This manual provides important information for all personnel involved with the safe installation, operation and proper maintenance of this product. Even if you feel you are familiar with this or similar equipment, you should read this manual before operating the winch.
Throughout this manual there are steps and procedures which, if not followed, may result in a hazard. The following signal words are used to identify the level of potential hazard.
Danger is used to indicate the presence of DANGER a hazard which will cause severe injury,
death, or substantial property damage if the warning is ignored.
WARNING
CAUTION
Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard which can cause severe injury, death, or substantial property damage if the warning is ignored.
Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard which will or can cause injury or property damage if the warning is ignored.
Notice is used to notify people of NOTICE installation, operation, or maintenance
information which is important but not hazard-related.
WARNING
•Do not use this winch for lifting, supporting, or transporting people unless winch is approved for Man RiderTM applications. Do not lift or support loads over people.
•The supporting structures and load-attaching devices used in conjunction with this winch must provide an adequate safety factor to handle the rated load, plus the weight of the winch and attached equipment. This is the customer’s responsibility. If in doubt, consult a registered structural engineer.
Ingersoll Rand winches are manufactured in accordance with the latest ASME B30.7 standards.
The National Safety Council, Accident Prevention Manual for Industrial Operations, Eighth Edition and other recognized safety sources make a common point: Employees who work near suspended loads or assist in hooking on or arranging a load should be instructed to keep out from under the load. From a safety standpoint, one factor is paramount: conduct all lifting or pulling operations in such a manner that if there were an equipment failure, no personnel would be injured. This means keep out from under a raised load and keep out of the intended path of any load.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 generally places the burden of compliance with the user, not the manufacturer. Many OSHA requirements are not concerned or connected with the manufactured product but are, rather, associated with the final installation. It is the owner’s and user’s responsibility to determine the suitability of a product for any particular use. It is recommended that all applicable industry, trade association, federal, state and local regulations be checked. Read all operating instructions and warnings before operation.
Rigging: It is the responsibility of the operator to exercise caution, use common sense and be familiar with proper rigging techniques. Refer to ASME B30.9 for rigging information, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Three Park Avenue, New York, NY 10015.
This manual has been produced by Ingersoll Rand to provide dealers, mechanics, operators and company personnel with information required to install, operate, maintain and repair the products described herein.
It is extremely important that mechanics and operators be familiar with servicing procedures of these products, or like or similar products, and are physically capable of conducting the procedures. These personnel shall have a general working knowledge that includes:
1.Proper and safe use and application of mechanics common hand tools as well as special Ingersoll Rand or recommended tools.
2.Safety procedures, precautions and work habits established by accepted industry standards.
Ingersoll Rand cannot know of, or provide all the procedures by which product operations or repairs may be conducted and the hazards and/or results of each method. If operation or maintenance procedures not specifically recommended by the manufacturer are conducted, it must be ensured that product safety is not endangered by the actions taken. If unsure of an operation or maintenance procedure or step, personnel should place the product in a safe condition and contact supervisors and/ or the factory for technical assistance.

The following warnings and operating instructions have been adapted in part from American Society of Mechanical Engineers (Safety) Standard ASME B30.7 and are intended to avoid unsafe operating practices which might lead to injury or property damage.
Ingersoll Rand recognizes that most companies who use winches have a safety program in force at their facility. In the event that some conflict exists between a rule set forth in this publication and a similar rule already set by an individual company, the more stringent of the two should take precedence.
Safe Operating Instructions are provided to make an operator aware of dangerous practices to avoid and are not necessarily limited to the following list. Refer to specific sections in the manual for additional safety information.
1.Only allow personnel trained in safety and operation of this product to operate and maintain this winch.
2.Only operate a winch if you are physically fit to do so.
3.When a “DO NOT OPERATE” sign is placed on winch, or controls, do not operate winch until sign has been removed by designated personnel.
4.Before each shift, check winch for wear and damage. Never use a winch that inspection indicates is worn or damaged.
5.Never lift a load greater than rated capacity of the winch. Refer to labels attached to winch or to “SPECIFICATIONS” section.
6.Keep hands, clothing, etc., clear of moving parts.
7.Never place your hand in the throat area of a hook or near wire rope spooling onto or off of winch drum.
8.Always rig loads properly and carefully.
9.Be certain the load is properly seated in saddle of hook. Do not support load on tip of hook.
10.Do not “side pull” or “yard”.
11.Always ensure that you, and all other people, are clear of the path of the load. Do not lift a load over people.
