procedure covers the installation of a pendant control station. 1) Attach the strain relief chain and the three hoses to the pendant station. 2) Attach the strain relief chain to the hoist valve body with the socket bolt as shown in Figure 7-4. 3) Attach the three hoists to the fittings on the hoist's valve body. Refer to Figure 7-4 and make sure the up, down and supply hoses are attached to the correct locations. 4) NOTICE When attaching tubes take care not to bend or kink tubing. This will result in the air flow being restricted and poor response to the pendant controls. 5) Attach the hoist to supply air. Check for leaks and properoperation. 6) WARNING The pendant hoses hoist must be connected so that its direction of operation corresponds to the up-and-down lever on the pendant control; i.e. pushing the up button must cause the hook to raise. If the hoist does not operate correctly, shut off the air supply to the hoist and correct the pendant connections. Figure 7-4 Pendant Hose and Strain Relief Connections 36 7.5 7.6 Storage 7.5.1 Whenever the hoist is to be placed into storage, place extra lubricating oil into the air inlet opening and circulate the air motor before plugging the inlet. Make certain that no debris, dirt or moisture is allowed to enter the air hoist through air inlet opening during preparations for storage. 7.5.2 The storage location should be clean and dry. Outdoor Installation 7.6.1 For hoist installations that are outdoors, the hoist should be covered when not in use. 7.6.2 In order to prevent internal corrosion from occurring, the hoist must be operated using proper quality air at least once per week by raising and lowering the hoist one full cycle. Note: the possibility of corrosion in the valve section of the hoist increases for areas where salt air and high humidity are present. For such situations you may need to operate your hoist more often than once per week. 37 8.0 Troubleshooting WARNING HAZARDOUS AIR PRESSURE IS PRESENT IN THE HOIST, IN THE SUPPLY OF COMPRESSED AIR TO THE HOIST, AND IN CONNECTIONS BETWEEN COMPONENTS. Before performing ANY maintenance on the equipment, de-energize the supply of compressed air to the equipment, and lock and tag the supply device in the de-energized position.
