Description
Support massive grounds care equipment and industrial landscape loaders during frame overhaul cycles. The Atlas Lifting and Rigging ACH hoist yields 22000 lbs of heavy-duty vertical lifting power for industrial tractor frames and commercial turf fleet attachments. This massive manual chain hoist demands substantial rigging anchor points, restricting use to heavy-duty certified shop crane gantries.
Heavy welded steel frame plates house precision double-reduction gearing to multiply technician hand chain pull into immense vertical power. Four strands of Grade 80 alloy steel load chain divide the 10-ton tension, reducing single-strand wear during engine extractions. Dual Weston mechanical pawl brake plates arrest loads instantly when hand chain motion stops. Drop-forged alloy steel hooks rotate on thrust bearings, preventing chain twist and structural hook bind under maximum load conditions.
Key Features Atlas ACH-100-10
Commercial grounds equipment rebuild shops install this 10-ton hoist to lift heavy municipal gang mowers and loader backbones. The manual chain operation provides absolute positioning control during delicate equipment repowering projects.
- A 22000 lb capacity lifts heavy commercial turf tractors and municipal grounds maintenance machinery.
- The 10-foot vertical lift height provides crane clearance for low-headroom overhaul shops.
- Quad-strand Grade 80 alloy steel chain divides lifting tension to maximize wear life.
- Double-reduction gear train delivers high mechanical advantage during heavy frame elevations.
- Dual-pawl Weston brake mechanism locks suspended loads firmly without creep or fade.
- Heavy-duty drop-forged latch hooks resist bending failure under sudden shock load transfers.
- Heavy gauge steel housing shields internal mechanical components from metal dust and shop grime.
Proof Bench Dyno Telemetry
Dyno pull testing subjects this 10-ton hoist to 33000 lbs of proof tension, showing zero yield in the ductile frame or hook forgings. Operator hand chain pull registers 94 lbs of physical force under maximum 22000 lb working loads, demanding steady two-handed pulling cadence. Weston brake thermal rise measures 48 °F over baseline temperatures during continuous cycle testing, holding full payload without slip. Acoustic noise levels maintain 72 dBA during fast lowering cycles, confirming clean tooth engagement across the double-reduction spur gearset.
Gantry Rigging Operational Procedures
Riggers check that all four chain falls hang straight without flips before engaging heavy equipment lifting eyes. Never use this 10-ton manual hoist to drag loads horizontally across concrete service bay floors. Do not exceed the 22000 lb limit when lifting ballasted municipal tractors with fluid-filled tires.
- Inspect quad-strand chain links for inter-link friction wear and elongation every 30 days.
- Coat load chain links with clean light mineral oil to minimize sprocket pocket wear.
- Check lower hook thrust bearing rotation for free pivoting movement during monthly inspections.
Commercial Warranty Delivery Manifest
Atlas backs this heavy hoist with a 1-Year commercial warranty covering structural components and drive gearing. The heavy pallet crate includes the 10-ton manual hoist powerhead, quad-strand Grade 80 chain assembly, hand chain loop, hook blocks, proof test certificate, and operating safety manual.
