4.
The user’s control board must be grounded in accordance with the electrical codes that are applicable in
the local area. Power cable to chain hoists must include a ground conductor. The power cable includes a
yellow/green ground conductor.
5. The installation area must provide safe operating conditions for the operator, including sufficient room for
the operator and other personnel to stand clear of the load at all times.
RIGGING THE HOIST:
1. Before each use, visually inspect the hoist and all load bearing parts of the hoist, like hook and chain.
2. Make sure the intended structural support component is able to safely absorb the chain hoist lifting capacity.
3. Attach the chain bag to the chain bag ring.
4. Put the chain into the chain bag and make sure there are no twists or knots in the chain in the chain bag.
5. Attach the chain hook to the main structural support member, either direct to an existing eyebolt or lug-plate,
or using a bracket or beam clamp. It is also possible to use a sling or bridle. Avoid slinging on sharp edges.
6. Connect the power (and control) cable and make sure these will have proper stress relieves and sufficient
slack in every direction of planned tilting of the load. Use Velcro or cable-strings to tie the cable to the hoist
body or lifting hook.
7. Lower the chain hook by letting the chain run out to the required height.
8. Put the load under the chain hook.
9. Attach the load to the chain hook, either to a lug plate, eyebolt or using one or more slings.
10. Run the chain up until the load chain just taut.
11. Check all lifting and slinging connections, and lift the load until it is freely floating of the ground.
12. Visually check the whole lifting structure from chain hoist and cable through the load chain down to the
load.
