1.2 Intended use Chain hoists are only intended for lifting, lowering and moving loads and may be
used as stationary or travelling units. The suspension/support structure for the
chain hoist must be designed for loads caused by operation of the chain hoist.
The chain hoists are designed for a period of use of at least 10 years until the rst
general overhaul is carried out. This is based on the condition that the operating
conditions (section 2.9), inspection and maintenance (section 7.3) are complied
with and that the specied group of mechanisms is not exceeded by the actual
duration of service. When the actual duration of service has reached the theoreti-
cal duration of service valid for the group of mechanisms, further operation of the
chain hoist is only permissible after a general overhaul.
The chain hoists are supplied with power from an AC power network. The voltage
and frequency of the AC power network must match the data specied on the
rating plate of the chain hoist. It must be possible to switch off powerfeed by
means of a device for disconnecting the powerfeed.
Electric chain hoists must only be operated when in perfect working order by
trained operating personnel. The relevant safety and accident prevention regula-
tions as well as the operating instructions must be complied with.
The load specied on the capacity plate indicates the highest permissible load
which must not be exceeded by the sum total of lifting load and load handling
attachment. Only approved load handling attachments may be used. The load
capacity of the load handling attachment must not be exceeded.
For attaching the load, attention must be paid to the following:
- the hook must not be hindered in its movement by the load handling
slings, e.g. getting caught in an inclined position,
- when the load is lifted, the hook must move to an upright position so that
the safety catch is not loaded by the load handling slings and, as a result,
may be damaged.
To protect the chain from impermissible torsion when the load turns, move-
ment of the hook assembly/bottom block must not be restricted.
The powered motions of lifting and lowering and, if applicable, cross travel and
long travel are controlled by means of the corresponding control elements of the
control pendant. The slow speeds are intended for attaching the load, lifting it
free and depositing it. Loads can be precisely positioned at slow speeds. At fast
speeds, short transport times can be reached. They are suitable for travelling
without load or safely suspended load, if no hazard may be caused by the faster
motion sequences.
9
1.3 Inappropriate use Certain work and practices are prohibited when using the chain hoist as they
may cause danger to life and limb and damage to the chain hoist, e.g.:
Do not handle the load in an unsafe manner (e.g. swinging the load).
Do not handle suspended loads above persons.
Do not pull or drag suspended loads at an angle.
Do not pull free xed or obstructed loads.
Do not exceed the maximum permitted load and permitted load dimensions.
Do not leave suspended loads unsupervised.
Do not touch the chain while lifting or lowering the load.
Do not allow chains to run over edges.
Do not use the chain as a load bearing sling.
Do not move loads by dragging on the control pendant.
Do not allow loads to drop when the chain is in a slack condition.
Do not subject the control switch to inappropriate mechanical loads.
Do not allow the control cable to be wound around the chain when lifting
motions are performed.
Transporting persons with the hoist unit is not permitted unless hoist units are
specically approved for transporting persons.
Do not manipulate electrical equipment.
Chain hoists must be suspended in such a way that they do not collide with
stationary equipment and structures, e.g. when slewing pivoting cranes.
The bottom block must not be twisted or turned over for 2/1 reeving arrange-
ments; chain links facing the same direction must be arranged opposite each
other without being twisted.
1.4 Basic information on The owner must ensure that the chain hoist is only operated when in proper work-
ing order and that the relevant safety requirements and regulations are complied
safety with.
Chain hoists must be taken out of service immediately if functional defects or irreg-
ularities are detected. When the chain hoist has been stopped as a consequence
of safety-relevant defects, it must be secured against putting into operation again
until an experienced technician is satised that the cause of the hazard situation
has been eliminated and that operation of the installation is possible without any
hazard.
To avoid accidents and damage, observe general statutory and other obligatory
regulations relating to accident prevention and environmental protection and basic
health and safety requirements as well as these operating instructions. Important
information and instructions are marked by corresponding symbols. The operating
instructions must be kept available at the place where they are available for infor-
mation to the operating personnel responsible at all times.
If the operating and safety instructions are not observed in any way, personal injury
or even death can result. The owner must instruct his personnel accordingly.
Special local conditions or applications can lead to situations which are not taken
into consideration in these operating instructions. In such cases, the required
safety measures must be determined and implemented by the owner. Necessary
measures may also relate, for example, to the handling of hazardous materials or
tools and the provision/wearing of personal protection equipment.
211033k1.indd/110707

