3 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 General technical description

The HMD G-type davit is the best alternative for handling any kind of daughter craft in
extreme weather conditions. It is a complete, hydraulically operated, self-contained unit
designed for long-time operation and efficient handling and stowing of a rescue boat in a
tough and corrosive marine/offshore environment. It’s designed with ample structural
over-capacity for heavy operation and for safe stowing on the deck of any vessel.
Because G-Davits are specifically designed for handling heavier boats (not limited to
rescue) in severe conditions (up to sea state 6), they make use of a few unique
mechanisms. First, they are generally not SOLAS compliant and so; tend not to have
accumulator back-up systems like most other davit types. Instead, they usually
incorporate a diesel HPU.
The davit consists of a foundation with hinged outboard cradle arms, electric motor, and diesel
engine back-up HPU (optional).
A finger-like jib is hinged to the foundation and connected via two hydraulic cylinders. The winch,
shock absorber and pendulum-damped docking head are mounted on the jib which also contains
the hydraulic oil tank.
As with other davits, available options include constant tension (wave-riding recovery mode), active
heave compensated hook connection system, shock absorber, power sheave (for larger boats),
remote control systems, and separate towing boom (and jigger winch).
The davit is operated from a separate operating console on the vessel's deck, close to its side and
in front of the daughter craft. The operating console is connected to the davit via hydraulic piping or
multi hose which may be provided with the davit.
The davit is delivered as a complete unit, fully tested, adjusted and ready for installation onboard
the vessel by welding or bolting to the substructure. El. power is connected to the motor located on
the davit's jib.
3.2 Normal operation

Under normal operation, an electric motor runs the hydraulic pump supplying hydraulic power to
the cylinder which drives the jib between inner and outer positions, and to the winch which lowers
and hoists the boat.
3.2.1 Constant tension (CT) system

Constant tension is an optional operating mode for rescue handling equipment. It is designed to
provide a smooth wave-riding function during a boat's recovery during heavier sea states where
the boat rises and falls during hook-up. Without the function, when the boat is hooked on near the
crest of a wave, it hangs on the lift wire as the wave falls away. If the next wave is higher, the boat
is lifted causing slack in the wire and then dropped suddenly as the wave falls away again.
Constant tension mode provides just enough tension in the lift wire after hook-up to keep the wire
taut while allowing the boat to ride the waves. This provides a sort of standby mode during boat
recovery which avoids the associated danger and discomfort introduced by heavy sea states.
3.3 Dead-ship operation (option)

Emergency or dead-ship operation is necessary in the event that the parent vessel loses power, or
cannot provide power to the davit.
SOLAS: For G-davits under SOLAS regulations, during dead ship operation, an accumulator
system on the davit is activated via a handle on the emergency operation panel (also on the davit).
It supplies the hydraulic system with sufficient power to lower the boat one time. When the davit is
in launch position, the boat is launched by holding and pulling the emergency lowering pull-line (a 3
mm stainless steel wire) from within the boat. A hand pump is provided for dead-ship boat
recovery.
Non-SOLAS: For most G-davits, during dead ship operation, a diesel power pack (option) provides
power for all the davit's functions, though with reduced speed.
3.3.1 Diesel HPU back-up (option)

Most G-Davits utilize diesel back-up power. A small number, however, are SOLAS compliant and
thus, make use of an accumulator system. The diesel is operated from the davit operating console.
The diesel HPU back-up system consists of a standard marine diesel engine with an integrated
fuel tank and an auxiliary hydraulic pump feeding the hydraulic system. This back-up system can
operate until the fuel is depleted and makes it
possible to operate all the davit functions as
normal though at reduced speed. Both jib
operating speed and winch speed are reduced
because the diesel engine uses a smaller
pump and thus delivers less flow.
In the case where two davits share one diesel
HPU, four hydraulic valves must be operated to
select which davit to be run.
Davits equipped with a diesel engine do not
have an emergency lowering line (pull line) or
hand pump because they are not SOLAS
compliant.
Note: While older G-Davits have the diesel
power unit integrated in the davit's base, the newer models utilize a diesel unit completely separate
from the davit.
3.4 Arctic package (option)

The davits are prepared for operation under arctic conditions, comprising a 2x2.4 kW thermo-
controlled oil heater in the hydraulic oil tank, still stand heating for electromotor, special stainless
steel ice scrapers on cylinders, hinged stainless steel cover for control panel and heating element
in electrical cabinets.
3.5 Hook stop

The winch has a mechanical hook stop up system. This ensures by-pass of hydraulic oil flow when
hook reaches its upper position. Excessive oil pressure will open a relief valve and oil is fed back
into the hydraulic oil tank.
3.6 Hydraulic dampened docking system

The system reduces the pendulum motion during the jib out/in phase under
significant pitch/roll movements of the parent vessel. It’s a part of the outer jib
section and is directly connected to the boat to reduce swing motions during
the jib in/out phase. The system consists of a telescopic docking gripper
device, designed to fit into the boat mounted docking/hook system. The
docking gripper is able to rotate in both X and Y-plane. Each motion direction
is dampened by double acting hydraulic cylinders.
3.7 Wire shock absorbing system

