Lug-All Come Along Ratchet Winch Hoists have always been crafted with high standards in mind. The use of premium materials and precise construction ensures that Lug-All winch hoists provide reliable performance for many years. To maintain the longevity of your Lug-All equipment, regular inspections and maintenance are crucial.

Inspection Checklist

Before using a Lug-All winch hoist, it’s essential to conduct a thorough pre-operational inspection. If any part of the inspection checklist raises concerns, the hoist must be taken out of service immediately. Damaged hoists can either be sent to Lug-All for professional repair or fixed with parts purchased directly from the Lug-All online store.

1. Inspect the hooks for any signs of deformation, cracks, or excessive wear.
2. Ensure the latches operate smoothly without any sticking or resistance.
3. Examine the full length of the web strap for fraying, melting, chemical damage, or any form of abrasive wear, including cuts on the surface or edges.
4. Check the ratchet teeth for any gouges, burrs, or other forms of physical damage.
5. Look over the entire winch hoist for any bent or broken metal components.
6. Inspect the pawls for bends, cracks, or other visible damage.
7. Verify the integrity of the springs to ensure they function correctly.
8. Operate the u-frame and confirm that the u-frame pawl contacts the main frame pawl spring accurately without missing the spring.
9. Test all operational functions, including lowering, lifting, and free release mechanisms.
10. For web strap hoists, check the handle for a broken stress link. For wire rope hoists, inspect the handle for any bending or deformation. A broken stress link or deformed handle indicates that the hoist may have been subjected to an overload.

Operation Inspection

The Lug-All winch hoist offers three distinct operation modes: tensioning, backing off, and free release. To test the tensioning function, rotate the reverse lever toward the drum to engage the u-frame pawl against the ratchet teeth. Turn the handle as needed to apply the appropriate level of tension.

To test the backing off function, rotate the reverse lever away from the drum to disengage the u-frame pawl from the ratchet teeth. Move the handle until the u-frame pawl locks into the main frame pawl spring. Further pressure in the same direction will release the main frame pawl. Ease off the handle, and the load will descend one ratchet tooth at a time.

To test the free release function, rotate the reverse lever away from the drum to disengage the u-frame pawl from the ratchet teeth. Press the trigger to hold the main frame pawl away from the ratchet teeth.

Maintenance

It's common for some corrosion to appear on Lug-All winch hoists used outdoors. Shafts and other movable parts can be lubricated using light oils or penetrants like WD-40. Proper lubrication ensures smoother operation. However, avoid spraying lubricants on the web strap of Lug-All web strap hoists as this could compromise its dielectric properties and damage the strap material.

Regularly inspecting your Lug-All come along ratchet winch hoist helps prevent unexpected maintenance issues down the line. While Lug-All winch hoists are built to stringent quality standards, neglecting maintenance can render even the best products unusable. In severe cases, lack of maintenance might lead to complete equipment failure—possibly during a critical task. Although Lug-All incorporates numerous safety features to keep users safe, unforeseen equipment malfunctions can jeopardize personal safety. Staying on top of inspections and maintenance not only protects your equipment but also safeguards you.
