FAQ

Are Kito hoists CSA approved?
Yes. Kito's Canadian electric chain hoists, including the ER2, EQ and SER series, are CSA approved and built to ASME standards. The ER2 is available in 220, 440 and 575 V, 60 Hz for Canadian plants.
What is the difference between three-phase and single-phase electric hoists?
Three-phase hoists such as the Kito ER2 and EQ run on plant power and handle heavier, continuous industrial duty, with capacities up to 20 metric tonnes. Single-phase hoists such as the SER, SEQ and ED run where only single-phase power is available, such as shops and service bays, with capacities up to 3 metric tonnes.
Should I use a hand chain hoist or a lever hoist?
A hand chain hoist is designed for vertical lifting from an overhead support point, with Kito's M3CB rated up to 50 metric tonnes. A lever hoist pulls, tensions and lifts in almost any orientation, which makes it a favourite for millwright alignment, rigging and load securing, with the Kito LB rated up to 9 metric tonnes.
Will Kito manual hoists work in extreme cold?
Yes. The Kito M3CB hand chain hoist is built with heavy-grade components and a high-impact steel housing designed to handle -40 °C conditions and hostile northern winters.
Do you have hoists for hazardous or explosive environments?
Yes. Kito offers RNER2D (Class I Division 2) and RNER2B (Class I Division 1 / Class II Division 1) hazardous-location electric hoists, ATEX-certified spark-resistant TCE air hoists, and spark-resistant VLLB lever hoists, VLCB manual chain hoists and HD3C trolleys. Always have a qualified person confirm the hazardous-location classification for your site.
When should I choose an air hoist over an electric hoist?
Choose a Kito air hoist when you need an unlimited duty cycle, very fine feathering control for precise load placement, or when electric power is restricted or hazardous. Air hoists are common in oil and gas, mining and mineral processing, and in food and pharmaceutical plants (TCW wash-down and TCL lubrication-free models).
Do you offer food-grade hoists and trolleys?
Yes. The Kito FER2 food-grade electric chain hoist, FTSP food-grade trolley and TCW wash-down air hoist use food-safe lubricants and finishes suited to food, beverage and pharmaceutical processing.
Can you supply a complete hoist, trolley and crane package?
Yes. Gordon Russell can pair any Kito hoist with a push, geared or motorized trolley, a UBC beam clamp for a temporary anchor point, or HPC convertible end trucks to build a light-duty crane.
Do you service and inspect Kito hoists?
As an authorized Kito distributor, Gordon Russell provides parts, service and repair support across Western Canada.
Do you rent Kito hoists?
