A bit of noise and crosshead movement in an American Hoist Company 'Jumbo' deck hoist. Hoist is on the ww2 Liberty Ship Jeremiah O'Brien in San Francisco, California.

Bonjour Wesley, I guess this noise is not a good sign and means that something will have to be repaired. On this huge machine, not obvious... Perhaps will we be able to see this repair rhanks to one of your videos 😉 Amicalement, Raphaël

Bonjour Raphaël, Indeed the squeak is indicative of needing attention inside the cylinder. The obvious slop in the crosshead slippers can be remedied with some shims. Albeit not the easiest of jobs in this instance. I hope you are doing well and your winter is tolerable. We've been experiencing quite some weather out here in "sunny California"