The shock absorber is an optional feature designed to
protect the davit against higher dynamic forces over the
safe working load. It consists of an extra wire-sheave which
directs a loop of lift-wire around a hydraulic cylinder
attached to the davit jib. The cylinder
is connected to a pre charged nitrogen accumulator (shown
on the photo below) such that extreme shock in the wire is
absorbed by the cylinder.
P0 nitrogen pressure for this accumulator is given in the flow
diagram. Oil pressure is to be 10% extra to lift the
accumulator piston free from the end position. The shock
absorber is not connected to the main hydraulic system in
any way.
The shock absorbing arrangement provides safer handling
and comfort for boat passengers.
3.8 Power Sheave

A power sheave is used for
heavier boats (davit capacity
beyond 6.7 ton) where heavier
wire is used. Paying out an
empty hook with such wire may
cause loose tangling on the
winch drum or uncontrolled
feeding of the wire anywhere but
through the sheave at the davit
tip. To address this, a weight is
usually included on the wire near
the hook. This, however, poses a
danger to personnel in the boat,
particularly under heavy sea
states. The Power Sheave
provides an alternative method of
providing a flawless wire pay out
progress.
The Power Sheave connects to the main hydraulic system and incorporates a hydraulic motor and
a rubber surfaced wheel pressing via spring tension and feeding the wire over the sheave.
3.9 Boat cradle

G-Davits utilize a pair of mechanically tipped boat
cradle arms to offer the boat more firm support
when stowed. The tipping boat cradle arms are
pressed up against the boat when the davit is in the
stowed position and tip down (under their own
weight) when the jib begins to swing out, thus
freeing the boat for launch.
3.10 Towing boom (option)

The davit system may be delivered with a towing boom system to position the boat during hoisting
and lowering along the vessel's side. As towing booms are simple devices and greatly enhance
safety, they are very common components in davit deliveries and are normally delivered with the
painter (towing) line. The painter line will also position the boat correctly during hook connection.
There are three types of towing boom which may be used with any davit type - Luffing, Slewing
and Telescopic. Any of these
may incorporate a jigger winch
for paying out extra line. Towing
booms are hydraulically
operated and controlled from
the davit operating console.
A towing boom and painter line

should always be used to
stabilize a boat when it is being
launched or recovered while the
parent vessel is underway. If
launching or recovering the
boat is attempted without a
towing line when the parent
vessel is underway, the boat
can become extremely unstable
and tip or dive.
3.10.1 Towing boom end

Several different boom end designs have been
used where a rope exits the end of a towing boom.
The earliest models included only a trumpet bell to
guide the rope, however painter lines wore quickly
even with these. Later models incorporate a rope
guide with a wheel and trumpet bell facing aft
toward the boat. Still the painter line experienced
significant wear. Current designs incorporate a rope
guide with wheel and aft-facing trumpet - all
mounted on a bearing so the guide and rope angle
can vary.
3.10.2 Painter line

The painter line is an important component. A towing boom and painter line should always be used
to stabilize a boat when it’s being launched or recovered while the parent vessel is underway. If
launching or recovering is attempted without a towing line when the parent vessel is underway, the
boat can become extremely unstable and tip or dive. For this reason, its entire length should be
inspected periodically for wear and tear. This is especially important where the line runs across the
pulleys and exits the boom end.
To protect the boom from excessive stress, a weak or breakable link is included near the end of
the painter line. The illustration below shows a typical painter-line termination.
Though small boats may actually be towed with the boom (boats smaller than 3 tons, in calm
water), towing booms are NOT designed to tow boats - especially medium or large boats, or any
boat during heavy seas
where dynamic forces can vary greatly.
Boats should remain under power while connected to the towing boom, especially water-jet
powered boats
so they retain steering control.
3.10.3 Jigger winch

A jigger winch consists of a hydraulic cylinder and two sets of pulleys holding several extra loops of
painter line either inside the towing boom itself or along its side.
A jigger winch provides up to 6 m extra painter line in
cases where the painter line angle varies greatly during
boat lowering and recovery. This may be the case when
the towing boom is close to the davit or when the davit is
high above the water. In such cases, the jigger winch
should be used to pay out extra painter line so that its
angle never exceeds 30° to the horizontal.
This is done at the davit operating console via a dedicated

lever for the jigger winch which operates the jigger
cylinder. Via movement of the jigger cylinder and one of
the pulley sets, extra line is paid out by the davit operator
when the lowered boat gets further away from the towing
boom or when the boat hooks on to the painter and must
move back under the davit during recovery.
In the case of a jigger winch, a towing boom back-stay

may be incorporated using the painter. In this case the
ship-end of the line simply continues around the jigger
pulleys and out to the boom end again. By this the difficulty of adjusting both back-stay and painter
line lengths is avoided. In addition, the support offered to the towing boom by the back-stay is
always proportional to the tension in the painter from the boat. Here a towing boom end
incorporating twin line guides is used

