In order to ensure zero malfunctions during the use of chain hoists, a series of strict operating procedures and maintenance measures need to be followed. Here are some key steps and precautions:

1、 Preparation before operation

Equipment inspection:

Before each use, conduct a comprehensive inspection of the chain hoist, including the chain, hook, braking system, electrical components (if applicable), etc., to ensure that there is no damage, looseness, corrosion, and compliance with safety standards.

Check the rated load capacity of the equipment to ensure that it does not exceed its carrying capacity for operation.

Read the operation manual:

Read and understand the operation manual of the chain hoist in detail, understand the working principle, operating steps, safety precautions, and maintenance requirements of the equipment.

Training and Qualification:

Ensure that operators have received professional training, possess corresponding operating qualifications and certificates, and are familiar with safety regulations and emergency response measures for lifting operations.

2、 Correct operation

Smooth lifting:

During the lifting process, maintain a steady and uniform lifting speed to avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration.

Overloading is prohibited to ensure that the weight of the lifted object is within the rated load range of the equipment.

Pay attention to angle and balance:

Do not tilt or pull the load, ensure that the load is perpendicular to the crane, and the maximum allowable angle is generally not more than 10 degrees.

Before moving the load, confirm that it has been properly balanced to avoid lifting the load through only one point.

Use appropriate attachments:

Use appropriate attachments (such as slings, lifting beams) to handle the load, and pay attention to the center of gravity position of the load.

Pads should be added at the edges and corners where ropes and chains pass to prevent wear and breakage.

Clear command signals:

In multi person collaborative lifting operations, maintain smooth communication and use clear signals and gestures for command and coordination.

Comply with safety regulations:

Strictly comply with national and local safety regulations and legal requirements for lifting operations.

3、 Maintenance and upkeep

Regular inspection and maintenance:

Regularly inspect and maintain the chain hoist, including cleaning, lubrication, fastening, and other related tasks.

Check if the electrical components of the equipment (if applicable) are intact and if the grounding is reliable.

Recording and archiving:

Record and archive the results of each inspection and maintenance for future reference, in order to track the operation status of the equipment and detect problems in a timely manner.

Timely repair and replacement:

When equipment malfunctions or is damaged, timely repair or replacement of damaged parts should be carried out to ensure that the equipment is in good working condition.

4、 Other precautions

Safety device:

Ensure that the safety devices of the crane (such as limiters, brakes, etc.) are intact and effective, and are used correctly during operation.

Environmental safety:

Before operation, carefully observe the surrounding environment to ensure that there are no potential hazards such as personnel, obstacles, or electrical wires.

Emergency preparedness:

Develop emergency plans for lifting operations and regularly organize drills to ensure prompt and effective emergency response in case of emergencies.