The operating instructions must, if required, be supplemented by the owner with
instructions relating to the organization of work, working procedures, authorized
personnel, supervising and reporting obligations, etc..
Hazards for persons and property may be caused by chain hoists which are
not installed, operated and maintained appropriately or operated by unsuitable
personnel.
Persons under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medicines which affect reactions
must not install, operate, put into service, maintain, repair or disassemble chain
hoists.
Any conversions and modications to the installation require the written consent
of Demag. This also applies to the subsequent installation of safety devices as
well as for performing welds on load bearing parts. Safety devices must not be
rendered inoperative. All safety and hazard information on the chain hoist, at ac-
cess points and mains connection switches must be maintained in complete and
legible condition.
Installation, repair and maintenance work relating to chain hoists which are not
described in these operating instructions may only be carried out by qualied
specialist personnel with the specied equipment.
Work on electrical equipment of chain hoists may only be carried out by qualied
electricians in accordance with electrical regulations.
We urgently recommend you use genuine spare parts and accessories that have
been approved by Demag. This will ensure that the safety and service life of the
chain hoist is guaranteed. In the circuits, only fuse links with specied amperage
and tripping characteristics may be used. Defective fuse links must not be bridged.
Observe prescribed deadlines or those specied in the operating instructions for
routine checks/inspections.
1.5 Selection and quali- For independent operation or maintenance of the chain hoist, the owner may only
assign persons
cation of operating
who are mentally and physically suitable,
and maintenance who have been instructed in the operation or maintenance of the chain hoist
personnel and have proven their qualication to the owner in this respect (this also in-
cludes practical application and the ability to identify defects which are a hazard
to safe operation),
who can be expected to carry out the work assigned to them reliably.
If the chain hoist is used as the hoist unit in a crane, operating persons must also
be at least 18 years of age.
1.6 Safety instructions Installation and disassembly work may only be performed by experienced
technicians.
for installation and Installation and disassembly work must be co-ordinated by the person carrying
disassembly out the work and the owner within the scope of their responsibility.
The working and danger zone must be made safe.
The installation must be isolated in accordance with the relevant electrical
regulations.
Customer-specic regulations must be observed.
Only appropriate, tested and calibrated tools and equipment may be used.
The electrode holder and earth must be connected to the same assembly
when welding work is carried out (if the current ow is returned via protective
conductors, screening elements or anti-friction bearings, serious damage may
be caused to these or other components).

