3.0 Preoperational Procedu res
3.1 Air Supply System Requirements
3.1.1
air hoist with required pressure and flow. Otherwise the hoist may operate poorly or may fail to
operate. See Section 3.2.
3.1.2
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.
3.1.3
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.
Pressure and Flow - Verify that the air supply system has capacity to supply your
Lubrication - The hoist requires lubrication for proper operation. The oil in the air
Air Quality - Good air quality is essential to prevent damage to your hoist and to
3.2 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 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.
3.3 Lubrication
3.3.1
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
minute (2 to 3 cc/minute). The hoist’s exhaust will emit a fine oil mist when properly lubricated.
3.4 Filtration

microns in size. Therefore, the hoist must have a 5 micron filter
upstream of the lubricator.
The hoist must be supplied with its own lubricator. The lubricator must be located
The lubricator must be set to deliver the equivalent of 10 to 15 drops of oil per
The air entering the hoist inlet must not contain any particulate greater than 5
in its air supply. The filter must be

supply system to ensure that dry air
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
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, reg ulator (if equipped), and lubricator must be arranged in the order shown in Figure 3-2.
System Configuration - The system should be configured as shown in Figure 3-1.
To prevent corrosion and hoist malfunction, employ an air dryer in the air
is supplied to the hoist. If there is moisture in the air supplied to the hoist,
Figure 3-1 Diagram of Air Supply Configuration (Typical)

3.6.3
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.
