How to extend the service life of a chain hoist

　　The hand chain hoist has significant advantages, as it is relatively lightweight. The main reason is that its structural design is reasonable, with the ratchet and pawl designed on the appearance, which makes the overall structure more compact, shortens the volume of the hand chain hoist, and reduces its own weight to a certain extent.

　　The small size can also be attributed to its material. The hand chain hoist is made of lightweight aluminum alloy material, which is much lighter in weight than alloy steel. The material selection is relatively light, so the overall volume of the hand chain hoist is correspondingly reduced. This makes it convenient for users to use and carry when working at heights. The hand chain hoist is simple and convenient to use, which is also one of the reasons why it has always been favored by a large number of users

　　We want to extend the service life of the chain hoist, which is closely related to daily maintenance. Below, we will tell you the several aspects that need to be paid attention to in daily maintenance of the chain hoist

　　Daily inspection and maintenance of chain hoists

　　1. Check the lifting chain for excessive wear, corrosion, deformation, and external damage.

　　2. Check if all rotating parts are flexible and the fasteners must not be loose.

　　3. Check the wear and deformation of the hook. The hook should be free of harmful defects such as cracks, sharp angles, burrs, corrosion, warping, and twisting.

　　4. Each transmission component should be regularly lubricated with grease, and the friction surfaces of the brake must be kept clean and free of oil stains to ensure reliable braking performance.

　　5. When using the lifting chain, lubricating oil should be applied regularly and dirt or other debris should not be stuck on it to prevent the lifting chain from being carried by people and depositing in the concave area, which will affect normal meshing.

　　6. The used chain hoist should be stored in a dry place. When left unused for a long time, appropriate protection and proper storage should be taken.

　　Regular inspection and maintenance of chain hoists

　　1. The time interval for inspection should be determined based on the frequency and environment of the work, but not less than one year per year.

　　2. Disassembly and inspection must be carried out by personnel familiar with the product structure and performance in accordance with the requirements of the user and maintenance manual.

　　To make the most of a chain hoist, it is closely related to regular maintenance. I hope the above suggestions can help you.
