I have two rachet type chain hoists that slip when you are letting them down.They don't do it all of the time but it could be very dangerous so I don't use them.I was wondering if there is a way to adjust or tighten something in the handle part where it is connected to the hoist or inside of the hoist to stop the slipping.I hate to throw away something if I can fix it.

Sounds like a bunch of crud or rust in the ratchet pawls. Thake them apart and clean them up and lube the ratchets and pawls. Above all carefully inspect the ratchets and pawls for wear or breakage, Aby wear or breakage, scrap them.

Be sure the chain is the correct size and is not stretched or otherwise deformed. Make sure the ratchets or latches, travel as far as they should, move freely, are not worn and that the teeth on the rotor are in good shape. If the latches have springs on them, make sure they are doing what they were intended to do and BE CAREFULL.

these things can be rebuilt/repaired...usually pretty reasonably.

Find a commercial tool supply house in your area and tell them what you got. They can fix you up or direct you to someone who can. Sometimes depending on how they are misused (by the hired help) it's cheaper to replace than repair... YMMV