1.7 Safety instructions The working and/or danger zone must be made safe.
when rst putting Before the chain hoist is rst put into operation, an experienced technician must
carry out the following checks:
the unit into serv-
The voltage and frequency specied on the capacity plates must match the
ice after completing owners mains power supply.
installation The supporting structure must be in proper condition and be sufciently rated
for the load capacity of the chain hoist.
Safety devices must be completely tted and effective.
Clearances and safety distances must be complied with.
The emergency stop device must be checked by actuating the emergency stop
button.
For powered chain hoists with a load capacity of more than 1000 kg and/or ap-
plication of a powered chain hoist with an electrical travel drive as a rail-mounted
travelling hoist or a crane, these checks must be carried out by an expert engineer.
1.8 Safety instructions Before starting operation of the chain hoist, it must be ensured that nobody is en-
dangered by operation of the hoist. During lifting processes, mechanical hazards
for operation may be caused, for example, by falling loads, collision of the chain hoist or the load
or by effects of the load, the load handling attachment or the chain on persons or
objects. If the operator notices that persons are endangered during operation, he
must suspend operation until a sufcient distance to the person(s) endangered is
guaranteed.
When starting work, the operator must be satised that the chain hoist is in safe
and correct operating condition. This includes checking the function of the brakes,
end position limitations and emergency stop devices. All protection devices must
have been installed and must be fully functioning.
In the event of defects which endanger safe and reliable operation, the chain hoist
must be taken out of service without delay. Defects relevant to safety in this sense
are, for example:
Damage to electrical devices, cables or insulation,
Delayed functioning or failure of brakes and safety devices,
Missing covers or housing parts,
Damage to the chain or to supporting parts,
Damage to the chain collector or its suspension arrangement.
Anybody who identies an immediate danger of personal injury must actuate the
emergency stop button without delay. This also applies in the case of damage oc-
curring to parts of the installation and equipment which makes immediate stoppage
necessary.
When the chain hoist has been stopped as a consequence of safety-relevant
defects by an emergency stop, it must be secured against putting into operation
again until an experienced technician is satised that the cause of the hazard
situation has been eliminated and that operation of the installation is possible
without any hazard.
12
Functioning of the slipping clutch
The chain hoist is tted with a slipping clutch that is tripped in the event of over-
load. The brake is then automatically applied and the motor is switched off. In this
situation, only lowering is still possible. It is therefore not possible to lift an overload
from the ground. A load already suspended can be safely deposited by actuating
the lowering button. When the lowering motion has been completed, lifting is pos-
sible again.
If the slipping clutch switches off already at rated load, the slipping force must be
measured by an experienced technician and re-adjusted, as required.
1.9 Safety instructions for The owner of the chain hoist must ensure that the specied maintenance work is
carried out appropriately on the chain hoist. Maintenance measures are dened as
maintenance regular maintenance, inspection and repair work.
Maintenance work must be carried out by sufciently qualied specialist personnel
(experienced technicians). Unauthorized personnel must not be allowed to carry
out maintenance work on the chain hoist.
The necessary inspection, adjustment and maintenance work and the relevant
time intervals are specied in the operating instructions, section 7.
Before starting any maintenance work, the chain hoists must be switched off and
taken out of service and secured against accidental or unauthorized putting into
operation (restarting), unless specied otherwise in section 7. Ensure that all
switches are locked.

reection of noise from walls, etc.
were not allowed for in the above measurements.
2.7 Transportation and Demag chain hoists, the accessories and the trolleys are shipped in cardboard
packaging or on pallet.
storage
Owing to the horizontal arrangement of the chain hoist on the pallet during trans-
port/storage, a plug screw suitable for transport is tted instead of the vent valve
to avoid oil leakage. Before putting the chain hoist into operation, replace it by the
vent valve included in the supply, see section 4.3.
Store chain hoists and accessories in a dry place.
Temperature range for transportation and storage -25 oC to +55 oC.
2.8 Surface protection As standard, the chain hoist is supplied with corrosion protection (powder coating/
paint nish) in the following colours:
and painting
Chain hoist RAL 5009 Azure blue