12.Never use the winch for lifting or lowering people, and never allow anyone to stand on a suspended load.
13.Ease slack out of wire rope when starting a lift or pull. Do not jerk the load.
14.Do not swing a suspended load.
15.Do not leave a suspended load unattended.
16.Never operate a winch with twisted, kinked or damaged wire rope.
17.Pay attention to the load at all times when operating the winch.
18.Never use the winch wire rope as a sling.
19.After use, or when in a non-operational mode, winch should be secured against unauthorized and unwarranted use.
Each unit is shipped from the factory with warning label shown. If the label is not attached to your unit, order a new label and install it. Refer to the parts list for part number. Label is shown smaller than actual size.

*Wire rope storage capacity based on wire rope top layer located a minimum of 1/2 inch (13 mm) below drum flange and meets ASME B30.7. The wire rope storage capacities listed may vary from figures stated elsewhere.
FA5 winches are air powered, planetary geared units designed for lifting and pulling applications. FA5 winches are available with either an internal automatic disc brake, a manual or automatic band brake, or a combination of both.
The output from an externally mounted piston air motor is transmitted through a coupling and shaft to the planetary reduction gear assembly.
The output from planetary reduction gear assembly is connected to the wire rope drum through the output shaft.
FA5 winches can be provided with an optional disc brake assembly consisting of friction plates splined to a hub which in turn is connected to the drive shaft from the air motor. Brake friction plates are clamped to the drum shaft through a spring applied piston. The brake remains applied until the winch control valve is operated and winch payout or haul-in occurs. Air is introduced into the brake piston chamber, which is formed between brake piston and brake housing, causing the brake piston to react, compressing brake springs and releasing friction plates allowing motor shaft to rotate. A power failure or sudden loss of air will immediately cause the spring applied brake to engage.
The drum band brake operates by applying a friction force between drum brake band and winch drum. The manual brake requires an operator to engage and disengage brake using a lever located on top of brake band. The automatic drum band brake operation is similar to disc brake operation; they are both fully disengaged in the haul-in and payout direction.

Prior to installing winch, carefully inspect it for possible shipping damage.
Winches are supplied fully lubricated from the factory. Before operation check oil levels and adjust as necessary. Use the proper type of oil as recommended in “LUBRICATION” section.
CAUTION
• Owners and users are advised to examine specific, local or other regulations, including American Society of Mechanical Engineers Standards and/or OSHA Regulations which may apply to a particular type of use of this product before installing or putting winch to use.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0133 and Table 1 on page 8, and Table 2 on page 9.
Care must be taken when moving, positioning or mounting the winch. In most cases, lifting lugs have been provided to assist in handling the winch. If lug locations are improper for your specific installation, great care should be taken to ensure that winch, when lifted, will be properly balanced. Determine weight of your winch by referring to “SPECIFICATIONS” section. Lift winch 3 to 4 inches (75 to 100 mm) off ground.
Verify winch is balanced and secure before continuing lift. Mount winch so axis of drum is horizontal and that motor vent cap is not more than 15° off top vertical center. If winch is to be mounted in an inverted position, motor case must be rotated to position vent cap at top.
1.The winch mounting surface must be flat and of sufficient strength to handle rated load plus weight of winch and attached equipment. An inadequate foundation may cause distortion or twisting of winch uprights and side rails resulting in winch damage.
2.Make sure mounting surface is flat to within 0.005 inch (0.127 mm) per inch of drum length. Shim if necessary. Refer to Table 1.
3.Mounting bolts must be 3/4 inch (18 mm) Grade 8 or better. Use self-locking nuts or nuts with lockwashers.
4.Tighten 3/4 inch (18 mm) mounting bolts evenly and torque to 380 ft lbs (515 Nm) for dry thread fasteners. If fasteners are plated, lubricated or a thread locking compound is used, torque to 280 ft lbs (380 Nm).
5.Maintain a fleet angle between sheave and winch of no more than 1-1/2°. The lead sheave must be on a center line with drum and, for every inch (25 mm) of drum length, be at least 1.6 feet (0.5 metre) from the drum. Refer to Dwg. MHP2123 on page 9.
6.Do not weld any part of winch.

CAUTION
•Maintain at least 3 tight wraps of wire rope on drum at all times.
•Install wire rope to come off drum for overwind operation. (normal application.) Refer to Dwg. MHP2124 on page 9.
