We recommend using Chain & Lifting Gear Lubricant from Don-Bur for lifting deck ropes. This product is specifically formulated to protect and extend the life of chains and lifting equipment, including wire ropes. To apply, ensure the rope is clean and free from grease and debris. Evenly coat the entire rope, making sure the lubricant penetrates into the core — this may involve operating the deck to reach concealed sections. While you're applying it, it's also a good time to check the rope for any signs of wear or damage. Chain & Lifting Gear Lubricant is available from our parts department. For guidance on how often to lubricate, please refer to our lifting deck maintenance FAQ.
