SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Installing or operating this hoist without first understanding proper installation and opera
-
tion procedures could lead to serious injury or death. Always read and fully understand
all installation and operation manuals before installing or operating this equipment. Con-
tact Primary Mover with any questions.
WARNING
!
Overloading a trailer could cause vehicle or trailer component damage
resulting in injury or death. NEVER exceed the gross vehicle weight (GVW) or gross
axle weight (GAW) rating of the trailer or your vehicle.
WARNING
!
Damage to brake lines during manufacturing and installation of the hoist,
as well as installing any hardware (bolts, nuts, brackets) in a way that they may rub
and damage the brake system, could lead to brake failure. This can cause an accident
that could cause injury or death. ALWAYS take adequate steps to prevent brake sys
-
tem damage during installation of the hoist, and take precaution to ensure that installed
equipment does not interfere with brake system.
WARNING
!
Malfunctioning equipment could cause property damage, injury or death.
ALWAYS have faulty equipment repaired before continuing use. Consult the trailer
manufacturer if required.
WARNING
!
Welding, oxy-fuel cutting, or grinding could cause fuel to ignite. This
could lead to injury or death. ALWAYS take adequate steps to avoid the ignition of fuel
from fuel tanks when welding, oxy-fuel cutting, and/or grinding during installation.
Heat from the vehicles exhaust system could cause hydraulic component failure. This
could lead to a fire that can lead to injury or death. ALWAYS install equipment in loca
-
tions where the exhaust system heat will not damage any components critical to opera-
tion.
WARNING
!
Never attempt to jerk or shock the trailer body with the body raised to
remove a stuck load. Jerking or shocking the trailer in this position can cause dam-
age that could result in injury or even death. NEVER drive forward or reward and stop
quickly to “un-stick” the load. If load is stuck, lower trailer body and free load.
