The equipment has a planetary gear for maximum mechanical efficiency. Verify your equipment is well lubricated. Apply grease
in the grease fitting every three months (only for models with that fitting).
Keep lubricated steel wire rope, if it is oxidized or is corroded by rain water or weather, please remove the entire wire rope and
apply the recommended lubricant. If corrosion has affected the wire rope, replace it.
