32
WIRE ROPE INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
t Lifting cables should be replaced every three - five years or when visible signs of damage are apparent. DO NOT
USE LIFT WITH DEFECTIVE / WORN CABLES.
t Lifting cables should be maintained in a well-lubricated condition at all times. Wire rope is only fully protected when
each wire strand is lubricated both internal and external. Excessive wear will shorten the life of the wire rope. The factory
suggested wire rope lubricant that penetrates to the core of the rope and provides long-term lubrication between each
individual strand is 90-WT gear oil or ALMASOL® Wire Rope Lubricant. In order to make sure that the inner layers of the rope
remain well lubricated, lubrication should be carried out at intervals not exceeding three months during operation.
t All sheaves and guide rollers in contact with the moving rope should be given regular visual checks for surface wear
and lubricated to make sure that they run freely. This operation should be carried out at appropriate intervals generally not
exceeding three months during operation. For all sheave axles, the factory recommends standard wheel bearing grease.
For all sheaves and/or guide rollers, the factory recommends 90-WT gear oil or similar heavy lubricant applied by any
method including pump / spray dispensing, brush, hand and/or swabbing.
.
HOW OFTEN TO INSPECT
t Lifting cables should be visually inspected at least once each day when in use, as suggested by American Petroleum
Institute (API) RP54 guidelines.
t Any lifting cables that have met the criteria for removal must be immediately replaced.
t Flex the rope to expose any broken wires hidden in the valleys between the strands.
t Visually check for any broken wires. One way to check for crown breaks is to run a cloth along the rope to check for
possible snags.
t With an awl, probe between wires and strands and lift any wires that appear loose. Evidence of internal broken wires
may require a more extensive rope examination.

Safe Lift Operation
Automotive and truck lifts are critical to the operation and profitability of your business. The safe use of this and other
lifts in your shop is critical in preventing employee injuries and damage to customer’s vehicles. By operating lifts safely
you can insure that your shop is profitable, productive and safe.
Safe operation of automotive lifts requires that only trained employees should be allowed to use the lift.
t Proper use, understanding and visual identification of safety lock devices and their operation.
t Proper housekeeping procedures (lift area should be free of grease, oil, tools, equipment, trash, and other debris)
t A daily inspection of the lift should be completed prior to its use. Safety devices, operating controls, lift arms and
other critical parts should be inspected prior to using the lift.
t All maintenance and repairs of the lift should be completed by following the manufacturer’s requirements. Lift repair
parts should meet or exceed OEM specifications. Repairs should only be completed by a qualified lift technician.
t The vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations should be used for spotting and lifting the vehicle.
t It is important that you know the load limit. Be careful that you do not overload the lift . If you are unsure what the
load limit is, check the data plate found on one of the lift columns or contact the manufacturer.
t The center of gravity should be followed closely to what the manufacturer recommends.
t Always make sure you have proper overhead clearance. Additionally, check that attachments, (vehicle signs,
campers, antennas, etc.) are not in the way.
t Be sure that prior to the vehicle being raised, the doors, trunk, and hood are closed securely