3 Description
3.1 Drive A robust pole-changing AC asynchronous motor is used as hoist motor. The brake
is arranged on the load side so that after tripping of the slipping clutch, a slipping
load is braked. The bake is released electrically. Pressure springs ensure auto-
matic brake application when the motor current is switched off or in the event of
a power failure. The control system automatically switches the brake in the upper
and lower end positions of the lifting path, when the slipping clutch is tripped and
in the event of error statuses. From the fast speed (8-pole winding), the hoist drive
is decelerated to creep speed (2-pole winding) by means of a speed-controlled
electrical brake. Mechanical braking is only effective for braking from creep lifting
to standstill or when the emergency-stop button is actuated at main hoist speed.
The brake is maintenance-free for up to 5 years.
3.2 Gearing and slipping The slipping clutch is arranged between the motor shaft and the gearbox input
shaft. It performs the function of the emergency limit stop device for the highest
clutch and lowest hook position and protects the Demag chain hoist against overloads.
The geared limit switch prevents that the slipping clutch as an emergency-stop
device is approached during normal operation. The fast-to-slow switching contact
of the geared limit switch prevents that the slipping clutch is approached at fast
speed when the operating limit switch is passed. The slipping clutch also fullls the
EC directive requirements regarding a load control device starting with an SWL of
1000 kg.
The brake arranged on the load side prevents load sinking when the unit is at rest.
Monitoring of the slipping clutch and automatic cut-out of the drive in the event of
slip increase the service life and protect the slipping clutch against overload and
incorrect use. The gearbox and the slipping clutch are maintenance-free for up to
10 years.

3.3 Chain drive The special Demag chain is of high strength ageing-resistant material with a high
degree of surface hardening, galvanised with additional surface treatment. The
dimension tolerances of this chain have been precisely adapted to the chain drive.
We therefore urgently recommend that the Demag special chain be used to ensure
safe operation. The maximum service life of the chain can only be reached, if the
specied regular lubrications are appropriately carried out. When a chain is re-
placed, the entire chain drive is always replaced. For this purpose a chain set that
can be easily replaced is available. The chain set offers the following benets:
In the case of special ttings on the chain hoist, make sure that an appropriate
counterweight compensation is taken into account. Suspension of the chain hoist
at an angle results in premature wear of the chain drive.
3.4 Housing The housing of the chain hoist is of strong light-weight cast aluminium. The fan
cover on the motor, the movable chain collector and the electrical equipment cover
are of particularly impact-resistant plastic material.

3.5 Electrical equipment The chain hoist is provided with a modular 24-V contactor control system. The
contactor control system is supplemented by an electronic system with program-
controlled functions. This electronic system detects the control commands that are
tripped by the operator with the control pendant. Permissible control commands
generate switching commands for the contactors to control the hoist motor. The
electronic system monitors the control sequence specied by the operator based
on the speed feedback from the drive shaft, the limit switch contacts and, if ap-
plicable, from the thermal contacts of the motor. In the event of any discrepancies,
the chain hoist is automatically brought to a safe status and warning or error mes-
sages are generated. The positively disconnected emergency stop contact of the
control pendant immediately opens the circuit for the contactor supply so that the
motor is de-energized and the brake is applied. As standard, the control system
features the following characteristics:
Geared limit switches with 4 contacts for fast-to-slow and nal cut-off;
Plug-type connections for control pendant, power supply, motor connection,
brake, limit switches;
7-segment display for operating hours, operating status and error messages;
Infrared interface for wireless transmission of service data.
For manual control, Demag control pendants are connected via plug-in connectors.
For Demag DC chain hoists without electric trolleys, the compact DSC optimised
for this application is used, the DSE-C for applications with electric trolleys.

