Purpose & User
The Dayton 29XL88 air chain hoist lifts up to 2000 lb across a 10 ft hook travel. It is built for workshops and maintenance bays that already run a compressed-air supply and need a compact, hook-mounted lifter for engines, transmissions or heavy fixtures.
Accessories & Controls
The unit ships with a pendant control for direct, hands-on operation. No trolley or beam hardware is included, so the hoist stays fixed to a suitable overhead anchor point. The cast-aluminium body keeps weight down while resisting shop-floor abuse.
Installation & Common Issues
Mounting requires a secure hook attachment and a 3/8 in NPT female air line capable of 90 psi and 48 scfm. The 18 in headroom must clear the load path. Undersized airline or pressure drops below spec are the usual causes of slow or stalled lifts.

Questions about this item
How often should the chain and hook be inspected on a 2000 lb hoist with 10 ft lift?
Inspect the chain and hook before each shift and perform a thorough inspection monthly; replace any links showing wear, stretch beyond 1.5 % or deformation.
What limits continuous operation on a hoist rated at 48 scfm and 90 psi?
The air compressor must sustain 48 scfm at 90 psi; if supply drops, the motor stalls and the brake engages, stopping the lift.
How loud and hot does the cast aluminium body get during all‑day use at 23 fpm?
The cast aluminium body runs warm but stays touch‑safe; noise is typical for air motors at 90 psi and is reduced by the pendant‑controlled exhaust muffler.