(Dwg. MHP2124)
(Dwg. MHP2123)
‘A’ = 1.6 feet (0.5 metre) per inch of drum length: ‘A’ = 19.2 feet (5.85 metres) for 12 inch drum. ‘A’ = 25.6 feet (7.80 metres) for 16 inch drum. ‘A’ = 38.4 feet (11.7 metres) for 24 inch drum. ‘A’ = 48.0 feet (14.6 metres) for 30 inch drum. ‘A’ = 57.6 feet (17.5 metres) for 36 inch drum.
Notes:
1.Maintain a minimum of 3 tight wraps of wire rope on drum at all times.
2.Ensure wire rope does not exceed top layer requirement. Refer to “SPECIFICATIONS” section.
NOTICE
• For underwound applications order the “U” option or contact factory prior to operation.
Consult a reputable wire rope manufacturer or distributor for assistance in selecting appropriate type and size of wire rope and, where necessary, a protective coating. Use a wire rope which provides an adequate safety factor to handle actual working load and that meets all applicable industry, trade association, federal, state and local regulations.
When considering wire rope requirements the actual working load must include not only static or dead load but also loads resulting from acceleration, retardation and shock load. Consideration must also be given to the size of winch wire rope drum, sheaves and method of reeving. Wire rope construction should be 6 X 19 or 6 X 37 IWRC EIPS right regular lay. Refer to Table 3 on page 9 for minimum and maximum recommended wire rope sizes.

CAUTION
• To avoid disc brake damage when installing wire rope pressurize brake with a minimum of 60 psi (4.1 bar) air from an auxiliary source.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0166 on page 10.
1.Cut wire rope to length in accordance with wire rope manufacturer’s instructions.
2.Feed end of wire rope into wire rope anchor hole in drum and pull through approximately one foot (305 mm) of wire rope.
(Dwg. MHP0166)
3.Wrap wire rope with wire a distance from the end equal to wedge length plus one inch (25 mm).
4.Slide sleeve over end of wire rope so larger diameter of taper bore is nearest the end of wire rope.
5.Spread end strands of wire rope and insert split wedge until it is below the end of wire rope.
6.Pull sleeve over wire rope end until tight. Check that wire rope strands stay in the slots located on split wedge.
7.Pull wire rope anchor into position in drum anchor pocket.
CAUTION
• Make sure first wrap of wire rope is tight and lays flush against drum flange.
1.Always use gloves when handling wire rope.
2.Never use wire rope which is frayed or kinked.
3.Never use wire rope as a sling.
4.Always ensure wire rope is correctly spooled and the first layer is tight against drum.
5.Always follow wire rope manufacturers’ recommendation on use and maintenance of wire rope.
Refer to Dwg. MHP2125 on page 10.
To compensate for uneven spooling and decrease in line pull capacity as drum fills up, use as short a wire rope as practical. When rewinding apply tension to the end of wire rope to eliminate slack. This helps achieve level winding and tight spooling.
Support wire rope spool and have wire rope come off top of spool and over top of winch drum. This will prevent damage to wire rope.
Spooling Wire Rope onto Winch Drum
(Dwg. MHP2125)
Make sure all wire rope blocks, tackle and fasteners have a sufficient safety margin to handle required load under all conditions. Do not allow wire rope to contact sharp edges or make sharp bends which will cause damage to wire rope, use a sheave. Refer to wire rope manufacturer’s handbook for proper sizing, use and care of wire rope.
1.Do not use wire rope as a ground (earth) for welding.
2.Do not attach a welding electrode to winch or wire rope.
3.Never run wire rope over a sharp edge. Use a correctly sized sheave.
4.When a lead sheave is used, it must be aligned with center of drum. The diameter of lead sheave must be at least 18 times diameter of wire rope. Refer to Dwg. MHP2123 on page 9.
5.Always maintain at least three full, tight wraps of wire rope on drum.
The air supply must be clean, free from moisture and lubricated to ensure optimum motor performance. Foreign particles, moisture and lack of lubrication are the primary causes of premature motor wear and breakdown. Using an air filter, lubricator and moisture separator will improve overall winch performance and reduce unscheduled down time.
Air consumption for the FA5 and FA5T air motor is 700 scfm (20 cu. m/min.) at rated operating pressure of 90 psig (6.3 bar) at winch motor inlet. If air supply varies from recommended, then winch performance will change.
