1. Set the top hook securely.
2. Correctly center the load on the bottom hook. Incorrect loading is dangerous to the operator, the
lever hoist, and the load.

mode. The chain will only be in the free-wheel mode when there is no load. Take up slack by
pulling on loose or free end or by turning the hand wheel.
4. Move the selector switch to the UP position. Ratchet the lever to raise or pull the load. Do not
overload the lever hoist.
5. To release or lower the load, turn selector switch on the handle to the DOWN position and ratchet
the handle.

Maintenance Interval
Maintenance Point
Daily before operating
Inspect the general condition of the hoist. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or
broken parts, and any other condition that may affect its safe
operation. If abnormal noise occurs, have the problem
corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.

Keep all moving parts lubricated at all times. Use common
gear oil. For best results, the load chain should be cleaned
with an acid free cleaning solution prior to lubrication.

other exposed metal should be well lubricated when storage.
The hoist should be covered or brought inside after using
outdoor.
