This document provides guidance on hoist speed limits, alarm settings, and safety reminders for hoist operators. It lists maximum allowable hoist speeds based on downhole conditions, with slower speeds required near the surface, at total depth, or in restrictions. It also provides tension alarm and shutdown settings that must be adjusted every 2000 feet based on tool weight and cable type. Key safety reminders include performing a load cell test before rigging up or rigging down, verifying depth matching, stopping at 200 feet from surface for a safety meeting when pulling tools, and adjusting the torque valve every 500 feet.

IN CASE OF ANY UNCERTANTIES/FAULTY READINGS - DO NOT MOVE WINCH BEFORE FIXING ISSUE. Post Cerberus Winchman Sheet. Use Z-WRAP CHART. ONLY 'LOW" SPEED DURING RIG UP -Make sure your mechanical encoder, the hoist panel, and the logging system depths match. BEFORE POOH: -Stop at 200 ft coming out of the hole for safety meeting, regardless of service type. The FS/FE must take over hoisting duties while pulling tools to surface. NO DISTRACTIONS of ANY KIND Torque Valve Procedure (adjust every 500 ft): - Turn the valve anticklockwise until the hoist starts to slow down and then turn the valve about 1/2 turn clockwise - Repeat this every 500 ft (150M)
