WORKING CHECKS
- Check that the voltage available corresponds to that indicated on the motor-rating-plates.
- Lubricate the rope, the drum, the pulley groove, the rope guide-ring and the gears of the monorail trolley drive wheels without
contaminating the mono rail beam.
- Check that the colored limit switch rod is in vertical position, up for monorail trolleys, down for bi-rail trolleys.
- Once the connections with the power supply line are made, check that the direction of the movements corresponds to the symbols
on the push-button control panel, proceed as follows; push the "on" button and then one brief push on one of the lower buttons
check that the hook actually moves down. This is the only way for the limit switches to work regularly.
Otherwise invert two phases at the power supply.
- Perform all movements in no-load conditions and record the setting of electric limit switches if necessary.
CLEANING AND LUBRICATION
Cleaning may be performed by not highly qualified personnel. The hook, block and push button control panel (or radio-control)
must be kept as clean as working conditions allow.
Any cleaning operation at height must be per formed by qualified personnel wearing the suitable personal protective
equipment.
Such operations must be performed within the scheduled periodical checks.
• Cleaning may be performed using means, utensils and detergents or solvents normally employed for cleaning
industrial equipment.
• Remove any foreign and soiling substances with the aid of vacuum cleaners, cloths etc.
• Dry any oil and/or grease in excess that may be present on the machine’s parts.
The careful lubrication of the machine’s mechanisms is one of the conditions required in order to guarantee the
efficacy, efficiency and long life of the machine.
HOIST AND CRANE WITH HOIST
All cranes equipped with an electric hoist meant for service within Europe are supplied fully lubricated. Hoisting, trolley
traveling and bridge sliding reducers are filled with lubricant which is sufficient and suitable for at least 3 years of service.
All rolling bearings, ball supports and wire ropes are already lubricated and therefore further lubrication prior to starting up the
machine is not necessary.
Nevertheless, you are kindly requested to check reducers’ levels through the relevant indicator caps.