10 |
MHD56037 - Edition 5 |
Inside diameter of winch air supply lines must not be less than sizes shown in Table 4 on page 11. Before making final connections, all air supply lines should be purged with clean, moisture free air or nitrogen before connecting to winch inlet. Supply lines should be as short and straight as installation conditions will permit. Long transmission lines and excessive use of fittings, elbows, tees, globe valves etc. cause a reduction in pressure due to restrictions and surface friction in lines.

Refer to Dwg. MHP0191 on page 11.
Always use an air line lubricator with these motors. The lubricator must have an inlet and outlet at least as large as inlet on motor. Install air line lubricator as close to air inlet on motor as possible.
CAUTION
•Lubricator must be located no more than 10 ft. (3 m) from motor.
•Shut off air supply before filling air line lubricator.
The air line lubricator should be replenished daily and set to provide 6 to 9 drops per minute of ISO VG 32 (SAE 10W) oil. A fine mist will be exhausted from throttle control valve when air line lubricator is functioning properly.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0191 on page 11.
It is recommended that an air line strainer/filter be installed as close as practical to motor air inlet port, but before lubricator, to prevent dirt from entering valve and motor. The strainer/filter should provide 20 micron filtration and include a moisture trap. Clean the strainer/filter periodically to maintain its operating efficiency.

Filter
(Dwg. MHP0191)
If an air pressure regulator is used, install between lubricator and filter. Refer to Dwg. MHP0191 on page 11.
Moisture that reaches the air motor through air supply lines is a primary factor in determining the length of time between service overhauls. Moisture traps can help to eliminate moisture. Other methods, such as an air receiver which collects moisture before it reaches motor or an aftercooler at compressor that cools air to condense and collect moisture prior to distribution through supply lines are also helpful.
Make sure mufflers are installed in winch exhaust manifold and control valve exhaust port. An additional muffler is used on winches equipped with an emergency stop and overload device. Check mufflers periodically to ensure they are functioning correctly.
For optimum performance and maximum durability of parts, provide an air supply of 90 psig at 700 scfm (6.3 bar/630 kPa at 20 cu. m/m) as measured at motor inlet. The air motor should be installed as near as possible to compressor or air receiver.
Refer to Dwg. MHP1492 on page 12. old style
The air supply line is connected to the shutoff valve which is connected to the air control valve. When Emergency Stop valve is activated, a pilot signal is sent to the shut off pilot valve which directs shutoff valve to cut off air to winch, immediately stopping all winch movement.
CAUTION
• If winch continues to move (payout load) after shutoff valve activates, brake(s) are not holding load and need to be adjusted or repaired.
The overload system also activates shutoff valve. When Delta-P valve senses a preset pressure difference between the two ports, located on rotary housing, it directs a pilot signal to shutoff pilot valve activating the shutoff valve. Refer to Dwg. MHP1491 on page 12.

Winches are tested for proper operation prior to leaving factory. Before winch is placed into service the following initial operating checks should be performed.
1.When first running motor inject some light oil into inlet connection to provide initial lubrication.
2.When first operating winch it is recommended that motor be operated slowly in both directions for a few minutes.
For winches that have been in storage the following start-up procedures are required.
1.Give the winch an inspection conforming to requirements of “Winches Not in Regular Use” in the “INSPECTION” section.
2.Pour a small amount of ISO VG 32 (SAE 10W) oil in motor inlet port.
3.Operate motor for 10 seconds in both directions to flush out any impurities.
4.The winch is now ready for normal use.
The four most important aspects of winch operation are:
1.Follow all safety instructions when operating winch.
2.Allow only people trained in safety and operation of this winch to operate this equipment.
3.Subject each winch to a regular inspection and maintenance procedure.
4.Be aware of winch capacity and weight of load at all times.
CAUTION
• To avoid damage to rigging, the structure supporting rigging and winch, do not “two-block” the end of wire rope.
* Two blocking occurs when winch wire rope is multi-reeved using two separate sheave blocks which are allowed to come into contact with each other during winch operation. When this occurs extreme forces are exerted on wire rope and sheave blocks which may result in equipment and or rigging failure.
Operators must be physically competent. Operators must have no health condition which might affect their ability to act, and they must have good hearing, vision and depth perception. The winch operator must be carefully instructed in his duties and must understand the operation of winch, including a study of the manufacturers’ literature. The operator must thoroughly understand proper methods of hitching loads and must have a good attitude regarding safety. It is the operator’s responsibility to refuse to operate winch under unsafe conditions.
WARNING
• Winch is not designed or suitable for lifting, lowering or moving persons. Never lift loads over people.
