DISC BRAKE - GENERAL INFORMATION
Description
The disc brake for the FA5A winch bolts to the end of the winch opposite the motor. It has a cylindrical housing approximately twenty centimeters (eight inches) in diameter and ten centimeters (four inches) deep. There are eight socket head bolts located in the end cover. The disc brake has one air line running to it, a drain plug in the bottom, an oil level plug in the side, and a vented filler plug on the top.
(Dwg. MHP1218)
Operation
WARNING
Do not use this winch for lifting, supporting, or transporting people or lifting or supporting loads over people.
When the winch control handle is moved or the pendant control is operated, to haul-in the wire rope, a one-way clutch inside the disc brake allows free rotation of the winch drum without the need to disengage the brake. When the winch control handle is released or returned to the neutral position, or the pendant control button is released, the one-way clutch locks and the disc brake prevents the wire rope from paying-out. When the winch control handle is moved or the pendant control is operated to payout the wire rope, air pressure is directed to the brake. The air pressure releases the brake, and allows the winch drum to rotate.
Components
The disc brake is comprised of two main sections. The first is the housing and end cover plate. Under the cover plate is a diaphragm assembly. The second section is located in the brake housing and consists of a pressure plate, twelve springs, five friction and six separator plates, a one-way clutch with an inner and outer race, and a bearing pressed into a support plate. Refer to the parts drawing MHP0850 for additional information.
Function
The disc brake runs in an oil bath shared with the gearbox. The disc brake housing is bolted to the winch frame. It anchors the disc brake to the winch frame, and holds the oil that lubricates the brake. A flexible diaphragm is positioned between the end cover and the brake housing. When the winch control handle is moved or the pendant button is pushed to payout the wire rope, air pressure is introduced to the brake. The air pressure pushes on the diaphragm, which then presses on a metal diaphragm plate. The diaphragm plate transfers the force through three pins to a pressure plate.
Twelve springs constantly press on the pressure plate. The springs locate in pockets in the support plate. The spring pressure squeezes the friction and separator plates together, engaging the brake. The one-way clutch rides on inner and outer races. The one-way clutch’s inner race rotates in a bearing inside the support plate, and connects through the brake shaft to the gearbox and the winch drum. The one-way clutch’s outer race engages the friction plates which are located between the separator plates. Three dowel pins align the separator plates and engage them to the disc brake housing. When the plates are compressed together and the brake is engaged, there is a solid connection between the winch drum and the winch frame, and the winch drum cannot turn. Moving the winch control valve forward or pressing the pendant button to payout a load causes air pressure to relieve the spring pressure that compresses the brake discs together. This allows the winch drum to turn, and the wire rope to payout.
NOTICE
The dump valve and orifice release air pressure on the brake at a controlled rate so that the disc brake will engage promptly.
Section 1
WARNING
Prior to troubleshooting the disc brake, remove the wire rope from the winch drum. Failure to remove the wire rope can cause mechanical damage and/or injury.
There are two ways that the disc brake can cause problems:
1. It may fail to release.
2. It may slip or fail to engage properly.
DISC BRAKE TROUBLESHOOTING
WARNING
If the one way clutch has “rolled over” the winch may have been severely overloaded. If an overload is suspected, the winch drivetrain components and brake components (especially the one way clutch and the inner and outer races) must be closely inspected for damage, and replaced if necessary. Review the FA5A winch operating procedures to be sure that the load does not exceed the rated capacity of the winch.

