SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
13
ATTENTION
Damage to the lifting device from operation in areas with acidic or alkaline
materials or in contaminated atmospheres.
►
Consult with the manufacturer before operating in an area with aggressive
atmospheric conditions.
The lifting device
can be operated at temperatures between 3° C and +40° C
The permissible temperature range is determined by the types of oil used in the gasoline motor and the
vacuum pump.
ATTENTION
Damage to the lifting device due to use outside of the permitted temperature
range
►
Only use the lifting device at the permitted ambient temperature.
►
Consult with the manufacturer before operating outside of the permissible
temperature range.
Workplace requirements
The operator’s workplace is at the operator handle. Ensure that the operator can constantly
monitor the
entire workspace. The workplace must be lit sufficiently and glare-free.
Ensure the area around the workplace is always clean and tidy by providing appropriate internal
instructions and conducting checks.
ATTENTION
Damage to the lifting device from small parts being sucked in
►
Keep the location of use and vicinity of the lifting device free of small parts that
might get sucked in.
Danger zone definition
•
The danger zone is the area inside or in the vicinity of working equipment that poses a hazard or
potential hazard to the health of persons located within this area.
•
Lifting the load or transporting may result in the load and the lifting device falling or being lowered.
Therefore, as a basic principle, the area directly below the lifting device is a danger zone.
•
During horizontal transport, note that lifting, horizontal acceleration and braking of the load may cause
it to rotate, tilt or swing. The vicinity of the load is therefore a danger zone.
•
Maintain a safe distance from the moving load.
•
Never walk in front of the load
–
unexpected obstacles could cause you to trip while the load is
approaching you. The load also swings in your direction when horizontal travel is stopped. It is not
possible to watch/monitor both the transport path and the load at the same time.
•
In the event that the load falls, the danger zone depends greatly on the transport height and is
therefore difficult to assess. Loads should always be suspended as close to the floor as possible.