3.6 Control pendant The control cable is protected by a exible easily bent strain relief hose. It can be
specically adapted in its suspension height to the requirements at the workplace
height adjustment at any time by means of an adjusting mechanism. To do this, it is not necessary
to cut the cable conductors or to shorten the strain relief hose. The control cable
that is not required is accommodated in the cable collector. The strain relief hose
is xed at the selected suspension height by means of a self-locking clamping
mechanism. The control pendant can be adjusted to a different suspension height
by unlocking the clamping mechanism.
The strain relief hose for the control pendant consists of an abrasion-resistant
fabric hose with ame-protection impregnation.
In the gripping area (0,8) of the strain relief hose, the control cable is re-inforced by
means of rubber-elastic ller material.
3.7 Control pendant For manual cable-connected control of the chain hoist, the DSC control pendants
(lifting/lowering) or the DSE-C (2 to 3 axes) are to be used. Both control pendants
feature the same plug-in connection for the control cable. The control cable and
the control pendant are connected by means of a bayonet lock.
The shock and impact-resistant DSC and DSE-C housings of high quality thermo-
plastic are resistant to fuels, salt water, greases, oils and alcaline solutions, type
of enclosure IP 65.
Strong mineral (e.g. hydrochloric or sulphuric) acids may, however, corrode pen-
dant switch housings. To avoid this, they must be replaced in good time.
The rubber button caps may be subject to premature wear under aggressive oper-
ating conditions (contact with corrosive substances or special chemicals). Replace
any damaged button caps in good time.
3.8 Suspension The suspension bracket facilitates installation. The chain hoist can be directly sus-
pended in the trolley. The suspension bracket is also suitable for quickly changing
the installation site since it performs the function of the suspension hook. It is not
necessary to dismantle existing trolleys.
The suspension bracket is asymmetrical and must be correctly positioned for tting
(depending on the reeving arrangement, see section 4.3) to ensure straight sus-
pension of the chain hoist. If the suspension bracket is tted inappropriately, the
elements of the chain drive are subject to premature wear.

3.9 Trolley The load capacity of the Demag chain hoist must not exceed the load capacity of
the trolley.
I beam track
The use of I beams with parallel or sloping anges according to DIN 1025 as
tracks is possible.
The track radius should be as large as possible in order to ensure good travel
characteristics.
I beam tracks should be bent with the utmost care in order to obtain a clean,
regular curve.
Hoist travel on I beam tracks must in no way be obstructed by protruding suspen-
sion bolts, screw heads, clamping plates, joint anges, etc.
Resilient buffers should be mounted at travel wheel axle level at the ends of tracks
in order to prevent the trolley from derailing (e.g. Demag clamp-tted buffers).

formed.
A winding protection for the
upper area of the control cable
is available from the manufac-
turer on request.
42599955.eps
4.5 Mains connection To connect the chain hoist to the power supply, the mains connection cable, the
mains connection fuse links and the devices for disconnecting and switching the
powerfeed must be available on site. For power supply, a 4-lead cable with an
earth lead (PE), which complies with the table in section 2.4, is required.
The earth lead must always be connected and the continuity of the earth
lead connection up to the connection point of the chain hoist must be
checked in order to safely obtain the stipulated protection against contact
voltages.
Please note that the length of the supply cable specied for a given cross section
must not be exceeded in order to avoid excessive voltage drop and malfunctions
during start-up of the motor caused by undervoltage.
First check whether the voltage and frequency specied on the capacity plate
match your mains supply. Ensure that the mains connection cable is at zero
voltage and secured against accidental restoration of the power supply.
Use the mains connection set included in the delivery to produce the plug-in
connection for the mains connection cable.

4.6 Geared limit switch Demag DC16/25 chain hoists are provided with a geared limit switch as standard.
The signals of the geared limit switch are only used for the internal control system,
wiring by the customer is not possible at the moment.
The geared limit switch is tted under the electrical equipment cover and limits the
lifting path in the upper and lower end positions. Limit switching in each direction
is via a fast-to-slow switch which cuts out the fast speed stage and a following limit
switch which stops the movement. The fast-to-slow switch guarantees that the end
position can only be approached at slow speed so that the max. lifting path can
be used for operation. If the nal limit switch is passed in the event of an error, the
monitored slipping clutch is tripped as the emergency cut-off device. The lifting
motion and the motor are switched off and a warning is displayed.
When the hoist is delivered, the fast-to-slow switch and the nal limit switch are set
in such a way that the max. lifting path can be used for operation. If required, the
usable lifting path can be shortened by a different setting of the cut-out points.
For tolerance reasons, the min. distance between lower edge of chain entry plate
and upper edge of hook assembly / bottom block is approx. 22 mm.
Any settings of the cut-out points which extend the lifting path beyond the pre-set
points are not permissible and result in tripping of the emergency cut-off device
with increased wear on the chain.
In section 4.6.3, setting instructions for the geared limit switch are provided. Any
changes to the setting of the geared limit switch may only be carried out by expe-
rienced technicians. In most cases, only the lower cut-out position needs to the
adapted to the actual suspension height when the chain hoist is installed.
In the case of a low suspension height of the chain hoist, if the upper end position
is within hand range of the operating personnel, crushing or shearing points may
be caused by the load or the load handling attachment when the upper end posi-
tion is approached. In these cases, the approachable upper position can be set
at a lower point, as required, by means of the geared limit switch in order to avoid
any hazard.