4.5 Installation of davit

A Check of deck structure
Make sure that the deck structure is designed to withstand load forces from davit at rest
and in operation. Relevant load forces are indicated in the GA-drawing.
B Clear space for davit, control console, tow boom, el.starter and diesel HPU
Locate deck area for installation and check that required space is available. Mark the foot
prints at the deck (can be found in the general arrangement drawings). It is recommended
to locate the control console in front of davit, as close as possible to the ship side.
Towing boom (option) according to drawing.
Locate room for el. starter (option) and diesel HPU.
Remote starter (option) to be located as close to davit operator as possible.
C Lifting and installation

Utilize the lifting pad eyes as this will keep davit in an upright position. Mount davit on
prefabricated support in deck; drilled for bolt connection.
The davit is equipped with two moveable transport hinges and several lifting pad eyes for
handling the davit during installation. With help from the hinges the boom can be placed
in a suitable angle for transport. Use the lifting pad eyes or lifting slings on jib structure
and hoist the boom to exact position. Then bolt the flange before the hinges are removed.
Weight of davit is specified on supply list, and arrange for a crane with sufficient lifting
capacity to be available during installation. Typical procedure:
1) Lift the davit onboard ship

4.6 Filling of hydraulic system oil

After installing the davit onboard, fill the
hydraulic system oil into davit’s tank. Use a
pump and fill oil through the return filter. This
will prevent contamination of the hydraulic
system. A male quick release coupling is
mounted on the pipe to the filter. The filter is
located at top of the tank. A suitable female
quick release coupling is delivered with the
davit. Fill oil until visible at midle of upper
level glass on the tank side.
It is very important to use new, clean oil.
Under no circumstances water, dirt or other
impurities must be allowed to enter the tank.
Impurities and moisture will reduce the
efficiency and shorten the lifetime of the
hydraulic system.
If a delivered multihose is used connecting
the davit to the operating console, no further
flushing of the hydraulic system is required.
However, if other pipes or hoses are used, partly or entirely, they must be cleaned and flushed
before use. After installation of such pipes, system flushing is required. After system flushing,
install enclosed extra filter.
4.7 Check list prior to first time start-up

Check following elements:
№ Description Checked
1 Deck designed to withstand load forces from davit
2 Fundament bolted properly to deck
3 Hydraulic oil filled in tank
4 All electric coupling safe and carried out by certified electrician
5 Rotation of electric motor clearly marked
6 All hose/pipe couplings properly secured
7 All operating handles for dead ship operation to be in “normal” position
Check that lowering rope is unwrapped and that it is treaded in its sheaves all the way
8 to the end of the davit. Make sure that the lowering rope is equipped with
counterweight (handle)
Check that all wrapping, securing of wire, etc. is removed and that wire has free
9
access all the way from winch through wire sheaves down to the boat
10 Check that all transport-protection Denso tape is removed
4.8 First time start up

As a final check before first time start up, check the rotation of the electric motor. This is done by a
SHORT start of the motor while observing the rotation. If the rotation is wrong, interchange 2
phases and check again.
It is very important to ensure proper rotation direction of the hydraulic

pump before it is used. Any discrepancy between indicated rotation of
the electric motor and pump must be clarified with MacGregor
Norway AS before initiation of new or modified equipment
The hydraulic pump must not be allowed to run in the wrong direction, as this will seriously affect
its life span.
When motor is rotating in correct direction, leave it running for approx. 5 minutes without trying to
operate the davit. Be sure that all air in system is ventilated before any load is applied. Upon
completion of initial test run, check the oil level in the system oil tank and top up if necessary.
4.9 Function test / first time adjustment

There may be air in the hydraulic system when the davit is started for the first time. The following
procedure will help remove air and should be carried out with no load in hook/ring.
Start by gently turning the davit approx. 10 degrees and then return to the resting position. Repeat
3 times before the davit is operated at full travel.
Operate winch carefully. Make sure that wire have free access all the way from the winch through
the wire sheaves. Observe winch drum and make sure that wire is properly laid. Operate winch
carefully. Operate winch (lower and hoist) for a few minutes.
After completing the procedure above, the davit can be operated using a load of approx. 50% of
SWL. We recommend that a test load (not boat) is used.
After operating the davit with suspended test load in all positions, operate the davit to its inner
position and stop the electric motor.
4.10 Control / adjustment of hydraulic pressure

The davit operating pressure has been pre-set to handle SWL at full speed. It might be necessary
to adjust the pressure to perform overload tests. Adjustment and control of pressure is described
below:
A Control of max-pressure
Operate the “jib in” valve handle. Hold the handle with davit in this position and read the
pressure at the manometer, located at the operation panel, marked Pressure.
B Adjusting the pressure

