Inspection, Service & Repair - Columbus McKinnon YLITP ATEX 500 Instrucciones De Servicio

Attention: Depending on the type of load picked up, note that the lifting height may be
reduced for models with chain container!
Lowering the load
Pulling the hand chain in anticlockwise direction will lower the load.
Make sure that neither the hand chain nor the load chain (nor the chain for operating the
optional locking device) can hit the ground or against any other object.
ATTENTION: If this is not possible, consult the manufacturer!
Fitting the hand chain on the trolley
(models Yalelift ITG and LHG only and models with locking device)
To fit the hand chain, position the slot in the outer edge of the hand chain wheel below the
chain guides. Place one link of the endless hand chain vertically into the slot and turn the hand
chain wheel until the hand chain has passed the chain guides on both sides.
ATTENTION: Do not twist the hand chain while fitting.
Travelling the push-type trolley
The push-type trolley is actuated by pushing the attached load or the suspended load lifting
attachment. It must not be pulled.
For travelling with or without a load, the speed of 1 m/s must not be exceeded.
Travelling the geared-type trolley
Geared-type trolleys are moved by pulling the appropriate hand chain fall.
Operation of the locking device (optional for models with integral trolley)
The locking device is exclusively used for easily locking the unloaded trolley (parking position
in the shipping sector, for example). The brake shoes are pressed against the beam flange by
pulling on the appropriate hand chain fall so that the chain wheel turns clockwise. Only tighten
the chain by hand for this process. The locking device is released again by pulling on the other
chain fall.
Yale overload protection device (optional)
The overload protection device is set to approx. 125% (±15%) of the nominal load. Its
adjustment must only be carried out by a competent person or an authorised service partner.
When the load limit is exceeded, the overload protection device is activated and prevents
lifting of the load by the hand chain wheel slipping.

equipment must be inspected:
• in accordance with the risk assessment of the operating company
• prior to initial operation

dictate shorter inspection intervals.