Operating principle Each contact is allocated to a cam disk which is innitely adjustable.
The cam disks can be adjusted independently by means of the individual adjusting
screws.
Adjustment When the individual adjusting screw is turned clockwise, the cam disk is also
turned clockwise. The switching point is shifted upwards in accordance with the
hook path.
When the screw is turned anti-clockwise, the switching point is shifted downwards.
Setting the contacts for individual The geared limit switch is already permanently connected with the control system
adjustment: via the system connector cable. Move the load hook of the chain hoist into the
specied switch-off position. Turn the individual adjusting screw until the contact
maker opens the contact to set the contacts.
If the run-on path is exceeded, the contact either opens or closes.
Setting the contacts for adjustment The contacts are adjusted in blocks by means of the block adjusting screw. All cam
in blocks: disks are adjusted together, while the relative adjustment of the individual contacts
remains unchanged. When the block adjusting screw is turned clockwise, the cam
disks are also turned clockwise.
Approach switch-off points several times to check the limit switch functions
are operating correctly!
4.6.4 Removing and tting the If the geared limit switch is removed and tted again, secure the screws with

5.2.3 Control pendant jumper The control pendant jumper is tted for transmitting control signals 24 V AC (tri-
module state signals) from the DSC and DSE10-C control pendant to the hoist control
system (always included in the basic scope of delivery, unless another module is
tted in this place).
If control pendant signals with a higher control voltage are used (e.g. the DST
control pendant), the KT3 signal converter must be connected instead of the
control pendant jumper (see section 5.2.6). For the radio control system, the
DRC-DC radio receiver module is connected at this place (see section 5.2.4).
The control pendant jumper is plugged directly onto the hoist control system (be-
tween multiple connectors X19 and X22) and locked by means of a plastic spacer.

5.2.4 Radio receiver module The radio receiver module is needed for operation with the wireless DRC-DC6 and
DCR-DC10 hand-held transmitters.
In this case, the DC 16/25 hoist control system must be provided with the receiver
module instead of the control pendant jumper.
The radio receiver module is plugged directly onto the hoist control system (be-
tween multiple connectors X19 and X22) and locked by means of a plastic spacer
(see section 5.2.1).
A dummy plug (lower plug on the outer side of the electrical equipment cover)
must be tted at the control pendant input of the hoist control system (X3).
The dummy plug is provided with a wire jumper between X3.A7 and X3.B3 which
supplies the voltage for the radio receiver module.

BE function When pole-changing squirrel cage rotor travel motors are switched down from fast
to slow speed, unwanted loads on mechanical components and load sway result.
It is therefore recommended to use the integral BE (brake application) function in
conjunction with the DRC-DC radio remote control system. This ensures that me-
chanical braking is started when the fast travel speed has been switched off. Only
after expiration of an adjustable delay time can the slow travel speed be switched
on again.
Description of BE function
This BE function is only available for long travel. The time is set on the receiver
module by means of jumper J3. It is possible to set deceleration times of 0 (0 =
switched off, factory setting), 1, 2, 2.5, 3 seconds.
After the fast speed (V2) signal has been switched off, the fast and the slow speed
(V1) contacts open and thus generate mechanical braking. Upon expiration of the
time interval set and if the control signal (slow) is available, the drive is switched on
again at slow speed. If V2 is switched on again during the braking time, the con-
tacts for V1 and V2 close without delay, i.e. the fast speed is switched on again.
Select time interval so that upon expiration of this braking time the travel drive is
braked from V2 to V1.
The times can be set as follows by means of the jumper for the parking position:
The time now remains saved until a new value is set, also if a reset has been car-
ried out.
Ensure that the jumper is removed again, as otherwise the radio control system is
not ready for operation.
211033k3.indd/110707
58
Emergency control
Emergency control by means of a cable-connected control pendant is easily pos-
sible with a DSE10-C. Instead of the dummy plug, the DSE10-C is connected and
thus it is possible to control the crane axes without any further adjustments.