To increase winch capacity, adjust the main relief valve usually located in the technical
compartment.
Adjustment of parameters should be performed by qualified

personnel only
4.11 Security precautions during testing

Please consider the following security precautions during testing:
 During testing there is always a risk of errors or malfunctions. Therefore, perform first time
overload test using test loads and not boat.
 Do not operate load above persons on lower decks, or above equipment that may be
damaged by falling load. We strongly advise to test only above water in a cleared area.
 Use calibrated loads.
 Test to be performed by competent personnel.
Always follow test procedures
5 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 Control handles

G-Davits are equipped with operating levers for all functions included in the delivery. All normal
davit functions can be carried out from the operator console which is located on deck, generally
near the davit.
Typical layout of the operator’s console
5.2 Normal operation

A qualified davit operator controls the davit operations from the control console under normal
conditions. All normal mode davit functions are operated from this location. Workboat personnel
must embark before start-up of davit.
A Start and stop of integrated hydraulic power unit

Operating the start-stop buttons located nearby the operator’s console activates normal start
and stop.
B Operation of the davit system functions

Normal operation is then proceeded with the operation handles for winch up/down, jib in/out.
The jib in/out handle will also activate the tow boom (option) in/out operation! Operation
signs, provided on the control console, illustrate the function/direction of the operation
handles.
Note: The electromotor is rated for duty S6-40%, meaning maximum power output running
time is limited to max. 2.5 minutes. Running of motor for longer periods with maximum power
output may cause over-heating and motor stop.
5.2.1 Constant tension system

During constant tension mode the winch may pull in or pay out at greater speeds, but operates at
low power and cannot lift the boat (only keeps the lift-wire tight). As the wire may pay out at up to 2
m/s in this mode, it must NEVER be activated with free hanging boat. For this reason the mode
can only be activated via a dedicated double-command safety lever on the davit's operating
console.
It is activated during heavy sea states as soon as the boat is hooked on simultaneously with the
winch-up lever action. In so doing, the winch is commanded to lift (at high speed and low lifting
force) though it cannot actually lift the load. The wire is kept tight and lifting may begin immediately
as the mode is turned off near the crest of a larger wave.
When CT is activated, pilot pressure holds the brake released. Oil pressure and flow to the winch
is as for normal hoisting (full speed), but the winch motor's displacement is reduced. This result in
higher speed and lower lifting force since the pressure remains the same. During up movement
(winch pulls in), the oil flow is as for normal lifting. During down movement (winch pays out) the oil
flows over the SWL valve, some returning directly to tank and some through the motor the other
way.
The SWL valve needs to be set correctly with SWL load for the CT mode to operate properly.
A Activation of constant tension (during boat recovery, after hook-on)

Activate the constant tension selector valve to the “ON” position, and operate main control
valve- “Winch UP”- simultaneously.
Warning!
Never activate the constant tension mode with free hanging load. The load may instantly
drop due to a low setting on the tension regulator valve!
B Deactivation of constant tension (during recovery)

Operate the constant tension selector valve to “OFF” position when the boat is on the crest
of a wave during winch “UP” operation. The winch will enter normal mode and lift with full
capacity.
5.2.2 Towing boom operation

The towing boom is controlled from the davit operating console.
A towing boom and painter line should always be used to stabilize the boat during launch and
recovery while the parent vessel is underway. If launching or recovering the boat is attempted
without a towing line when the parent vessel is underway, the boat can become extremely unstable
and tip or dive.
Though small boats can be towed with the boom (boats smaller than 3 tons, in calm waters),
towing booms are NOT designed to tow boats - especially medium or large boats, or any boat
during heavy seas where dynamic forces can vary greatly.
Boats should always remain powered while connected to the towing boom, especially water-jet
powered boats, to retain steering control.
5.2.3 Launching of boat

A) Start/Stop of the hydraulic power unit is operated by remote start/stop box. Start hydraulic
power unit by pressing green button.
B) Operate davit jib to outer position by jib handle, and start boat engine.
C) Lower winch by winch handle.
D) When work boat is water borne, release lifting hook and operate davit jib “in” by jib handle.
E) Engage power on boat and manoeuvre it away.
F) Retract davit jib to inner position.
G) Stop hydraulic power unit by pressing red button.
5.2.4 Recovery of boat

A) When boat is in pick up position, operate jib out to end position. The wire is now reachable
from the boat. Connect hook to the boat mounted hook. This operation demands full attention
from davit- and work boat operator, especially when the sea is rough.
Note: davit operator must ensure that wire doesn’t slacken on the winch drum if winch is
operated without boat connected.
B) When hook is connected, davit operator must set constant tension (Option) to “ON”, and give
full hoisting (on winch up). Wire will now be kept tight until convenient time for pick up.
C) When boat is on the crest of a wave, de-select constant tension. The boat will now be hoisted
with full power.
D) Operate jib in and dock boat in cradle on davit. Operate winch down to transfer boat weight to
davit cradle. Davit operator must ensure that wire doesn’t get slack on the winch.
Note: Davit operator must ensure that wire doesn’t slacken on the winch drum when winch is
operated without work boat connected.
5.3 Dead ship operation (option)