MANUAL BAND BRAKE ASSEMBLY - GENERAL INFORMATION
Description
The optional manual band brake for the FA5A winch is located on the end of the winch drum next to the air motor. It consists of a friction material lined steel band (the brake band) that encircles and grips a brake surface on the winch drum, and a manually operated engagement and release mechanism.
Section 2
(Dwg. MHP1043)
Operation
The winch operator can engage the brake band at any time, whether the winch drum is turning in the haul-in direction, stationary, or turning in the payout direction. Moving the brake handle towards the winch turns an eccentric shaft which tensions the brake band, causing it to grip the brake surface and prevent the winch drum from turning. The handle will “over­center” and remain in the engaged position until released by the operator.
To release the manual brake, the operator must pull the handle away from the winch to the disengaged position allowing the winch drum to rotate freely. The winch operator needs only to apply light pressure (about 2.3 to 4.5 kg [5 to 10 pounds]) at the brake handle to engage the brake and prevent the winch drum from rotating, and only about 13.6 kg (30 pounds) to move the handle “over-center” in order to lock the brake in the engaged position.
The band brake is designed to work more efficiently in the payout direction than in the haul in direction. Therefore, if the brake is applied when hauling in, it may not completely stop the winch drum from turning.
Components
The band brake has two main assemblies. The first assembly consists of a friction material lined steel band that encircles and grips the brake surface at one end of the winch drum. The second assembly is the handle and eccentric assembly that tensions and releases the band when the winch operator moves the brake handle.
(Dwg. MHP1030)
Handle and eccentric assembly
Refer to Dwg. MHP1037 The brake handle has a splined end that engages an eccentric shaft passing through bearings in an brake bracket which bolts to the winch upright. There are two needle bearings pressed into the brake bracket, and are protected from contamination by ‘O’ rings that act as dirt exclusion seals.
(Dwg. MHP1037)
A cam plate pivots on the end of the eccentric shaft, and this plate is connected to the free end of the brake band by an adjustment bolt. The cam plate contains a self lubricating composite bearing (the sleeve bearing) that allows the cam plate to pivot freely when the brake is being operated. The adjustment bolt passes through a pivot bar, and is retained in the pivot bar by a jam nut that is permanently secured to the bolt. Turning the jamnut (using an open end wrench) adjusts the band brake. A locking capscrew acting on a soft bronze locking pellet prevents the adjustment bolt from turning once the brake is properly adjusted.
The locking pellet prevents the locking capscrew from damaging the adjustment bolt when the locking capscrew is tightened. The pivot bar allows the adjustment bolt to pivot slightly as the brake is tensioned and released.
Function
Brake band
The brake band is composed of a flat steel strip formed into a circular shape and lined inside with a friction material. Capscrews threaded through brackets welded to the brake band attach one end of the band to the eccentric assembly and fasten the other end to an brake bracket secured to the winch upright.

Adjusting the Manual Band Brake
1. Place the band brake handle in a completely released position. Take up some of the slack in the brake band by turning the adjustment bolt, and then tighten the locking capscrew to prevent the adjustment bolt from moving.
2. Move the control handle towards the engaged position. The handle should encounter growing resistance starting at about the last third of its travel. The resistance should not be enough to stop the handle from going “over-center” at the end of its travel. Make sure the handle does not contact the air motor adapter before it goes fully over-center. For maximum load holding capacity, the handle should just “over-center” before it touches the motor adapter. If it
Section 2
“over-centers” too soon, the brake holding capacity will be diminished. If it does over-center too soon, reposition it on the splined eccentric shaft and readjust the brake.
Testing the Manual Band Brake
1. Remove any load from the winch, or if possible remove the wire rope. If there is wire rope on the winch, this test may cause it to unspool.
2. Set the inlet air pressure to 6.3 bar (90 psig) static (while the air motor is not running).
3. If the winch is equipped with an automatic disc or band brake, it must be disengaged before testing the band brake. Disconnect the air line from the automatic disc or band brake, and plug it to prevent loss of air pressure. Apply and hold air pressure from an external source 3.5 to 6.3 bar (50 to 90 psig) directly to the air line fitting on the automatic disc or band brake while testing the manual band brake.
3. The force needed to move the handle “over-center” should be about 13.5 kg (30 lbs). If the handle cannot go “over-center,” or if there is excessive resistance, reduce the tension by turning the adjustment bolt in the counterclockwise direction. There must be slack in the band brake when the handle is in the released position. Always test the band brake before use.
4. Move the brake handle towards the winch until it goes fully “over-center.”
5. Move the winch control valve handle or operate the pendant control in the payout direction. The winch drum should not turn. If it does turn, review the information on troubleshooting the manual band brake.

AUTOMATIC BAND BRAKE - GENERAL INFORMATION
Description
The optional automatic band brake for the FA5A winch is located on the end of the winch drum next to the air motor. It consists of a friction material lined steel band (the brake band) that encircles and grips a brake surface on the winch drum, and a spring loaded pneumatic release assembly.
(Dwg. MHP0983)
Operation
Section 3
The friction material lined steel band remains tensioned, gripping the brake surface until the winch control valve or pendant control is operated to haul-in or payout a load. When the winch is hauling in or paying out a load, air pressure applied to a cylinder assembly releases the band brake and allows the winch drum to rotate freely. When the operator returns the winch control valve handle to the neutral position or stops operating the pendant control, the air pressure is shut off and spring pressure tensions the brake, preventing the winch drum from rotating.
Components
The automatic band brake consists of two main assemblies. The first consists of a brake band that encircles a brake surface on one end of the winch drum. The second is a spring loaded pneumatic release assembly that is activated by air pressure from the winch control valve or pendant control.
Piston
Cylinder Cylinder Rod
(Dwg. MHP0984)
(B) Brake bracket and plunger assembly
The brake bracket and plunger assembly is bolted to the drum side of the winch upright (next to the motor). Four capscrews fasten the brake bracket to the upright. Three more capscrews fasten one end of the brake band to the brake bracket. Inside the brake bracket is a plunger that is attached to the other end of the brake band by an adjustment bolt. The adjustment bolt runs through a pivot bar on the band and threads into the plunger. The pivot bar allows the adjustment bolt to pivot slightly as the brake is tensioned and released.