In the course of the annual inspection, all wearing parts are checked.
If routine maintenance reveals that the intervals are too long, they should be
adapted to the specic operating conditions.
Only use genuine Demag parts or parts approved by Demag for repairs (see
accessories/component parts list).
The use of spare parts not approved by Demag renders any liability and guarantee
claims void.

7.5 General overhaul GO The theoretical duration of service D (hours at full load h) depends on the group of
mechanisms classication of the chain hoist. The actual duration of service is to be
determined annually in accordance with FEM 9.755. During the annual inspection
by our after-sales service, you may have the actual service life determined.
Upon expiration of 90% of the theoretical duration of service if the chain hoists
are correctly classied after 8 to 10 years the owner must arrange for a general
overhaul GO to be carried out. A general overhaul must be carried out on reaching
the end of the theoretical duration of service, at the latest.
During the general overhaul the following parts must be replaced in addition to the
checks and work specied in the inspection and maintenance schedule:
Gearing parts,
Gear oil and seal,
Connecting elements,
Shaft sealing rings, bearings, plugs,
Brake,
Slipping clutch.
The small parts (screws, washers, etc.) to be replaced during maintenance and
assembly work are not listed separately.
The general overhaul carried out by the manufacturer or an authorized specialist
company fullls the condition for continued operation of the chain hoist.
Thus the relevant accident prevention regulations and the BGV D8 (VBG 8) are
complied with.
Further utilization is approved when an expert engineer has entered the condi-
tions for further utilization into the test and inspection booklet. The completion of
the general overhaul must be conrmed in the test and inspection booklet and a
further period of utilization in accordance with FEM 9.755 must be entered.

7.8 Measures for achieving The safety and health provisions of EC directive 98/37/EC make it a legal require-
ment to eliminate special hazards which may be caused by, for example, fatigue
safe working periods and ageing.
S.W.P. This requirement is also reected in the third supplement to German accident
prevention regulations UVV/BGV D8 (VBG 8) of 1.4.1996.
This requirement obliges the owner of serial hoist units to determine the actual
duration of service of the chain hoist on the basis of the operating hours, load
spectra and/or recording factors. This is based on FEM 9.755/06.1993 Measures
for achieving safe working periods for powered serial hoist units (S.W.P.).
The objective of this rule is to determine measures for achieving safe working
periods over the entire duration of service, although, according to the state-of-
the-art, the hoist units are designed for specic periods of operation.
Premature failure cannot, however, be ruled out.
The following items have been taken from FEM rule 9.755 with reference to the
electric chain hoist:
1. The actual duration of service determined on the basis of operating time and
load must be documented at least once per year.
2. The operating time Ti (number of operating hours) can be estimated or read on
an elapsed time indicator.
3. The load kmi (load spectrum) must be estimated.
4. The value determined for operating time Ti using an elapsed time indicator must
be multiplied by the type of recording factor f = 1,1.
5. The value determined for the estimated operating hours and load spectrum
must be multiplied by the type of recording factor f = 1,2.
6. The actual duration of service S is calculated as: S = kmi x Ti x f
7. A general overhaul must be carried out on reaching the theoretical duration of
service.
8. All checks and inspections and the general overhaul must be arranged by the
owner of the hoist unit.
The actual duration of service is considerably increased if the chain hoist is only
operated with partial load. For a chain hoist operated on average with half load,
for example, this results in an 8-fold increase in the actual duration of service, with
operation at one quarter of the full load, a 64-fold increase.
211033k3.indd/110707