Use the same procedure as described above. Instead of starting HPU with green knob, use key in
the ignition switch to start the diesel powered HPU.
Starting the engine:

 Turn the key in the operator’s panel clockwise until the engine starts. Do not run the starter
motor for more than 15 seconds at a time. Always wait a few moments for the battery to regain
after each start attempt.
 With the diesel HPU running, all davit manoeuvres are operative, but with reduced speed.
Stopping the engine:

Turn the key in the operator’s panel anti clockwise until the engine stops.
5.4 Typical recovery procedure

NOTE 1:
The davit operator has to reduce the hoisting speed before the boat enters
the docking head, because it’s necessary to minimize rotation in
daughter craft before entering. Use the towing boom and
tighten up with “tow winch- in” to minimise the
rotation.
NOTE 2:
Do not hoist the boat too far into the docking head since it will then lose its “damp down function”.
The operator must control this operation carefully. The docking head must be given the possibility
to “damp down” any torsion and punch.
Typical assembly of G-davit docking head:

recommended
550
min
650
max
850
5.5 Precautions during operation

Even though the davit has been designed, built and tested to ensure maximum security, the
operator’s attention and skill is crucial for a safe operation.
Personnel intended for operation need training in order to maintain this safety level.
The davit and operating console is equipped with signs and instructions showing how to operate
the davit.
Upon request, MacGregor will offer training for personnel.
6 MAINTENANCE
During the warranty period, all maintenance described in this user

manual must be carried out and documented. Either in the enclosed
maintenance log or in the vessel’s maintenance log. Lack of
documented maintenance violates and forfeits the warranty
6.1 Routine maintenance

MacGregor Norway AS has developed a periodic maintenance program for davits in accordance
with the maintenance programs developed by the suppliers for each of the davit's components.
The program also complies with SOLAS (2001) regulations Chapter III part B, reg. 20.
Adhering to this program will ensure long-time, trouble-free operation and significantly reduce
unexpected problems. During the warranty period, maintenance performed on the equipment is to
be documented, either in the maintenance log provided by MacGregor Norway AS, or in the
vessel's own maintenance log.
All maintenance actions specified by the program belong to one of the following categories:
1. Lubrication
2. Inspection
3. Overhaul
4. Replacement
Lubrication: Lub. Includes the following:

 Apply grease to grease nipples
 Apply lubricant or oil to surfaces to minimize friction or corrosion
 Refill or change oil to system or component
Inspection: Insp. Usually involves running the equipment and includes the following:
 Check component for any damage
 Check for correct function of each component
 Check for deviant noise from each component
 Check for any abnormal vibration from rotating components
 Check for correct oil quantity
 Check paint condition on all components
 Check for leakages
 Check for corrosion
 Check lifting wire for wear
Overhaul: Ovhl. Includes the following:

 Remove the component from the unit
 Disassemble the component and inspect each part
 Repair if necessary:
o Bearings
o O-rings, gaskets and seals
o Wear of mechanical parts due to friction
o Hydraulic valves fittings and hoses
o All fasteners (bolts, nuts, washers etc.)
 Clean all components before reassembling the assembly
 Replace or repair components as required, before reassembling the assembly
 Repair any paint damage
Replace: R. REPLACE DOES NOT MEAN REPAIR. Replace includes the following:
 Remove original component and exchange with a new component.
The time intervals listed below are generally based on equipment’s running time.
Equipment or parts of it exposed to weather, chemicals, heat, vibrations or other
impacts apart from normal wear and tear from running will require additional attention.
From time to time and at least once a year, we recommend checking the hydraulic
system oil. Regular checking of oil will help keep the hydraulic system in excellent
condition and reduce the need to change the oil. We recommend that a sample of the
oil is sent to a recognised laboratory (oil company) or to MacGregor who will perform
an analysis and evaluate the quality of the oil. The result of the analysis will decide
whether the oil will have to be replaced or processed.
As a general recommendation all hydraulic hoses should be replaced as follows:

o Outdoor conditions – every 5 years
o Indoor conditions – every 10 years
During the warranty period, either the enclosed maintenance log or the
vessel’s own maintenance log should be used to document maintenance
as this will be called upon should a warranty issue occur
6.2 Periodic maintenance program

MacGregor's 1Y and 5Y inspections should be done in conjunction with the customer's own