The spring loaded, motor mounted, live air manual throttle control valve is supplied as a standard feature on this winch. Optional remote throttle controls are available. Reference model code on the winch nameplate and compare it to the “SPECIFICATIONS” section, on page 5 of this manual, to determine your configuration.

The overload device is integrated into winch air motor control air system and prevents winch from lifting a load greater than overload value. Refer to “INSPECTION” section on page 21. If an overload is detected, inlet supply air is stopped and winch will not operate.
If overload device is activated load must be lowered and reduced. To lower load and reset emergency stop valve:
1.Locate serrated ring directly below emergency stop button. Rotating serrated ring clockwise, causes emergency stop button to ‘pop up’.
2.Depress emergency stop valve ‘ON’ button.
3.Operate winch control in payout direction.
Refer to Dwg. MHP1865 on page 12.
With auxiliary valve in the NORMAL position, winch provides normal operation. Placing valve selector in TENSIONING position allows winch to automatically operate to haul-in slack wire rope to maintain tension.
Auxiliary valve provides preset air pressure to air motor and disc brake. This allows brake to be released and winch to overhaul during TENSIONING operations. In this position, winch will maintain constant tension on wire rope.
Auxiliary valve is pre-set at zero from the factory. Specific adjustments must be made in the field. Adjustments can be modified at anytime to accommodate the load conditions. Refer to ‘Regulator Adjustment’ in the “MAINTENANCE” section for specific procedure.
1.Place auxiliary valve in NORMAL position.
2.Operate winch normally to position end of load line.
3.Connect load line to load.
MHD56037 - Edition 5
WARNING
• Ensure slack load line is taken up by operating winch control valve with selector in NORMAL position. If selector lever is placed in TENSION position the winch will immediately attempt to establish line tension causing line to ‘snap’ resulting in injury or damage to property.
4.Operate winch normally to remove slack from load line.
5.Actuate valve to TENSION position to set winch to automatically haul-in load line and maintain line tension.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0153 on page 48.
The manual drum brake may be applied by pushing down on handle (104) and released by pulling up. If handle is pushed down fully, it should lock in that position and prevent drum rotation, until released by operator. The brake must be kept properly adjusted to hold required load. Refer to ‘Adjustments’ on page 26 in “MAINTENANCE” section for adjustment instructions.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0153 on page 48.
The automatic drum brake is a spring applied, air released brake which utilizes an air actuated, spring loaded cylinder (110), that automatically disengages brake when motor is operated. Air pressure in cylinder overcomes spring pressure to release brake. When control valve is placed in neutral position, air in cylinder (110) is vented and spring automatically engages brake to prevent drum rotation.
The cylinder clevis (107) must be kept properly adjusted to hold required load.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0152 on page 46.
The automatic disc brake is a spring applied, air released brake. Using an air actuated, spring loaded piston (10), the brake automatically disengages when motor is operated and engages when throttle is returned to neutral position.
Air pressure ported through brake housing (21) overcomes spring
(9) pressure and moves piston (10) which releases brake. When control valve is placed in neutral position, air is vented, spring pressure overcomes air pressure and spring (9) pressure moves piston, engages brake and prevents drum rotation.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0155 on page 61.
The drum locking pin is mounted to winch on outboard upright, opposite motor. It should be engaged if a load is left suspended. The drum lock is operated by rotating a pin between a shallow groove (disengaged) and a deep groove (engaged).
To Engage:
1.Rotate drum (80) to align one of the holes in flange with locking pin (136). Pull out, straight away from outboard upright, pull rod (140) and rotate counterclockwise 90°, aligning pin (135) with deep groove in gland (138). Release
17
pull rod and ensure locking pin engages and is seated in drum hole and gland deep groove.
WARNING
•Ensure that all braking mechanisms are engaged and all personnel are clear of winch load and rigging before disengaging locking pin.
•Extremely difficult locking pin release is an indication that load is held by locking pin and braking mechanisms are not functioning properly. Do not release locking pin until load control is established.
To Disengage:
1.Pull out, straight away from outboard upright, pull rod (140) and rotate clockwise 90°. Align pin (135) with the shallow groove in gland (138) and release pull rod. Ensure locking pin (136) is clear of the drum (80) flange and pin is seated in gland shallow groove.
Pre-set limit switch settings prevent winch wire rope payout and haul-in by stopping air flow to the winch motor when a defined set point has been reached. It is the owner’s and operator’s responsibility to adjust winch operating limits prior to using winch.