7.8.1 Calculating the actual The actual duration of service S of the electric chain hoist can be determined as
duration of service S follows:
S = kmi x Ti x f
Calculating the number of hours of The operating time can be calculated by means of an elapsed time indicator or
operation (operating time) Ti (by the according to the following method:
owner) Operating time per inspection interval:
Only lifting and lowering movements are counted, long and cross travel times are
not taken into consideration.
Estimating the load spectrum factor To simplify estimation, each type of load can be grouped together into km load
kmi (by the owner) spectrum modules. The types of load are simplied and quoted as 1/4, 1/2, 3/4
load and full load.
Dead loads are added to the loads. Loads up to 20% of the rated load capacity are
not taken into consideration.
The operating time for each type of load is divided up within the inspection interval
(e.g. 1 year) in terms of percentage.
The following bar diagram shows the km load spectrum modules for the load condi-
tions without load up to full load in time increments of 5 and 10%. Larger shares of
the time period must be correspondingly added together.
The load spectrum factor kmi can be obtained by adding together the individual km
load spectrum modules.

8.8 Adjusting the slipping During the nal inspection in the factory, the slipping clutch is set to the load
capacity of the chain hoist. The setting complies with the requirements of
clutch EN 14492 -2 for slipping clutches as overload protection. An increase of the
tripping torque which exceeds the factory setting is not permitted.
The slipping clutch is protected against overload by slip monitoring so that re-set-
ting is only necessary during the general overhaul. If owing to the operating condi-
tions or malfunctions, the setting needs to be checked, the friction force checking
device, part no. 836 708 44, must be used. Inspection and adjustment may only be
carried out by an experienced technician in compliance with the instructions, publi-
cation 206 974 44. The adjustment is shown in the gure below. In order to meas-
ure the set slipping force with the checking device, the chain must be inserted in
the slipping force sensor at the chain entry point of the load chain. Then unlock the
emergency-stop button and run the slipping force sensor against the chain entry
point at creep lifting speed. After unlocking the emergency-stop and actuating the
lifting motion, slip monitoring is by-passed for 3 seconds so that the slipping force
can be read in the display of the checking device. After this period, slip monitoring
switches off the slipping clutch with an error message. If required, this process can
be repeated after the emergency-stop has been actuated and unlocked again.

8.9 Gearbox / oil change Oil lubrication
Under normal operating conditions, the lubricant must be changed at least every
10 years.
Under exceptional conditions, e.g. increased ambient temperatures, we recom-
mend that oil changes be adapted to suit these conditions.
Oil change
Drain the old oil at operating temperature. To do this, rst remove the left air vent
screw and the screw plug on the right. Turn the gearbox in such a way that the oil
is drained. The ushing oil should have a viscosity of 46 68 mm2/s at 40 C.
The quantity of ushing oil used should be approximately twice that specied for
lubrication. Then ush the gears by switching the hoist on and allowing the hook to
run several times over the entire length of its path. Then drain the ushing oil and
rell the gearbox with new oil. The required quantity and grade of oil are specied
below.
Oil grades
Universal gear oil Shell Donax TD 10W-30 with wear-minimising additives, range
of viscosity 10W-30.
For higher or lower ambient temperatures than -20 C to + 40 C, contact the
manufacturer.

Errors
Functioning of the chain hoist is only possible when it is correctly connected to the
power supply. In the event of a failure, therefore rst check cables, strain relief and
power supply connections. Malfunctions may also be caused by incorrect transmis-
sion of commands from the control pendant. Therefore, check the control pendant
and the control cable for damage and the plug-in connector on the pendant and in
the service enclosure for correct t.