Brake band
The brake band is composed of a flat steel strip formed into a circular shape and lined inside with a friction material. Capscrews threaded through welded brackets anchor one end of the brake band to the winch and fasten the other end of the brake band to the pneumatic release assembly.
Dwg. MHP1030
Pneumatic release assembly
The pneumatic release assembly is composed of two parts: (A) the cylinder assembly, and (B) the brake bracket and plunger assembly.
(A) Cylinder assembly
The cylinder assembly consists of a cylinder that houses a cylinder rod, a piston, a nested pair of springs, and a cover that is secured to the cylinder by a retainer ring. The cylinder assembly threads through the side frame of the winch into the brake bracket and plunger assembly.
NOTICE
Additional important parts that allow the band brake to function properly are the dump-valve and the orifice. These parts thread into the side of the cylinder assembly, and release air pressure on the brake at a controlled rate allowing the band brake to engage promptly and without hesitation.
Function
The automatic band brake is spring actuated so that it is always tensioned unless the winch operator moves the winch control valve handle or operates the pendant control to haul-in or payout a load. Springs inside the cylinder assembly push on a piston that is connected to the cylinder rod. The cam shaped end of the cylinder rod engages a plunger inside the band bracket. The plunger is attached to the brake band by an adjustment bolt. While the springs press on the piston, the cylinder rod moves the plunger, pulls on the adjustment bolt, and tensions the brake.
When the operator moves the winch control valve or operates the pendant control, some air pressure is diverted to the brake cylinder. The air pressure acts on the piston to counteract the spring pressure and retract the cylinder rod. When the cylinder rod retracts, it allows the plunger to move the brake band into the released position. When the operator returns the winch control valve handle to neutral or stops actuating the pendant control, air pressure to the brake is shut off, the dump valve releases the air pressure from the cylinder, and the spring pressure pushes on the piston causing the band brake to engage.

Automatic Band Brake Assembly and Installation
If assembling from new, or if the air motor and upright have been removed for service, the easiest way to assemble the automatic band brake is to install everything except the cylinder assembly onto the upright and then mount the upright to the winch drum. The cylinder assembly can be installed after the air motor is in place. The assembly and installation of the band brake follows these same basic steps.
Cylinder Assembly
1. Lubricate and install the two small ‘O’ rings (110 and 109) onto the cylinder rod (108), and insert the cylinder rod into the piston (123).
2. Install the retainer ring (111) that holds the cylinder rod on the piston, and position the large ‘O’ ring (122) in the groove around the piston.
3. Thoroughly coat the cylinder rod, the ‘O’ rings, and the inside of the cylinder with Lubriplate Mo-Lith No. 2 (or equivalent) grease.
WARNING
Use care when removing or installing the end cover on the
cylinder. Use a sturdy press with at least 13 cm (5 inches) of travel, or use the threaded rod method. Failure to exercise caution can cause mechani­cal damage and/or injury.

When Brakeis properly adjusted, there should be a gap of approximately 14 mm (9/16 in.) between the Nut and the Cylinder End Cover.
(Dwg. MHP0983)
Testing the Automatic Band Brake
1. Thread a piece of 3/8 NC rod all the way into the cylinder rod. With the brake band slack and no air applied to the band brake, push the end of the threaded rod to position the plunger all the way inside the bracket. Turn a nut down the threaded rod until it is even with or just touching the cylinder cover. Apply air pressure to the band brake cylinder from an outside air source. When air pressure is applied to the cylinder, the nut on the threaded rod should move about 25 mm (1 inch) away from the cover. Tighten the adjustment nut to remove slack from the brake, and remove the air pressure from the cylinder. When you remove the air pressure, the nut should move closer to the cylinder end cover and then stop.
2. Repeat the process of applying air, adjusting, and removing air until the nut stops (when there is no air applied to the brake) at approximately 14 mm (9/16 inch) from the cylinder cover. Tighten the jam nuts closest to the plunger to fasten the adjustment bolt in position. Finally, remove the 3/8 NC threaded rod from the cylinder rod.
Section 3
1. Remove or pay out the wire rope until there is no load on the winch.
2. Set the inlet air pressure to 6.3 bar (90 psig) static (while the air motor is not running).
3. Disconnect the air line from the automatic band brake, and plug the air line to prevent the loss of air pressure. (This will keep the band brake tensioned during testing.)
4. If the winch is equipped with an automatic disc brake, it must be released before testing the band brake. Release the disc brake by applying air at 3.5 to 6.3 bar (50-90 psig) directly to the air line fitting on the disc brake housing.
5. Move the winch control valve handle or operate the pendant control in the payout direction. The winch drum should not turn. If it does turn, review the information on troubleshooting the band brake.

DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVE - GENERAL INFORMATION
Description
The air winch is controlled by a poppet type directional control valve that is either lever operated at the winch or pendant operated from a remote location. The winch operator can control the winch drum direction and speed by moving a lever on the winch control valve or by pressing a button on the remote pendant. Materials used in the construction of the valve include cast iron for the body, with corrosion resistant stainless steel and bronze for the internal parts.
The poppets are designed for zero air leakage when the valve is in the neutral position, and precise control of the air flow when the valve is operated. Inlet air pressure provides a balancing force on each inlet poppet to enhance control and reduce the lever force on manually operated valves.
Incorporated in the directional control valve are an exhaust air restrictor and a brake release valve for winches that are equipped with a disc brake. The exhaust air restrictor allows the winch operator to control the winch payout speed with the air motor instead of using the brake. The brake release valve causes the disc brake to release when the directional control valve lever is moved or the pendant button is pressed to run the winch in the payout direction.
When a winch is equipped with an automatic band brake, two
Section 4
brake release valves are installed in the control valve. One valve releases the band brake when the lever moves to the haul-in position and one releases the band brake when the handle moves to the payout position.
then moved towards or away from the operator. This action causes the control shaft to open the appropriate poppets and admit air to the winch motor.
Payout
When the winch operator manually moves the directional control valve lever to the right (when viewed from the motor end), the control shaft slides to the left and causes the right hand inlet poppet and the left hand exhaust poppet to open at the same time. Refer to drawing MHP1186. The inlet poppet admits high pressure air into the motor, and the exhaust restrictor poppet controls the air leaving the motor through the secondary exhaust port. This restriction regulates the payout speed of the winch, reducing brake use and increasing operator control of descending loads. If the winch is equipped with an automatic disc and/or band brake, a sleeve on the valve shaft activates a brake release valve(s) that release the brake(s).
Payout Position
A shuttle valve, mounted on a block on the directional control valve body, causes the brake release valve to release both the band and disc brake in the payout direction, and causes only the band brake to release in the haul-in direction.
Operation
The manual control lever pivots on a cross shaft running through an end cap bolted to the valve body. The lever is spring loaded so that the control valve returns and automatically locks into the neutral position. A clevis attached to the cross shaft engages a control shaft that runs lengthwise in the valve body.
Neutral
When the manual control lever is in the neutral position, no air is
admitted into the winch motor and the winch brake(s)
remains engaged. To run the winch, the directional
control valve lever must first be manually lifted and
Neutral Position
(Dwg. MHP1186)
Haul-in
When the winch operator moves the manual control lever to the left (when viewed from the motor end), the valve shaft slides to the right and causes the left hand inlet poppet valve and the right hand exhaust restrictor poppet to open at the same time. Refer to drawing MHP1185. The inlet poppet admits high pressure air into the motor, and the exhaust poppet allows air to leave the motor through the secondary exhaust port. If the winch is equipped with an automatic band brake only, a sleeve on the valve shaft activates a brake release valve.

REDUCTION GEAR - GENERAL INFORMATION
Description
The reduction assembly is a planetary gear type design. There are two planetary stages used in this reduction gear to achieve a 43:1 reduction. The air motor provides input to the first stage sun gear which turns the planet gears. The first stage planet gears are connected to the planet carrier which is connected to the sun gear of the second stage. The sun gear in the second stage drives the planet gears, in the second stage, which are connected to the planet carrier. The planet carrier in the second stage is connected to the outboard upright through the output shaft. This prevents planet carrier rotation. Rotation of the second stage planet gears causes the reduction gearbox housing to rotate. The housing is connected to the drum by the cover and capscrews.
Operation
Depending on which direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) the input shaft is turning will determine the direction of drum rotation. The speed of drum rotation is dependent on the speed of the input shaft. This allows the operator to vary the drum speed by controlling air motor speed. Planetary gears are not inherently self locking (as are some other types of gearing) it is therefore important that the braking systems work properly.
REDUCTION GEAR TROUBLESHOOTING
This section provides basic troubleshooting information. Specific causes to problems are best identified by thorough inspections performed by personnel instructed in safety, operation and maintenance of this equipment. The chart below provides a brief guide to common reduction gear symptoms, probable causes and remedies.
Symptom Cause Remedy
Grinding noise or excessive vibration when rotating.
No drum rotation Broken gear teeth. Disassemble, inspect and repair.