To adjust set points refer to ‘Adjustments’ in “MAINTENANCE” section.
WARNING
• Ensure limit switch set points are established and operating properly before using winch.

MHD56037 - Edition 5 |
To ensure continued satisfactory operation of winch, all points requiring lubrication must be serviced with correct lubricant at proper time interval as indicated for each assembly.
The lubrication intervals recommended in this manual are based on intermittent operation of winch eight hours each day, five days per week. If winch is operated almost continuously or more than the eight hours each day, more frequent lubrication will be required. Also, lubricant types and change intervals are based on operation in an environment relatively free of dust, moisture, and corrosive fumes. Use only those lubricants recommended. Other lubricants may affect winch performance. Approval for use of other lubricants must be obtained from your Ingersoll Rand distributor. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage to winch and/or its associated components.

NOTICE
• Do NOT use synthetic lubricants in air motor. Synthetic lubricants will result in oil blowing by piston rings.
Correct lubrication is one of the most important factors in maintaining efficient winch operation.
1.The recommended grade of oil must be used at all times. Use of unsuitable oil may result in excessive temperature rise, loss of efficiency and possible damage to lubricated components. Refer to ‘Recommended Lubricants’ section.
2.Drain and replace oil in motor, disc brake and reduction gear after the first 50 hours of initial winch operation. Thereafter, drain and replace oil according to operating environment (yearly in NORMAL and HEAVY; quarterly in SEVERE), or more frequently if desired.
3.Always inspect removed oil for evidence of internal damage or contamination (metal shavings, dirt, water, etc.). If indications of damage are noted, investigate and correct before returning winch to service.
4.After winch operation, allow oil to settle before topping off.
5.Always collect lubricants in suitable containers and dispose of in an environmentally safe manner.
Refer to Dwg. MHP2126 on page 20.
The motor is splash lubricated by oil in motor housing and has no other means of lubrication. It is therefore important to use only good quality, non-detergent motor oil to ensure maximum performance and minimum downtime for repairs. Refer to ‘Recommended Lubricants’ section.
Oil capacity for the K5B-546 motor is 3 quarts (2.8 litres). Add oil through filler opening until oil flows from level plug hole. Add oil slowly to prevent spilling.
The motor should be level-checked daily or at the start of each shift after any accumulated water has been drained off. When motors are operated in temperatures below freezing, wait long enough at end of shift for water to separate from oil but not long enough for it to freeze. Drain water then refill to level plug (225), located on side of motor housing (217). If desired, all oil may be drained at end of shift and motor refilled with new oil.

K5B Motor Lubrication Locations
(Dwg. MHP2126)
Refer to Dwg. MHP0165 on page 54. Periodically, depending on winch usage and severity of environment, lubricate lever air throttle (local and remote) with recommended grease at grease fitting (246).
Follow wire rope manufacturer’s instructions. At a minimum, observe the following guidelines.
1.Clean with a brush or steam to remove dirt, rock dust or other foreign material on surface of wire rope.
CAUTION
• Do not use an acid-based solvent. Only use cleaning fluids specified by wire rope manufacturer.
2.Apply Ingersoll Rand LUBRI-LINK-GREEN or ISO VG 100 (SAE 30W) oil as a wire rope lubricant.
3.Brush, drip or spray lubricant weekly, or more frequently, depending on severity of service.
Refer to Dwg. MHP0140 on page 20.
It is recommend that the first oil change be done after approximately 50 hours initial operation. Always inspect removed oil for evidence of internal damage (metal shavings, dirt, water, etc.).
The reduction gear is filled to the correct levels prior to shipment from the factory. Check oil level before initial winch operation. This component is splash lubricated by oil in the housing and has no other means of lubrication. It is therefore important to use high quality Extreme Pressure (EP) rust and oxidation inhibited gear oil to ensure maximum performance and minimum down time for repair.
CAUTION
• Do not over fill. Excess oil will reduce operating efficiency and increase oil temperature.
To ensure correct performance, highest efficiency and long life, it is essential that lubricating oil be maintained at correct level. Rotate drum until fill plug is located at top dead center then add oil up to level plug hole. Oil capacity for reduction gear assembly is 4 quarts (3.8 litres).
Reduction Gear Lubrication Plug Locations
(Dwg. MHP0140)
Refer to Dwg. MHP1348 on page 20.
