All new products are not easy to operate at the initial stage of use, but operators can master proficient operation skills after a period of running-in, and electric hoist gantry cranes are no exception. Generally, according to the initial operating characteristics of cranes, they have a running-in period of about 60 hours. Correct operation and use during the running-in period is crucial for reducing the failure rate and extending the service life of cranes in normal operation.
All crane operators have received professional training and are proficient in crane operation. The running-in period is an essential stage for operators to get familiar with the equipment. Before operating the machine, operators must carefully read the operation and maintenance manual and conduct operation and maintenance work in strict accordance with the manual requirements.
Secondly, ensure that the working load of the crane does not exceed 80% of its rated load. Maintain moderate operation and avoid overheating caused by long-term continuous working of the equipment.
In addition, regularly check the level and quality of lubricating oil, hydraulic oil, coolant, brake fluid and fuel oil, and inspect the tightness of all sealing parts. Keep the equipment clean, and timely adjust and fasten loose components.
Tips from electric hoist gantry crane manufacturer: Attach great importance to the operation during the running-in period, reduce working load and strengthen lubrication, so as to reduce early equipment failures and extend the service life of the crane.
