Modifications to upgrade, rerate, or otherwise alter this equipment shall be authorized only by the original equipment
manufacturer.
Equipment described herein may be used in the design and manufacture of cranes or monorails. Additional
equipment or devices may be required for the crane and monorail to comply with applicable crane design and
safety standards. The crane designer, crane manufacturer, or user is responsible to furnish these additional items
for compliance. Refer to ANSI/ASME B30.17, “Safety Standard for Top-Running Single Girder Cranes”;
ANSI/ASME B30.2 “Safety Standard for Top-Running Double-Girder Cranes”; and ANSI/ASME B30.11 “Safety
Standard for Underhung Cranes and Monorails”.
If a below-the-hook lifting device or sling is used with a hoist, refer to ANSI/ASME B30.9, “Safety Standard for
Slings” or ANSI/ASME B30.20, “Safety Standard for Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices”.
Hoists and cranes, used to handle hot molten material may require additional equipment or devices. Refer to ANSI
Z241.2, “Safety Requirements for Melting and Pouring of Metals in the Metalcasting Industry”.
Electrical equipment described herein is designed and built in compliance with Harrington's interpretation of
ANSI/NFPA 70, “National Electrical Code”. The system designer, system manufacturer, crane designer, crane
manufacturer, installer, or user is responsible to assure that the installation and associated wiring of these electrical

DANGER
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT IN THE CONTROL BOX, OTHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS,
AND CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THESE COMPONENTS.
Before performing ANY mechanical or electrical maintenance on the equipment, de-energize (disconnect) the main
switch supplying power to the equipment; and lock and tag the main switch in the de-energized position. Refer to
ANSI Z244.1, “Personnel Protection – Lockout/Tagout of Energy Sources”.
Only trained and competent personnel should inspect and repair this equipment.
NOTICE
It is the responsibility of the owner/user to install, inspect, test, maintain, and operate a hoist in accordance with
ANSI/ASME B30.16, “Safety Standard for Overhead Hoists”, OSHA Regulations and ANSI/NFPA 70, National
Electric Code. If the hoist is installed as part of a total lifting system, such as an overhead crane or monorail, it is
also the responsibility of the owner/user to comply with the applicable ANSI/ASME B30 volume that addresses that
type of equipment.
It is the responsibility of the owner/user to have all personnel that will install, inspect, test, maintain, and operate a
hoist read the contents of this manual and applicable portions of ANSI/ASME B30.16, “Safety Standard for
Overhead Hoists”, OSHA Regulations and ANSI/NFPA 70, “National Electric Code”. If the hoist is installed as part
of a total lifting system, such as an overhead crane, the applicable ANSI/ASME B30 volume that addresses that
type of equipment must also be read by all personnel.
If the hoist owner/user requires additional information, or if any information in the manual is not clear, contact
Harrington or the distributor of the hoist. Do not install, inspect, test, maintain, or operate this hoist unless this
information is fully understood.
A regular schedule of inspection of the hoist in accordance with the requirements of ANSI/ASME B30.16 should be

2.0 ER and NER Repair Manual Information
2.1 Purpose
The purpose of this manual is to provide disassembly and assembly instructions for the ER/NER family of hoists
1/8 through 20 Ton. It is also intended to act as a diagnostic guide for troubleshooting various hoist problems
and provide applicable solutions. Instructions provided are generic and intended to apply to all sizes of hoists
covered by this document.
2.2 Difference between the ER and NER
The NER has a friction clutch mechanism that provides over winding protection. The ER has a
mechanical load brake/friction clutch combination and an electronic count/hour meter in the control circuit.
The ER has a vented oil plug where as the NER has a solid vent plug. Finally, a brake label is placed on
the ER.
2.3 Design Concept
The ER/NER hoist is a modular design consisting of four primary parts.
1. Controls Section- This section houses the electrical components such as the transformer, limit
switch(s) and motor contactors.
2. Gear Case - This section consists of the gear system. A mechanical brake with friction clutch (ER
only).
3. Body - This section consists of the chain guide, load chain, load sheave and suspension hooks.
4. Motor and Fan Cover - This section consists of the motor frame with stator, motor shaft with rotor,
pull rotor, rotor, thrust disc, motor brake spring, brake drum, and fan.
This concept allows any ER/NER model to be disassembled and repaired according to specific requirements of
the repair job. For a complete list of parts and an exploded view- see the ER/NER owners manuals.
2.4 Tools Required
•¼” and 3/8” drive metric socket sets
•metric Allen wrenches
•metric Hex bit sockets
•#1, 2, & 3 Philips screwdrivers