Note 2: Inspection instruction for painter line mounted inside towing boom. This is a critical
inspection point and a major safety issue!
To inspect the painter line inside the boom, it must be disconnected from the boat and the
necessary internal length pulled through the towing boom from inside the vessel. If the
condition is good it can be pulled out through the end towing boom again from outside. To
replace the painter line, a thin line must be spliced to it at the boat-end. Pull the painter
line completely out through the boom from inside the vessel. Splice the new painter line
with the thin line and pull through the boom from outside. Ensure to adjust to the same
length.
6.2.1 Steel wire ropes - care and maintenance, inspection and discard
A wire rope on a crane is regarded as an expendable component, requiring replacement when the
results of inspection indicate that its condition has diminished to the point where further use would
be unwise from a safety standpoint.
By following well-established principles, such as those detailed in ISO 4309, along with any
additional specific instructions provided by the manufacturer of the crane or hoist and/or by the
manufacturer of the rope, this point should never be exceeded.
In addition to encompassing the guidance on storage, handling, installation and maintenance, ISO
4309 also provides discard criteria for those running ropes which are subjected to multi-layer
spooling, where both field experience and testing demonstrate that deterioration is significantly
greater at the cross-over zones on the drum, than at any other section of rope in the system.
When correctly applied, the discard criteria given in ISO 4309 are aimed at retaining an adequate
safety margin. Failure to recognize them can be extremely harmful, dangerous and damaging.
On delivery the wire ropes have received offshore lubrication, i.e. all strands and core is heavy
lubricated during core closing, rope lightly lubricated during final closing (to avoid trapping water
between the outer strands and the core). This provides the best premise for a long service life.
Good protection, low internal friction and low friction against wire sheaves.
Compacted strands means high wear resistance, high transversal stiffness and corrosion
resistance.
When to inspect
As a minimum, the wire ropes should be inspected monthly; however, lift wires in continuous
service should be observed during normal operation and visually inspected on a weekly basis. The
purpose of the inspection is to reveal dryness, abrasion, internal/external corrosion, core or strand
protrusion/distortion, wire breaks, wear, kinks etc. before the wire rope becomes unsafe to work
with (see illustrations of unwanted situations below).
NOTE!
Any deterioration, resulting in a suspected loss of original rope strength, should be
carefully examined and a decision made as to whether further use of the rope would
constitute a safety hazard.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Over time, the factory lubrication of the wire ropes will wear off due to the environment and usage.
Periodic maintenance is therefore a necessity.
Manual lubrication with the aid of brushes, rags, gloves, or by other means is costly, risky, and
ineffective. The lubricant forms a film on the surface which water moist can penetrate, thus
becoming trapped inside. Temperature changes cause condensation, and rust then begins to form
from the inside. This will lead to severe corrosion which promotes premature fatigue failures in the
wires and strands.
Recommended maintenance (lubrication)

A high pressure wire lubrication system (e.g. Masto™
lubrication system, see figure below) will maintain a good wire
rope condition by penetrating the entire cross-section which is
necessary to keep friction low and corrosion away.
The frequency of lubrication depends on the environmental
conditions in which the wire rope operates along with usage
and the result of the routine inspections. Generally, if the wire
rope appears dry, lubrication should be initiated. As a
minimum, check every 3rd month if the wire rope shows
signs of lubrication deterioration.
Wire protrusion
External corrosion
Crown wire breaks Strand protrusion
Kinked wire
Local increase in rope diameter due to core distortion
Basket deformation (Birdcage)
6.2.2 Bolts – foundation
General
 Bolt inspection critical areas: Elongation, threads, cracks and tension.

 Initial re-tensioning of all bolts: 1 M after delivery
 Periodic re-tensioning of all bolts: 6 M / 500 H
 Removal and examination of individual bolts: 20 % of bolts
annually*
* 20% of the bolts shall be removed and examined. The first 20% shall be taken in the most loaded
sector of the davit. If any significant defects are found during this examination another 20% are
drawn. If any of this second set is found to be defective then all bolts shall be drawn. If the first
20% are found to be acceptable the bolts can be re-used and the next 20 % can be drawn the
following year.
Manual torque wrench
When refitting, all bolts shall be tensioned according to: MG doc. №: EG WI 51
Knock test
It is recommended to use a ball peen hammer and do a “knock test” on each bolt. In the event that
a nut should have become loose, the lack of tension in the bolt will generate a different sound
during the knock test as compared to the fully tensioned bolts. Loose nuts indicate that bolt must
be re-tensioned according to MG doc. №: EG WI 51.
Note: At the 6th month interval, the knock-test and re-tensioning can be performed every other
time.
EG WI 51 - Bolt selection / tightening forces / bolt tension forces: See the following pages.
6.2.3 Hydraulic hoses – care, maintenance, inspection and discard

