Maintenance Scheduling
The owner is to ensure proper inspection intervals, in
compliance with the API RP 2D Section 4 requirements or
the ANSI B30.5, 5-2.3, and will review hoist usage
categories on a periodic basis. A qualified inspector should
perform all maintenance and inspections.
• For hoists in occasional use, less than 10 hours per
month, API RP 2D recommends a pre-use inspection
and an annual 12-month inspection based on average
use over a quarter.
• For hoists in moderate use, more than 10 but less than
50 hours per month, API RP 2D recommends a pre-use
inspection, quarterly inspection, and an annual 12-
month inspection based on average use over a quarter.
• For hoists in heavy use, more than 50 hours per month,
API RP 2D recommends a pre-use inspection, monthly
inspection, quarterly inspection, and an annual 12-
month inspection.
Oil Level Maintenance
The oil level in the gearbox and brake housing should be
checked and adjusted as part of the pre-use inspection. If the
oil level drops frequently or oil leakage is detected during an
inspection, maintenance should be performed to correct any
problems.
Oil Change Interval
The oil in the gearbox and brake sections is recommended to
be changed every 1000 hours or 6 months of usage.
Hoist Brake Oil
Check Hoist Brake Oil
.
To check the hoist brake oil, remove the vent and fill plug
(Figure 5-1) and visually inspect the oil level. The maximum
fill capacity for the hoist brake is 0.23 liter (0.25 quart).
Drain /Add New Hoist Brake Oil
To drain and add new oil, remove the drain plug (Figure 5-1),
inspection plug and vent plug and drain the brake oil.
Reinstall drain plug and add fluid at the brake oil vent hole
until oil is at the bottom level of the inspection hole. Install the
inspection plug and the oil vent and fill plug. The hoist brake
fill capacity is 0.23 liter (0.25 quart).

Hoist Gearbox Oil
Hoist Gearbox Oil Change
Gearbox oil is drained by first removing the drain plug (33,
Figure 5-2) by rotating the drum so that the plug is visible
through the lower hole in the side plate (See view 1). Screw
in a piece of 1 inch pipe to allow the oil to drain, and then with
a hex wrench remove the drain plug located inside of the 1
inch pipe (See view 2). Examine the used oil for signs of
significant metal deposits, and then dispose of it in a proper
manner. Remove the 1 inch pipe.
Rotate the drum so that the port is visible through the upper
hole in the side plate. Install a 1 inch pipe with elbow into the
upper hole in the side plate (See view 3). Fill the gearbox
DANGER
Do not, under any circumstances, work at an elevated
height without using proper fall protection as required by
local, state, or federal regulations.
CAUTION
The maximum fill capacity for the hoist brake is 0.23 liter
(0.25 quart). Over-filling the hoist brake can cause
damage to the hoist.
