When storing pneumatic hoists, several precautions should be taken to ensure their safety, functionality, and longevity. Here are some key considerations:

General Precautions

Environment:

Store the pneumatic hoist in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent moisture and corrosion.

Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, as this can damage the materials and affect the performance of the hoist.

Cleaning and Inspection:

Before storing, clean the hoist thoroughly to remove any dirt, grease, or debris that could cause wear or corrosion.

Inspect the hoist for any signs of damage or wear, and repair or replace any worn or damaged parts as necessary.

Securing the Hoist:

Ensure that the hoist is securely stored to prevent it from falling or being damaged.

Use appropriate storage racks or shelves to keep the hoist in a stable position.

Specific Precautions for Pneumatic Components

Pressure Relief:

Before storing, relieve any pressure in the pneumatic system by opening any relief valves or bleeding off air pressure.

This prevents the risk of pressure building up and causing damage to the hoist or injury to personnel.

Lubrication:

*Lubricate moving parts, such as bearings and gears, to prevent wear and corrosion.

Use the recommended lubricants and follow the manufacturer's instructions for application.

Sealing and Protection:

Protect any exposed pneumatic components, such as air cylinders or valves, from dirt and debris.

Use covers or protective sleeves to keep these components clean and functional.

Long-Term Storage Considerations

Periodic Inspection:

If the hoist will be stored for an extended period, periodically inspect it to ensure that it remains in good condition.

Check for any signs of corrosion, wear, or damage, and take appropriate action to address any issues.

Storage Conditions:

Store the hoist in a clean, dry environment to prevent rust and corrosion.

Avoid storing the hoist in direct sunlight or in areas with high humidity.

Recommissioning:

Before using the hoist after a period of storage, inspect it thoroughly and perform any necessary maintenance or repairs.

Test the hoist in a safe environment to ensure that it operates correctly and safely.