Inspection and replacement intervals should be done according to chapter 6.2 Periodic
Maintenance.
Hydraulic hose manufacturers estimate that 80 % of hose failure is attributable to external physical
damage by pulling, kinking, crushing or abrasion of the hose.
Hydraulic hose can and will age over time regardless of service or storage conditions. Hose failure
is not an indication of poor product performance, but rather natural degradation. Over time a
hydraulic hose will show signs of wear as cracking, blisters and bubbles.
The operating conditions that a correctly installed hydraulic hose is subjected to will ultimately
determine its service life. Extremes in temperature, e.g. high daytime operating temperatures and
very cold conditions when the machine is standing at night, accelerate ageing of the hose's rubber
tube and cover. External factors are:
 Environmental conditions
 Ultraviolet light
 Salt water
 Air pollutants
 Extreme temperatures
 Ozone
 Chemicals
 Electricity
 Abrasion damage
Typical examples of abrasion damage:
Abrasion caused by hoses rubbing against

each other or surrounding surfaces is the
most common type of damage. Replace
the hoses and avoid new abrasion and
external damage, ensure all clamps are
kept secure, pay careful attention to
routing whenever a replacement hose is
installed and if necessary, apply
inexpensive polyethylene spiral wrap, zip
tie, sleeves and guards to protect
hydraulic hoses from abrasion (see photo below)
Typical examples of ozone (O3) and bending damages:
Increased ozone, caused by pollution, attacks bonds in certain rubber compounds. Tiny cracks
occur primarily where the hose is stressed; at curves, bends and clamping locations. These cracks
allow airborne contaminants to invade and weaken the hose. External heat damage can result in
hardened and cracked hose covers.
Replace the hoses, check possible external harmful heat sources.
Replacement
MacGregor Norway AS recommends replacing hoses at the following intervals:
1. All externally fitted hydraulic hose should be replaced every 5 years
2. All internally fitted hydraulic hose should be replaced every 10 years
Replacement of Denso tape on hose connections after reinstallation is recommended to avoid

corrosion.
Installation of a replaced hose at less than the minimum recommended bend radius may
significantly reduce the lifetime of the hose (see illustrations below). Particular attention must be
given to prevent sharp bends at the hose connection to the fitting (photos above).
Proper physical installation of the hose assembly requires a correctly installed port connection
ensuring that no twist or torque is transferred to the hose when the fittings are being tightened.
Bending a hydraulic hose in more than one plane will twist its wire reinforcement. A 5 º twist can
reduce the service life of a high-pressure hydraulic hose by as much as 70 % and a 7 º twist can
result in a 90 % reduction in service life.
Ordering of hoses must be done according to the Hose List in this User Manual chapter 7.
6.2.4 Electro motor

Irrespective of the operating hours, the grease should be changed due to aging after
commissioning at least on the occasion of the main inspections (approx. every 3 years). Some of
the motors have a separate nameplate with information about the bearings and the lubrication
intervals. In the case of motors operating under special conditions, such as vertical motor position,
frequent operation at maximum speed nmax, heavy vibration, sudden load changes and frequent
reversing operation, the bearing should be changed at considerably more frequent intervals than at
the operating hour stated above.
Type of grease for standard machines: (Fa. ESSO / UNIREX N3).
Special greases are introduced on the lubricating data plate.
Motor lubrication in general

Modern motor designs usually provide a generous supply of lubricant in tight bearing housings.
Lubrication on
a scheduled basis, in conformance with the manufacturer's recommendations, provides optimum
bearing life.
Thoroughly clean the lubrication equipment and fittings before lubricating. Dirt introduced into the
bearings
during lubrication probably causes more bearing failures than the lack of lubrication.
Too much grease can overpack bearings and cause them to run hot, shortening their life.
Excessive lubricant can find its way inside the motor where it collects dirt and causes insulation
deterioration.
Many small motors are built with permanently lubricated bearings. They cannot and should not be
lubricated.

Lubrication equipment: Electric motors 50 / 60 Hz
General instruction: On Lønne motors the bearings should be re-lubricated every 3 years. This
is due to ageing and irrespective of operation hours. Motors operating
under special conditions, such as frequent operation at maximum speed
(n max), heavy vibration, sudden load changes and frequent reversing
operation, the re-lubrication should be performed at a considerably shorter
interval than at the intervals stated below.
Approved suppliers’ Reference is made to the following LSS procedures:

lubrication specifications:
LSS-01, LSS-02, LSS-04, LSS-11
Comments/notes: Comments / notes :
• Only relubricate bearings when the motor has a speed of at

least n >300 rpm.
• Lubrication intervals are compensated for vertical mounting.
• Smaller electrical motors normally have closed bearings.
Relubrication may not be required.

6.4.1 Lubrication chart with lubrication points

Lubrication is the first of the four maintenance categories and directly extends the lifespan of the
equipment. As a form of preventive maintenance aimed at protecting the equipment, lubrication
must be carried out according to the periodic maintenance program.
The lubrication points drawing (next page) gives a complete overview of “what" and "where" of
lubrication for all parts of a G-Davit. The drawing refers to numbered LSS documents. These
"Lubrication Specification Sheets" are standard documents explaining lubricant details.
6.4.2 Gear box oil

Oil level should be checked
periodically and oil changed every 2
years. Oil is best changed with a warm
gearbox.
All Rescue Handling Equipment winch
gearboxes are mounted horizontally.
To fill:
 Turn winch until oil level screw is

horizontal
 Open oil level screw
 Oil must be up to the oil level
screw; if not, fill oil until it starts
coming out of the level screw hole
 Re-insert oil level screw
6.4.3 Oil filter changes

