The OZ industrial manual lever hoist, referred to by the manufacturer as the Industrial Lever Hoist, is a hand-operated chain lever hoist used for lifting, pulling, and positioning loads where powered lifting equipment is not practical. Often called a hand lever hoist or ratchet lever hoist, it is commonly used by maintenance departments, rigging crews, workshops, and warehouse service teams to move equipment safely with controlled force. The ratcheting handle tensions the load chain, allowing the operator to raise, lower, or hold a load securely during overhead lifting or pulling operations. Within our lever hoists range, this model is selected for dependable everyday lifting and rigging work.
Applications & Typical Use
Manual lever hoists are widely used during equipment installation, machinery maintenance, steel alignment, and repair work. They are particularly useful in confined areas, field service environments, and locations where an electric hoist or overhead crane is unavailable. Because the hoist can both lift and pull, it is frequently used to align components, tension assemblies, and position machinery. Capacity should always be selected based on the maximum possible load rather than an estimated weight, and lift height should match the available working clearance.
Safe Use & Inspection
The hoist must be attached to a rated and secure anchorage point capable of supporting the load. Operators should visually inspect hooks, safety latches, and the load chain before use and ensure the working load limit is never exceeded. As with all rigging equipment, periodic inspection should be carried out as part of workplace lifting procedures. Users unfamiliar with operation should complete lever hoist safety training before using the equipment.
Design & Operating Advantages
The all-steel construction provides durability under repeated use, while the Weston-style braking system allows controlled lifting and secure load holding. Enclosed gearing protects internal components in maintenance environments, and forged hooks with safety latches improve load security. In practical use, a manual lever hoist provides technicians with precise control when aligning, positioning, or tensioning equipment without requiring powered lifting equipment.

faqs about oz industrial manual lever hoist
What is a manual lever hoist used for?
What is a manual lever hoist used for?
A manual lever hoist is used to lift, pull, or position loads using a hand-operated ratcheting handle. It is commonly used during equipment installation, maintenance work, machinery alignment, and rigging tasks where precise control is needed and powered lifting equipment is not available.
What is the difference between a lever hoist and a chain hoist?
What is the difference between a lever hoist and a chain hoist?
A lever hoist is operated from the side using a ratchet handle and can be used for both lifting and pulling. A hand chain hoist is operated vertically by pulling a hand chain and is mainly intended for straight overhead lifting. Lever hoists are better for positioning and tensioning loads.
Can a lever hoist be used for pulling as well as lifting?
Can a lever hoist be used for pulling as well as lifting?
Yes. A manual lever hoist can both lift vertically and pull horizontally, provided it is correctly aligned and used within its rated capacity. This makes it useful for aligning equipment, tensioning assemblies, and positioning components during installation.
How do I choose the correct capacity?
How do I choose the correct capacity?
Always choose a hoist rated higher than the maximum possible load. Do not size the hoist based only on estimated weight. Selecting a higher working load limit provides a safety margin and helps prevent overloading.
Where should a lever hoist be attached?
Where should a lever hoist be attached?
The hoist must be connected to a secure, rated anchorage point capable of supporting the load. This may include a structural beam, certified lifting eye, or other approved lifting support designed to handle the working load.
Does a lever hoist require inspection before use?
Does a lever hoist require inspection before use?
Yes. Before each use, the operator should check the hooks, safety latches, chain, and braking mechanism for damage or wear. Regular inspections should also be carried out periodically in accordance with workplace lifting equipment procedures.
