DO NOT elevate the drum more than a few inches from the ground. Only lift a drum as high as necessary to avoid
contact with objects in the travel path.
DO NOT remove or obscure any label. Verify the placement and legibility of all labels as shown in the Label
Placement Diagram on p. 5. DO NOT use this device UNLESS all product labels (see “Label Placement Diagram”) are
readable, undamaged, and fastened securely to the DRUM-GRAB.
DO NOT sit on or apply any weight/pressure to a suspended drum.
DO NOT use the Drum-Grab to lift material over people or to lift any apparatus that supports people, such as a work
platform.

immobilize it, and then disengage the Drum-Grab from the drum.
DO NOT modify—including disassembling and reassembling--the Drum-Grab in any way UNLESS you first obtain
written approval from Vestil. Unauthorized modifications automatically void the limited warranty (see p. 6) and might
