1. Introduction
Some important points to start with: This manual provides instructions for safety and
reliability of your hoist and trolley. It is not a substitute for the accident prevention
regulations (UVV) of the German Berufsgenossenschaft or all the other numerous
standards which are different in other countries. You have to know all these regulations
when operating this hoist or trolley! We suppose that all these local rules will be
substituted by European regulations since the E.C. has one common market. But the
sence of any regulation is the same:
to prevent accidents!
Please mind these regulations and warnings strictly! In the Federal Republic of
Germany there are following „UVVs“ important: UVV 18.1, UVV 7, UVV 18.4, UVV
1, UVV 3, UVV 4, UVV 8, VBG 7a and mainly the European Machine-Regulations
Number 89/392 and 91/368 beside other DIN-standards..
PLANETA hoists and trolleys are intended to be safe and reliable assistants. For this
reason, we have written this operation manual. But it’s only serving its purpose in the
hands of the user. It is worthless in a hidden fi le. If you need further copies, we shall be
pleased to forward them. Mind these instructions also in regard of your purse: wrong
maintenance, unproper use or accidents owing to miswatching of regulations exclude
our guarantee and liability.
To maintain working safety, repairs may only be carried out by trained mechanics and
only original Planeta-spare parts should be used. It is important that only Planeta-
trained mechanics perform such repairs; they know which and when spare parts have
to be changed. The installation of foreign spares is a safety risk and results in loss of
guarantee.
55- our agencies and service points are at your disposal at any time. Ask fi rst your
distributor where you bought the hoist. His name should be on a sticker at the hoist, or
have a look in the invoice. If you cannot locate his name, we are pleased to help you
by mentioning of fabrication number.

To order original-Planeta-spare parts please refer to the spare parts list belonging
to this manual. It is important to note that after any maintenance or repair work, all
functions must be checked before putting the hoist back into service. If you follow these
instructions, you will always be satisfi ed with your PLANETA-equipment.