The hydraulic system is equipped with a high quality return oil filter. The filter ensures that oil
returned to the tank is properly filtered. The oil filter is located at top of the tank, at the right hand
side of the winch.
The filter is to be changed after 6 months, or after the optional system flushing.
Filter Change Procedure:
1. Check that the oil filter is unpressurized

2. Remove the front cover of the filter by unscrewing the 4 screws
3. Lift the filter holder including filter element
4. Remove split pin and crown nut at end of filters pole
5. Remove filter element and clean the magnet pin
6. Install new filter element with spring and nut/split pin
7. Install filter element in filter holder
8. Install the cover, pressurize the filter and check for leakage

6.4.4 Checking the hydraulic system oil

From time to time and at least once a year, we recommend checking the hydraulic system oil.
Regular checking of oil will help keep the hydraulic system in excellent condition and reduce the
need to change the oil.
We recommend that a sample of the oil be sent to a recognised laboratory (oil company) or to
MacGregor Norway AS who will perform an analysis and evaluate the quality of the oil.
The result of the analysis will decide whether the oil will have to be replaced or processed.
Oil cleanliness
The hydraulic oil needs to be kept in good condition free from the contamination of solid particles
and water. Maintaining the oil in healthy condition will prevent costly downtime and the
replacements of pumps, valves, cylinders and seals. Hydraulic cleanliness is therefore an
important aspect to be considered when specifying hydraulic systems and components. It is usual
to request that the system is flushed to achieve a specific degree of cleanliness, e.g. NAS 6.
Measuring hydraulic cleanliness is not straight forward; consequently various standards exist on
this subject.
The NAS 1638 cleanliness standard is used widely in the UK North Sea industries. NAS 1638 is
comprised of fluid cleanliness classes, each class defined in terms of maximum allowed particle
counts for designated particle size ranges.
The ISO Cleanliness Code, ISO 4406 references the number of particles greater than 4, 6 and 14
microns in one millilitre of fluid.
Recommendation: Do frequent oil analyses
6.4.5 Quantity of lubricants

 Grease nipples: Lubricate until grease is visible in area (ex. electromotor)
 Hydraulic system oil: Approx. 750 liters
 Winch-gearbox: Approx. 10 liters
6.5 Control / adjustment of hydraulic pressure

The davit's operating pressure has been pre-set to handle SWL at full speed.
It may be necessary to re-adjust the pressure after a period of time. A properly trained person
should carry out this operation!
Adjustment of parameters should be performed by qualified

personnel only
A Control of max-pressure:
Operate the “jib in” valve handle. Hold the handle with the davit in this position and read the
pressure at the manometer (located at the emergency operation panel) marked "Accumulator
Pressure". Correct pressure is specified in the equipment User Manual (usually around 250
bar).
B Adjusting the pressure:

To increase winch capacity, adjust the main relief valve located inside the davit's technical
compartment.
There is a cap nut covering a hexagonal adjusting screw. Remove the cap nut and loosen the
lock nut under the cap nut. Turn the hexagonal adjusting screw clockwise to increase the
pressure, and anticlockwise to decrease the pressure. Fasten the lock nut and replace the cap
nut when completed.
See FAT report in this User Manual for pressure setting.
6.6 Diesel engine (option)

Below is listed the engine manufacturer’s maintenance recommendations. They are important
maintenance tips, which will ensure longer engine life. Inspect other components within the engine
compartment box after engine maintenance. Check condition of the hydraulic pump, cylinders,
hydraulic valves, hoses, fittings and accumulator. Take note of any leakage and correct if
necessary. Check that bolts and nuts are properly tightened. The environmental impact from salt
water demands particular attention to corrosion. Denso-tape is recommended around valves,
fittings or other components susceptible to rust or corrosion damage. The valves and pump is
factory adjusted and should therefore require no further adjustments.
Maintenance instructions for the HPU diesel engine

6.6.1 Using the HPU diesel engine

Start:
Turn the key in the operators console to position 2 until the engine starts. Do not run the starter
motor for more than 15 seconds at a time. After each attempt to start the engine, wait a few
moments or the battery will not deliver full power.
Stop:
Run the engine idle at medium speed for 4-5 minutes. Then stop the motor by operating the
relevant lever to the stop position.
Usage in low temperatures:

A special winter diesel fuel is recommended for ambient temperatures below ÷10 C to prevent
clogging of fuel filter by waxy paraffin components.
6.7 Checking/adjusting shock absorber accumulator pressure

1. No load in hook
2. Connect manometer to measure point
3. Connect hydraulic pressure unit
(HPU) to quick connection coupling
4. Drain all oil, and read 0 bar on
manometer
5. Remove cap/protection on accumulator
6. Then plug in standard MacGregor
accumulator manometer fill/check set
