Care, Maintenance and Storage

4.1

Cleaning Instructions

Strictly adhere to the cleaning instructions in this section to prevent adverse effects on the materials used in the winch.
Clean the winch periodically with a clean damp (not wet) cloth to remove dirt or contamination which may cause corro-
sion, hamper operation, or diminish readability of the labels. To remove oil or grease, use a mild laundry detergent. Do
not use chemicals, harsh detergents, abrasives, or pressure washers. Never immerse the winch in water or other liquid.
Excessive accumulation of dirt, paint or other foreign matter may prevent proper function of the Winch, and, in severe
cases, weaken the line. Contact MSA with questions concerning product conditions and cleaning. Some environments
may require the winch be disinfected. Contact MSA for aid in determining the proper disinfection procedure for the
specific application.
4.2

Maintenance and Service

Tag damaged equipment or equipment needing maintenance as "UNUSABLE" and remove from service. Repair and
maintenance (other than cleaning) must be performed by an MSA authorized service center. Moving parts of snaphooks
and carabiners may require periodic lubrication with low viscosity penetrating oil. Follow lubricant manufacturer's
instructions. Do not over-lubricate. Wipe excess with a clean, dry cloth.
4.3

Storage

Store the Winch in a cool, dry and clean place out of direct sunlight. Avoid areas where heat, moisture, light, oil, and
chemicals or their vapors or other degrading elements may be present. Never allow the winch to rest for lengthy periods
of time on concrete or ash floors as lime sulfur and ash can cause corrosion. Store the Winch with line fully retracted.
Equipment which is damaged or in need of maintenance should not be stored in the same area as usable equipment.
Heavily soiled, wet, or otherwise contaminated equipment should be properly maintained (e.g. dried and cleaned) prior
to storage. Prior to using equipment which has been stored for long periods of time, a Formal Inspection should be
performed by a competent person.
