WARNING:
User exposure to tool vibration can result in loss of sense of touch, numbness, tingling
and reduced ability to grip. Long term exposure can lead to a chronic condition. If necessary limit
the length of time exposed to vibration. Use the figures provided in the specification relating to
vibration if provided to calculate the duration and frequency of operating the tool. The 2002/44/EC
directive relating to vibration in the workplace may provide useful information even for domestic
use of tools. In the first instance of feeling uncomfortable due to vibration STOP using the tool
immediately.
WARNING:
Always wear ear protection where the sound level exceeds 85dB(A) and limit the time
of exposure if necessary. If sound levels are uncomfortable even with ear protection stop using the
tool immediately and check the ear protection is correctly fitted and provides the right level of sound
attenuation for the level of sound produced by your tool.

Hoist Support Arm Safety
• Ensure use of personal protective equipment (PPE) when installing/operating this device. Wear a
hard hat and protective gloves at all times.
• Before installation, ensure the mounting facility fits the requirements for the support arm.
Assess whether the fitting is the correct dimensions, height, and position for lifting loads, and no
obstructions will interfere with the hoist’s path when operational.
• Frequently check all fastening components, the components of this support arm will be under
large amounts of strain. Assemble using all mounting components, do not omit any components
during assembly.
• Do not assemble alone. The support arm is heavy and may require being configured at a height,
always seek help when installing/setting-up.
• Ensure compatibility and secure fitment with the hoist. Corresponding load capacities are
detailed within the instruction manual and need to be adhered to.
• When selecting a mounting pole, check the pole is capable of supporting the load of the hoist
when under full load. A secure mounting base is required, seek security in a firm mounting base
of concrete with gusset supports if possible.
• Never lift people or animals using the hoist. When operating the hoist always keep bystanders,
and animals away from the load.
