Before operating the Rigger, familiarize yourself with the nomenclature
shown in Figures 3 and 4.
1. Free Wheeling: In this condition the chain can be pulled through
the Rigger in either direction by hand. This allows quick and easy
attachment of the load. Set directional lever to unload position and
release pawls as shown in Figure 2.

INSTRUCTIONS
Preventative Maintenance
2. Attachment To The Load: The CM Rigger can be used in any posi-
tion provided it is rigged to pull in a straight line from hook to hook.
It is important that the frame is free to swivel on the upper hook.
Under no condition should the frame be allowed to touch the load
or bear on any support when in use as this might cause bending of
the hook or frame and possible failure. When operating in limited
areas, it is recommended that attachments or slings be used to
keep the frame and handle from being obstructed.
3. Operation (see Safety Procedures): After attachment of load, the
slack in the chain can be taken up by pulling on the end ring
attached to the loose end of the chain. Set directional lever to
“load”. Operate the handle up and down and the load will be
pulled or tensioned. Shift directional lever to “unload” position and
load will be loosened one tooth at a time by the same operation of
the handle. When operating the handle, make certain that the load
is retained by the Rigger before releasing handle.
