What should I do if the electric chain hoist is exposed to rain?

Electric chain hoist is a universal lifting equipment for indoor and outdoor use. When used outdoors, if it gets wet by rain, it will increase the possibility of corrosion of the electric chain hoist. If it is not handled in time, it will also cause the lifting chain and parts to rust. After getting wet, the use of electric chain hoists is prohibited. So, what should we do to use it normally?

The method is to wipe or dry it to remove the water on the surface and inside of the gourd. It is recommended to keep in the sun for a longer time, so that the parts inside can also be dried. If the parts inside are not completely dried, you can also disassemble the cover of the electric chain hoist, place it in the sun for exposure, and wait for it to dry before using it. Finally, apply anti-rust grease or lubricating oil to the parts that are prone to corrosion.

In the rainy season, the sun may not be as good as expected. At this time, it needs to be ventilated and dried for a long time before use.

We must set up wind and rainproof equipment for the electric hoist used outdoors. When not in use, the electric hoist must be moved into a rain cover to prevent the electric hoist from getting wet.

After drying, the electric chain hoist should be tested and run to confirm its working status. However, in future use, it is still necessary to reduce the number of times the electric hoist is exposed to rain.