The friction plates and drive plates are in a self contained oil bath and have no other means lubrication. After an oil change or winch overhaul remove the breather plug (22) and pour a small amount of oil [4 to 6 ounces (0.2 litres)] through breather hole in brake housing. Allow oil to fully settle between fillings.
NOTICE
• If too much oil is added excess oil will be discharged through breather plug when control valve is actuated.
(Dwg. MHP1348)
If winch is disassembled, clean all parts thoroughly and coat bearings and seals with clean grease. Refer to ‘Recommended Lubricants’ section. Use sufficient grease to provide a good protective coat. Lubricate grease fittings monthly with 2 or 3 pumps of a grease gun.
20 |
MHD56037 - Edition 5 |
Refer to Dwg. MHP0155 on page 61.
Lubricate at least once every month, depending on environment and duty cycle, through grease fitting (139) located in gland (138) with 2 or 3 pumps of a grease gun.
If drum locking pin is disassembled, clean all parts thoroughly and coat with clean grease. Refer to ‘Recommended Lubricants’ section. Use sufficient grease to provide a good protective coat.
Lubrication will help to prevent rust and allow easier locking pin operation.
Inspection information is based in part on American Society of Mechanical Engineers Standards Safety Codes (ASME B30.7).
WARNING
•All new or repaired equipment should be inspected and tested by personnel instructed in safety, operation and maintenance of this equipment to ensure safe operation at rated specifications before placing equipment in service.
•Never use a winch that inspection indicates is damaged.
Frequent and periodic inspections should be performed on equipment in regular service. Frequent inspections are visual examinations performed by operators or personnel trained in safety and operation of this equipment and include observations made during routine equipment operation. Periodic inspections are thorough inspections conducted by personnel trained in safety, operation and maintenance of this equipment. ASME B30.7 states inspection intervals depend upon the nature of critical components of the equipment and severity of usage. The inspection intervals recommended in this manual are based on intermittent operation of winch eight hours each day, five days per week, in an environment relatively free of dust, moisture, and corrosive fumes. If winch is operated almost continuously, or more than eight hours each day, more frequent inspections will be required.
Careful inspection on a regular basis will reveal potentially dangerous conditions while still in the early stages, allowing corrective action to be taken before condition becomes dangerous. Deficiencies revealed through inspection, or noted during operation, must be reported to designated personnel instructed in safety, operation and maintenance of this equipment.
A determination as to whether a condition constitutes a safety hazard(s) must be decided, and correction of noted safety hazard(s) accomplished and documented by written report before placing equipment in service.
Inspection records, listing all points requiring periodic inspection should be maintained for all load bearing equipment. Written reports, based on severity of service, should be made on condition of critical parts as a method of documenting periodic inspections. These reports should be dated, signed by the person who performed inspection, and kept on file where they are readily available for authorized review.
Records should be maintained as part of a long-range wire rope inspection program. Records should include the condition of wire rope removed from service. Accurate records will establish a relationship between visual observations noted during frequent inspections and actual condition of wire rope as determined by periodic inspections.
MHD56037 - Edition 5
On equipment in continuous service, frequent inspection should be made by operators at the beginning of each shift. In addition, visual inspections should be conducted during regular operation for indications of damage or evidence of malfunction (such as abnormal noises).
1.WINCH. Prior to operation, visually inspect winch housings, controls, brakes, side rails and drum for indications of damage. Do not operate winch unless the wire rope feeds onto drum smoothly. Any discrepancies noted must be reviewed and inspected further by authorized personnel instructed in operation, safety and maintenance of this winch.
2.WIRE ROPE. Visually inspect all wire rope which can be expected to be in use during the day’s operations. Inspect for wear and damage indicated by distortion of wire rope such as kinking, “birdcaging,” core protrusion, main strand displacement, corrosion, broken or cut strands. If damage is evident, do not operate winch until the discrepancies have been reviewed and inspected further by personnel knowledgeable on wire rope safety and maintenance procedures.
NOTICE
• The full extent of wire rope wear cannot be determined by visual inspection. At any indication of wear inspect wire rope in accordance with instructions in “Periodic Inspection.”
3.AIR SYSTEM. Visually inspect all connections, fittings, hoses and components for indication of air leaks. Repair any leaks or damage.
4.PENDANT (optional feature). Ensure operation of pendant levers is smooth and winch is responsive to pendant control. Pendant levers must spring return to the neutral position when released.
