Operating safety
The swivel arm hoist must be set up and dismantled according to this operating manual
and under supervision by expert personnel specified by the employer.
Set up and secure the swivel arm hoist so it is stable.
Observe swivel arm hoist lifting capacity:
Only use the swivel arm hoist in technically fault-free condition and in a safety and risk
conscious manner, while observing the operating manual.
Keep the hanging load under constant observation from the operating position.
Do not stand or work beneath the hanging load!
Faults which could impair safety must be remedied as soon as possible.
If there are any changes to the swivel arm hoist which affect its safety or operating
behaviour, shut down the swivel arm hoist immediately and report the malfunction to the
company management or their authorized representative.
Do not carry out any changes, mount parts on or make conversions to the swivel arm
hoist.
Do not start the swivel arm hoist if persons could be endangered by the swivel arm hoist,
the load suspension device or the load. Cordon off the swivel arm hoist's danger zone and
attach warning notices (Caution Construction Lift).
Do not carry out any changes, mount parts on or make conversions to the machine. This
also applies to installing and adjusting safety features, such as e.g. limit switches.
Do not change, remove, override or bypass safety devices.
Immediately renew damaged and/or removed notices and warning signs as well as safety
labels.
In situations that present a risk for the operating personnel or the
swivel arm hoist, the swivel arm hoist can be shutdown by
pressing the EMERGENCY STOP button (1) on the manual
control.
Stop and run the swivel arm hoist down if wind speeds are
>72 km/h. (Wind force 7-8, wind moves trees and impedes
pedestrians!)
