1. General
The permitted capacities of the engine room crane, lifting equipment, ropes, chains,
eye bolts, etc must always be related to the weights of the parts to be lifted. For more
data, refer to 0360 − 1 Masses (Weights)).
Note: The maximum permitted load in kg is related to the Work Load Limit
(WLL).
For the removal, installation and movement of engine components, use only the
correct serviceable tools and equipment. Replace damaged equipment with
serviceable items.
For the safe and correct operation of the engine room crane, it is recommended that
you do as follows:
D Make sure that you know the weight of the load.
D Find the centers of the load.
D Use only the applicable equipment.
D Make sure that you correctly attach and remove the the equipment.
2. Equipment
2.1 Wire Rope Slings
The WLL of the wire rope slings is given with their tool numbers in 9403 − 5 Tool List.
2.2 Span Sets
Span sets are easy to use. The code and the color usually show the maximum
permitted load. Loops and knots in the span-sets decrease their WLL by one third.
2.3 Eye Bolts and Eye Nuts
Use only eye bolts and eye nuts that have the standards given in DIN 580 and DIN
582: 2003 − 08.
Where eye bolts and eye nuts are used, the standards are calculated from DIN 580
and DIN 582: 2003 − 08 and the results shown in Table 1 below.