5.MANUAL THROTTLE LEVER. Ensure operation of manual throttle lever is smooth and winch is responsive to lever movement. Lever must return to neutral and lock in place when released. If winch responds slowly or controls stick, do not operate winch until all problems have been corrected.
6.BRAKES. During winch operation test brakes. Brakes must hold load without slipping. Automatic brakes must release when winch motor throttle is operated. If brakes do not hold load, or do not release properly, brakes must be adjusted or repaired.
7.WIRE ROPE REEVING. Check reeving and ensure wire rope is properly secured to the drum. Do not operate winch unless wire rope feeds onto drum smoothly.
8.LUBRICATION. Refer to “LUBRICATION” section for recommended procedures and lubricants.
9.LIMIT SWITCHES (optional feature). If equipped, ensure limit switches engage and prevent operation at the required set point and with drum rotating in correct direction. Ensure limit switch properly resets.
21
10.MOTOR. During operation check motor housing for excess heat build up. Housing should not be hot to touch. Listen for grinding or knocking noises. Ensure lubricated air supply provides 6 to 9 drops per minute of ISO VG 32 (SAE 10W) oil when winch is operated at rated capacity. Operate winch slowly in both directions to verify operation.
Periodic inspection intervals for winch use under various conditions is listed below:
NORMAL |
HEAVY |
SEVERE |

Disassembly may be required as a result of frequent inspection findings or in order to properly inspect individual components. Refer to “MAINTENANCE” section on page 26. Maintain written records of periodic inspections to provide an accumulative basis for continuing evaluation. Inspect all items listed in “Frequent Inspection.” Also inspect the following:
1.SIDE RAILS AND UPRIGHTS. Check for deformed, cracked or corroded main components. Replace damaged parts.
2.FASTENERS. Check retainer rings, split pins, capscrews, nuts, and other fasteners on winch, including mounting bolts. Replace if missing or damaged and tighten if loose.
3.DRUM AND SHEAVES. Check for cracks, wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
4.WIRE ROPE. In addition to “Frequent Inspection” requirements, also inspect for the following:
a.Build-up of dirt and corrosion. Clean with steam or a stiff wire brush to remove dirt and corrosion if necessary.
b.Loose or damaged end connection. Replace if loose or damaged.
c.Check wire rope anchor is secure in drum.
d.Verify wire rope diameter. Measure diameter of wire rope from crown-to-crown throughout life of wire rope. Recording of actual diameter should only be done with wire rope under equivalent loading and in same operating section as accomplished during previous inspections. If actual diameter of wire rope has decreased more than 1/64 inch (0.4 mm) a thorough examination of wire rope should be conducted by an experienced inspector to determine suitability of wire rope to remain in service. Refer to Dwg. MHP0056 on page 22.
(Dwg. MHP0056)
5.ALL COMPONENTS. Inspect for wear, damage, distortion, deformation and cleanliness. If external evidence indicates damage, disassemble as required to conduct a detailed inspection. Inspect gears, shafts, bearings, sheaves, springs and covers. Replace worn or damaged parts. Clean, lubricate and reassemble.
6.BRAKES. Individually test brakes installed to ensure proper operation. Brakes must hold a 125% rated load at mid drum without slipping. If indicated by poor operation or visual damage, disassemble and repair brake(s). Check all brake surfaces for wear, deformation or foreign deposits. If brake lining thickness is less than minimum as described in “MAINTENANCE” section replace brakes. Clean and replace components as necessary. Adjustments cannot be made to disc brake. The disc brake must be repaired as described in “MAINTENANCE” section.
7.FOUNDATION OR SUPPORTING STRUCTURE. Check for distortion, wear and continued ability to support winch and rated load. Ensure winch is firmly mounted and that fasteners are in good condition and tight.
8.LABELS AND TAGS. Check for presence and legibility of labels. Replace if damaged or missing.
9.LIMIT SWITCHES (optional feature). Operate winch in both directions to activate limit switches. Limit switches should engage (stop winch operation) at established settings (+/- 2 feet [+/- 0.6 metres]). Reset limit switch by operating winch in opposite direction. Refer to ‘Limit Switch Adjustment’ in “MAINTENANCE” section.
10.DRUM GUARD (optional feature). Verify fasteners are tight and in good condition. Ensure guard is in good condition.
11.EMERGENCY STOP VALVE (optional feature). During winch operation verify emergency shut-off valve operation. Valve must stop winch operation quickly. Valve must reset properly. Refer to ‘Emergency Stop Valve’ in the “OPERATION” section for procedures.
