NOTE! Other lifting devices may apply that affect the load combination
. See the appli-
cable documentation.
Lateral forces occur e.g. when pressure is applied to the lifting trolley or the load, or by
pulling using a tool or other machine part on the platform. If a lateral force is applied to
the load, the tipping angle will increase.
Always observe the utmost caution as it is very difficult to determine how great the cur-
rent lateral force is.
To achieve safe and efficient operation, the lifting trolley may be fitted with several dif-
ferent types of lifting devices. The current capacity for the lifting trolley with accessories
is shown in the instruction manual and in the marking on the lifting device.
If the lifting trolley is altered in relation to its original design as delivered, the
original CE marking no longer applies.
In addition to the built-in safety features, additional safety measures may be necessary
to the lifting trolley or in its vicinity. Discuss appropriate measures with a Hallins repre-
sentative or with a safety officer or equivalent.
We recommend that a Risk analysis is prepared based on the Machinery Directive for
the relevant working situation.
Platform extensions, unevenly distributed loads, point loads or horizontal loads are not
permitted, unless this has been specified as permitted for the case in question. Selec-
tion of the appropriate lifting trolley is based on the load requirements that apply for
each individual application.
The lifting trolley is dimensioned according to the following load
combinations:
• 100% of the rated load spread over the entire surface of the
platform
• Point loads not permitted
• The load’s centre of gravity is assumed to be in the centre of the
platform
• Lateral forces not permitted
