Ingersoll Rand LIFTSTAR Manual De Instalación página 11

To ensure continued satisfactory operation of the winch, all points requiring lubrication must be serviced with the correct lubricant at the proper
time interval as indicated for each assembly. Correct lubrication is one of the most important factors in maintaining efficient operation.
The lubrication intervals recommended in this manual are based on intermittent operation of the winch eight hours each day, five days per week.
If the winch is operated almost continuously or more than the eight hours each day, more frequent lubrication will be required. Also, the lubricant
types and change intervals are based on operation in an environment relatively free of dust, moisture, and corrosive fumes. Use only those lubricants
recommended. Other lubricants may affect the performance of the winch. Failure to observe this precaution may result in damage to the winch and/
or its associated components.
General Lubrication
Winches are supplied from the factory filled with oil.
Check oil and all lubrication levels prior to operating winch.
Wire Rope
Follow the wire rope manufacturer's instructions. At a minimum, observe
the following guidelines.
1. Clean with a brush or steam to remove dirt, rock dust or other
foreign material on the surface of the wire rope.
CAUTION
• Do not use an acid-based solvent. Only use cleaning fluids specified
by the wire rope manufacturer.
2. Apply a wire rope lubricant, Ingersoll-Rand LUBRI-LINK-GREEN or ISO VG 100 (30W) oil.
3. Brush, drip or spray lubricant weekly, or more frequently, depending on severity of service.
Motor
Correct lubrication is one of the most important factors in maintaining efficient winch operation. The motor is splash lubricated by the oil in the
motor housing and has no other means of lubrication. It is therefore important to use only quality, non-detergent motor oil to ensure maximum
performance and minimum downtime for repairs. Allow oil to settle before topping off. Pour sufficient oil into the vent cap opening to bring the
oil in the motor case to the level of the upper oil plug hole. Add oil slowly to prevent spilling.
Oil capacity for the POWAIR35, LS2000R, LS5000R, PS4000R and PS10000R winch motor is 1.3 litres.
Recommended Motor Oil:
Temperature
Below 0° C
0° to 27° C
Above 27° C
The motor should be level-checked daily or at the start of each shift after accumulated water has been drained off. When motors are operated in
temperatures below freezing, wait long enough at end of shift for water to separate from oil but not long enough for it to freeze. Failure to drain
the water when the winch is to remain idle for a protracted period at low temperatures may result in the oil splasher freezing fast. Drain the water,
and then refill to the level plug. If desired, all the oil may be drained at the end of the shift and the motor refilled with new oil.
Reduction Gear Assembly
Replace the EP oil in the reduction housing at least once every year. However, when the winch is used at a high frequency, the oil may need to be
changed on a more frequent basis.
Recommended Reduction Gear EP Oil:
Temperature
Below 0° C
0° to 27° C
Above 27° C
Pivot Points, Bushings, Seals and Bearings
Lubricate grease fittings monthly with 2 or 3 squirts from a grease gun. Use sufficient grease to provide a good protective coat.
